Church Parish Novena 2017

Between Divine Mercy Sunday and Pentecost Sunday, the celebration of our 40th Anniversary as a diocese, Bishop Fabre invites us to pray for our church parishes.  Please join Bishop Fabre and all the faithful in prayer for the renewal of our parishes.  Below is a suggested prayer for each day.

On this page, as well as a Church Parish Novena Prayer Card coming to your parish soon, you will find a church parish to pray for each day.  You can also download a copy of the prayer card by clicking the link below.

Novena Prayer

Holy Spirit, we ask that you would come in power this Pentecost and renew every church parish in the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux with the fire of your love.  In particular, today we ask your blessing upon [Parish of the Day].  Draw us together as one.  Strengthen the bond between our priests and laity and allow our unity to be a prophetic sign for our times.  Empower us in every way, that we might listen, discern, and follow you wherever you might lead us.  May your Kingdom come and your will be done.  Amen.
