Description

Before He ascended into Heaven, Jesus instructed His Apostles to remain in Jerusalem for Pentecost and to pray for the Holy Spirit.

These ‘nine days’ have given rise to the Christian ‘novena’ or nine days of fervent prayer, in preparation for important feasts or for special needs or intentions.

With St Philip Neri, as his guide, Fr Bochanski leads us through nine days of prayer, each linked to a fruit of the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

With down-to-earth reflections from St Phillip and Cardinal Newman included, this booklet can be used at any time throughout the year.
