Novenas

[CatholicFireman]

Hi everybody,

I was wondering if novenas had to be said at the same time every day. I usually say them at night, but on work days I say them before I go to work (4 am).

While I’m at it, if you can find it in your hearts to pray for my family, especially my daughter, it would be greatly appreciated. Doesn’t have to be a novena, but maybe to Our Lady?

God Bless my CAF family.

Even if timing were important, and I don’t think it is…,
I am pretty sure God doesn’t hold firefighters to the same standards as the rest of us in the “time department”!

Peace & prayers for you and your family! :hug1:

No. To think otherwise is to head into the area of superstition and Catholics need to be very very careful never to get superstitious.

Good! And that’s the reassurance I needed. Thank-you, ladies!

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother;
to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

I know some people do try to do it at the same time everyday. Not because of superstition, but so it can be a consistent schedule they can work with. As long as the prayers are done, you’re good.
