Novenas

Cenacle of Life

Our Cenacle of Life meets every Tuesday evening, after the 5:30 p.m. Mass to "pray two Rosaries (10 mysteries) offering the rosaries up with fasting. Member fasts one day a week on bread and water, to end the culture of death. Those that cannot fast on bread and water, due to sickness or age, can offer up a day of fasting from their favorite thing (such as watching television or talking on the telephone.) They offer up their fasts -- at the prayer group -- with the rosaries prayed. The group prays for:

The Prayer for the Protection of Religious Liberty
The first Cenacle Rosary, using the Cenacle of Life meditations. We sing Ave Ave! between the decades.
The pray to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The second Cenacle of Life Rosary, using the Cenacle of Life meditations."

"A 'cenacle' is a prayer group that prays the way the Blessed Mother and the Apostles prayed in the Upper Room, awaiting the Holy Spirit at Pentacost."

"We ask that you join us in praying and fasting for an end to abortion, and all crimes against life."

Every Wednesday evening, after the 5:30 p.m. Mass, there is a Novena to St. Joseph. All are welcome to join us. One Mass a month at 5:30 p.m. is celebrated in honor of St. Joseph.

Novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague

The Infant Jesus of Prague Prayer Society meets on the 17th day of each month, usually at 1:00 p.m. depending on the Church schedule. At the time a novena, a litany to IJP, and special prayer intentions are said.

The Infant Jesus of Prague Prayer Society was established on December 17, 2007, after the installation and dedication of the statue of the Infant Jesus on the feast of Christ the King that same year.
