April 2026 Novenas and Prayers

Hello Novena pray-ers of the St Faustina Shrine/Society to the month of April 2026.

We always have a lot to be thankful for and to pray for. Thank you for praying with us.

I hope everyone is safe and well. Let us also, remember to pray for peace in the world, Ukraine and the conversion of Russia.

Make sure you go to confessions for Divine Mercy Sunday.

1. Holy Thursday April 2

Let us pray:

 My Most Precious Lord Jesus, this night You gathered with Your Apostles to share with them Your last meal.  But this was no ordinary meal.  This was the gift of Your most Sacred Body and Blood, soon to be broken and poured out on the Cross for the salvation of the world.  

Allow me, dear Lord, to spend this night in prayer and meditation with You.  After the meal, You invited Your Apostles to join You for one hour, to stay awake and keep vigil as You prepared for Your arrest.  The Apostles fell asleep, leaving You in Your bitter agony alone.

I accept Your gentle invitation of love, dear Lord, to spend this night in vigil with You.  May I enter Your Heart as it faced the coming persecution You were to endure for my sins.  May I console Your Sacred Heart and know the love and Mercy that flowed forth.

Lord, when I face the crosses of my own life, give me Your divine courage and strength to say “Yes” to the Will of the Father.  Your love for me is abundant and is perfect in every way.  Help me to know that love, to embrace it and to allow it into my life.

I make my vigil with You this night, dear Lord.  I love You, help me to love You with all my heart.  Jesus, I trust in You. Amen.

2. Starting Good Friday: April 3 thru 11th The Divine Mercy Novena which our Lord wanted said especially from Good Friday to Divine Mercy Sunday April 12. Follow the link to The National Shrine of The Divine Mercy, Divine Mercy Novena:

3. April 11 ‎Prayer to St Stanislaus: 

St. Stanislaus Papczynski 

Prayer to Obtain Graces Through the Intercession of Saint Stanislaus Papczyński
Saint Stanislaus, gracious intercessor before God, defender of the oppressed and patron of those in mortal danger, you always zealously served Jesus and His Immaculate Mother for the salvation of immortal souls, and you took pity on every misery. Trusting in your intercession, I have recourse to you, and I ask that you do not deny me your help. By your earnest prayers, obtain for me from God the grace ... (mention your prayer intentions), and help me, all my life long, to fulfill the will of the Heavenly Father. Amen.

4. Remember Fatima Holy Hour of Mercy for Reparation will be Mon April 13 3-4pm at the St Faustina Shrine. I will send the prayers soon.

5. Wednesday April 29 Let us pray to ST Catherine of Siena.

Love Undefiled

Eternal God, eternal Trinity,
You have made the Blood of Christ so precious
through His sharing in Your Divine nature.
You are a mystery as deep as the sea;
the more I search, the more I find,
and the more I find the more I search for You.
But I can never be satisfied;
what I receive will ever leave me desiring more.
When You fill my soul, I have an ever-greater hunger,
and I grow more famished for Your light.
I desire above all to see You,
the true light, as you really are. Amen. (By St Catherine of Siena)
