Since 1925 St. Paul's Monastery has been holding Novena Services on Mondays.
A Novena is a special prayer service, a prayerful devotion asking God's blessings for a special need… for example, a loved one who is sick, a family member in the armed services, a job search, or a friend undergoing an operation.
At St. Paul's Monastery the Novena prayers are addressed to St. Paul of the Cross, St. Gabriel, and St. Gemma. These are Passionist saints, members of God's heavenly family, who are asked to intercede for our intentions -- to pray for us and for our needs.
Over the years many such intercessory prayers have been said, and God has blessed those who have cared enough to bring their needs to God through the Novena prayers.
Please call the Monastery Office at 412-381-1188 for Novena times.
