  1. i thank God for everything He has done… Hallelujah … Amen
    i have been praying for this request for the last six years… My Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ have finally looked down upon me with great love, joy and peace… i finally got the visa out of this prison of a country I was born in … i am so grateful to everyone especially Paul and Annie for keeping this site and the email service in pristine condition… your efforts have helped me to have that long awaited encounter with Christ… This road has been long, treacherous and sometimes the light of Jesus’s love seemed all but a distant memory… Now at the end of this journey I feel it was worth every bit in terms of prayers, effort, diligence and heartbreak … & of course the intersession of the angels and saints!!! enough cannot be said to acknowledge their love and kindness… starting from my guardian angel, to the Archangels, St Michael, Raphael, St Joseph, St Monica , St Therese of Lisieux and Kolkata and St Pierre Frassati, and everybody in the celestial league… THANKS … Pray for us all. Amen
    I will be leaving for Australia soon.. Please pray for me and my family … Thanks everyone… God bless you all… If anybody out there is experiencing a phase of God forsaken-ness remember Joseph spent several years in prison, Moses had to wander in the desert for 40 years, Job’s house, health and family was destroyed in an instant & of course our Lord had to die to ransom captive Israel…
    Lord have mercy on us … Christ have mercy on us … Lord have mercy… Christ have mercy … Amen

  2. I am so thankful to God for answering my prayers. My wish during this novena has been fulfilled at the last day of the Novena. Thank you baby Jesus for answering my prayers. I wish that this coming season be blessing for us………………

    Amen

  3. To the glory of God. I am pregnant. I participated in the novena and believed God will put a smile on my face and he sure did. Thanks everyone.

  4. Glory be the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. Amen.

    For almost 2 years I’ve was trapped in a situation that I could not make any plans successful in my life. Every initiative that I took went waste. Faced a lot of financial loss, went into depression and most of all, I lost every single hope in my life.

    Something within me kept telling me that in the month of Dec 2016 you’ll find the hope to revive. On 30th Nov, I was working late and just few minutes into 1st Dec (I think few seconds) one old friend of mine got in touch with me.

    I believe it to be the beginning of a new life. That friend of mine appeared as a silver lining amongst the grey clouds. When I lost all my hope, when I was on the verge of losing all my faith in God, the Almighty Father came to my rescue.

    I still wonder how perfect his timing is. I hope to turn around things for good and leave the past behind and begin a new. My god my saviour came to help me out of the trials. Only thing that I now believe is that I’ll never give up praying. Seeking forgiveness for wrongs done and now making efforts to move on.

    “Though I fall, I will rise again”
    Micah 7.8

  5. Please Lord help my son Jake…He is suffering so badly and I am very worried about him…..I do not feel your presence at all….Can you give me something to show me you are here for us please….WE both are suffering and I just want him and I to be okay….Please Lord help us…

    Amen…

  6. I have been praying to God for success in my professional exam. I have been taking this exam for two years without succeeding, then I started this novenas and I asked God and mother Mary for directions as to when to take the exam and for ultimate success before the end of the year. I sat for the exam right after the Christmas novena and what seemed to be God’s appointed time and I passed with the minimum number of questions required to pass (75). I cannot thank God and mother Mary enough for this grace and favor because I know it was nothing but divine favor.

  7. I prayed for healing of my bladder, and had a CT scan this week, and everything was clear! I’m thankful there is nothing serious! Hoping good health continues!

  8. I have always wondered about God’s love for me. How do I know that he really and truly does. Well during this Novena I have been praying for a more deep relationship with God and to know that he is always there. In answer I have dreamt of God wrapping me in his arms and expressing his love for me. I do not remember the beginning or end of the dream; only that he held me in his arms and loved me. I can never doubt again. I thank God for his faithfulness.

  9. I have been praying for reconciliation between my husband and my parent.It was part of my intentions in this novena. During the novena,my husband called my parent and apologised. Their differences have been resolved.

  10. I have done 3 Novenas with no results…I am so besides myself with my depression, anxiety, and severe fibromyalgia….all the docs are blowing me off…I have 2 bulged discs…one in neck and the other in middle of back…says no surgery can correct it…says the pain I have down my spine from neck to low back is not from the bulges…yeah right! Please God show me where to go for help….be specific so I know it’s you helping me….
    Also please help my son with his medical conditions….I don’t want to lose him…..

    Amen..

  11. Happy Holidays John-Paul and Annie!

    My wife and I have been praying for our daughter over the past few novenas. Finally, after this Christmas novena, she is beginning to realize what is needed and initiate changes. The results have been mind-blowing and we wanted to thank you and everyone in the PrayMoreNoveans community! God has begun to work in her heart through what we have considered an impossible task. The road ahead will not be easy, but we know God is with us. Thanks to you, He has revealed to us His wonderful ways. Your ministry is truly a gift and a Godsend.
    Many blessings and we are always praying for both of you!

  12. During this Novena I prayed for my mother to reduce her drinking. I got a phone call from my dad saying that she has started reducing her alcohol consumption. I even witnessed this tonight. All praise and thanks to you my Baby Jesus. I love you. God is good all the time. All the time God is good.

  13. My daughter Carmen’s health has been restored! She was sick from Dec 3 -Dec 24. She had some type of virus that had her down. I was so worried it was viral meningitis but whatever it was when she woke up the last day of the Novena all symptoms were gone!

    Thank you Jesus
    Sincerely,
    Ali Giles

  14. Both of our young adult children attended Christmas Eve Mass with my husband and I. Thanks be to God! Please pray that they will attend Mass every Sunday and return to the sacraments.

  15. I have been blessed. Although our prayers for a baby gave not yet come to fruition, the Lord has show his mercy and grace in giving us restored fertility during the middle of this novena. And for this I am forever grateful and thank God every day. I have faith and trust in God and know God will show his strength in my life in this situation today and our prayer request for babies will come in his perfect time.

  16. During this novena I prayed for my children that they would return back to the church. I just heard from my son that the three families got together to attend the Christmas Day mass. Thank you to the Baby Jesus for the answered prayers.

  17. I prayed that my blood pressure would come down. When I saw the doctor on 12/23 it was within normal range. I will need to continue with medication but at least it is under control. I still have other problems but I know prayer helps.

  18. Merry Christmas to you all and thanks for praying the Immaculate Conception and Christmas Novenas with me. Thank you Mother Mary and baby Jesus for the graces granted and for prayers answered.

  24. I am grateful for this particular novena, and during this time I was praying for a legal case at our school. I entrusted this case to our Lord and kept covering it with the Blood of Jesus. The case was heard and all parties agreed to an amicable solution. The school is asked to help the student complete her senior year.
    Praise God.

  25. As we started this novena, I prayed for women who are looking to have a child so that God bless them to experience the wish of all women to be mother, I also prayed for my daughter in law who is experiencing problem to conceive, but my husband did not tell me that she was pregnant and he only called me last weekend to announce me that she have given birth to a baby girl and I praised the Lord for that.

  26. I had forgotten the first day of the Christmas novena. The prayer for that day was “Joy”. Suddenly I had a burst of joy in my spirit and in my heart, wondering why I was so joyous even though I was very sad.
    I started to praise and worship God, while doing so I heard in my spirit, you will have everything you want today. What I needed at that moment was Gods love, even though I had forgotten to start the novena, God did not forget me and he blessed me with his joy. I want to thank God for his love, I now know that God is love and not the things we want or need.

  27. Dear friends,
    My brother is in mid-twenties and never had a girlfriend. I was praying for a long time and on a Christmas Day turned out that he is not just a friend with one faithful, beautiful God’s creation- a very special and natural girl.
    Thank you God, bless them.

  28. Merry Christmas to all. As we prepare to organized a Carol prayer service in Sri-Lanka where in the area of non-Christians we couldn’t find a good organist as l start to pray the Christmas novena on the second day we got a good organist who agreed to play for a fair cost. Yesterday this event went well and the baby Jesus blessed us to give a love message about his birth to the people in that area. We got some good gifts from benefactors to distribute among the children in that area.
    Thank you Jesus and we praise You.

  29. Thank you Lord Jesus,Mother Mary,all Angels & Saints for granting Miracles Blessings upon my godson Frank to get this job in the Mines.Please make him do well in this new job far away,please bless him with good compatible helpful friendly superiors & working colleagues & make him do the best of his ability and be successful with a bright future.Amen

  30. Today I pray for justice for my children who suffer from relatives who are greedy for gains. I pray that justice will prevail and deliver us from the evil that I know of that is in our midst. This person will never be a mother to anyone especially my children. GOD give us the strength to stomp on our foes. No one has the rights to hurt children or their joys of being w their cousins. This is evil to erase their smiles and make them sad after having a good time. God I trust in you, I have faith in you that all my children will be with me. Deliver us from her evil ways to tear up my family. Her envy and evil will be crush.

  31. We received the great news this Christmas Eve that my daughter in law has conceived despite of abnormality that she was diagnosed she can not have a baby. I & my daughter in law joined in the novenas that began in October, and continued thru November up to Immaculate Conception and Christmas Novena. She learned and was confirmed that she was with a baby 2 days before Thanksgiving and she & my son decided to announce the good news to all of us last night the Eve of Christmas! This is the most beautiful miraculous gift Our Lord could ever have given to us- a baby, whose life God granted to our family. Thank You dear Father, Thank You dear Mother of God, your Son Jesus heard your prayer and ours.
    Holy Spirit we praise You for Your mighty work of love. Our hearts are swelling with so much love. We Praise You dear Jesus!!❤️

  32. In Nov of 2012 my father passed away. From that point on it seemed my family (mom and my three sisters) began falling apart. Two of my sisters were not speaking to each other, one sister not speaking to my mom. I live out of state and when I’d go home to visit, I would have to make separate plans with certain members just to be able to see them. I pleaded with them to forgive each other. I’ve prayed for family healing for so long. One of my prayer intentions during this Novena for was family healing and family unity. I learned that all three of my sisters were at my mom’s house on Christmas Eve and all went well. My mom was beyond happy … as am I. The power of prayer, the power of Novenas and the power of our Almighty God! I am beyond grateful!! Praise the Lord!!

  33. I have prayed for several intentions but an important one was for my son to discern whether he should ask his girlfriend to marry him. He bought a ring!!!
