CHURCH NOVENAS

Day 1 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

Why do you confuse yourselves by worrying? Leave the care of your affairs to me and everything will be peaceful. I say to you in truth that every act of true, blind, complete surrender to me produces the effect that you desire and resolves all difficult situations.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Day 2 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

Surrender to me does not mean to fret, to be upset, or to lose hope, nor does it mean offering to me a worried prayer asking me to follow you and change your worry into prayer. It is against this surrender, deeply against it, to worry, to be nervous and to desire to think about the consequences of anything.

It is like the confusion that children feel when they ask their mother to see to their needs, and then try to take care of those needs for themselves so that their childlike efforts get in their mother’s way. Surrender means to placidly close the eyes of the soul, to turn away from thoughts of tribulation and to put yourself in my care, so that only I act, saying "You take care of it".

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Day 3 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

How many things I do when the soul, in so much spiritual and material need, turns to me, looks at me and says to me; "You take care of it", then closes it’s eyes and rests. In pain you pray for me to act, but that I act in the way you want. You do not turn to me, instead, you want me to adapt your ideas. You are not sick people who ask the doctor to cure you, but rather sick people who tell the doctor how to. So do not act this way, but pray as I taught you in the our Father:"Hallowed be thy Name", that is, be glorified in my need.

"Thy kingdom come", that is, let all that is in us and in the world be in accord with your kingdom. "Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven", that is, in our need, decide as you see fit for our temporal and eternal life. If you say to me truly: "Thy will be done", which is the same as saying: "You take care of it", I will intervene with all my omnipotence, and I will resolve the most difficult situations.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Day 4 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

You see evil growing instead of weakening? Do not worry. Close your eyes and say to me with faith: "Thy will be done, You take care of it". I say to you that I will take care of it, and that I will intervene as does a doctor and I will accomplish miracles when they are needed. Do you see that the sick person is getting worse? Do not be upset, but close your eyes and say "You take care of it". I say to you that I will take care of it, and that there is no medicine more powerful than my loving intervention. By my love, I promise this to you.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Day 5 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

And when I must lead you on a path different from the one you see, I will prepare you; I will carry you in my arms; I will let you find yourself, like children who have fallen asleep in their mother’s arms, on the other bank of the river. What troubles you and hurts you immensely are your reason, your thoughts and worry, and your desire at all costs to deal with what afflicts you.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Day 6 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

You are sleepless; you want to judge everything, direct everything and see to everything and you surrender to human strength, or worse - to men themselves, trusting in their intervention, - this is what hinders my words and my views. Oh how much I wish from you this surrender, to help you; and how I suffer when I see you so agitated! Satan tries to do exactly this: to agitate you and to remove you from my protection and to throw you into the jaws of human initiative. So, trust only in me, rest in me, surrender to me in everything.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.
👏🏼👏🏼 Great job praying today! 👏🏼👏🏼

 
Day 7 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

I perform miracles in proportion to your full surrender to me and to your not thinking of yourselves. I sow treasure troves of graces when you are in the deepest poverty. No person of reason, no thinker, has ever performed miracles, not even among the saints. He does divine works whosoever surrenders to God. So don’t think about it any more, because your mind is acute and for you it is very hard to see evil and to trust in me and to not think of yourself. Do this for all your needs, do this all of you and you will see great continual silent miracles. I will take care of things, I promise this to you.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.
👏🏼👏🏼 Great job praying today! 👏🏼👏🏼

 
Day 8 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

Close your eyes and let yourself be carried away on the flowing current of my grace; close your eyes and do not think of the present, turning your thoughts away from the future just as you would from temptation. Repose in me, believing in my goodness, and I promise you by my love that if you say "You take care of it" I will take care of it all; I will console you, liberate you and guide you.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.
👏🏼👏🏼 Great job praying today! 👏🏼👏🏼

 
Day 9 Prayer
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Daily Prayer

Pray always in readiness to surrender, and you will receive from it great peace and great rewards, even when I confer on you the grace of immolation, of repentance and of love. Then what does suffering matter? It seems impossible to you? Close your eyes and say with all your soul, "Jesus, you take care of it". Do not be afraid, I will take care of things and you will bless my name by humbling yourself. A thousand prayers cannot equal one single act of surrender, remember this well. There is no novena more effective than this.

O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Concluding Prayer

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.

Answered Prayers From This Novena

Praise God! I am healed.

He was with me all the time. All my blood results were normal and my surgery was with no complications. Thank you Lord!

from M.d.R.

Just before completing the second round of my Surrender Novena, my prayers were answered for my son to get a job, two months after he was laid off.

Praise God!

from C.C.

Thanks be to God for answering my novena prayers; before I finished praying this Surender Novena, my financial problem was solved.

My husband won a good amount of money as well. Thank you very much my dear Jesus and for the other blessings received.

I know that my request of healing from my cancer will also be granted. An overflowing thanksgiving and praising I am offering to the blessed mother Mary, St. Joseph, and to our Lord Jesus Christ Amen.

The Lord healed me of Stage 4 cancer. This Novena kept me grounded before, during, and after.

As I told the oncologist, Many people were praying for me and I received anointing before surgery from our pastor.

The medical community would try to place doubts. Yet I know Jesus Healed me. All following scopes and DNA tests show me clear.

All Glory to God: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

I needed a job but also had health issues. After praying the novena several times, through His grace, I found true liberation, an indescribable sense of peace, as I waited and served Him.

Praise God I was healed, and all tests came back negative, and a firm that interviewed me last year called me out of the blue and offered me a position more suited for my experience and with more pay. :)

Leaving worry, anxiety, fear and the future in His most capable hands, allows Him to give us wisdom and guidance, and is the most liberating experience ever. Thank you Lord.

I prayed Surrender Novena with you, and my prayer was answered!

I had been waiting for, and needing, a certain amount of money for quite some time.

The day I finished the Novena, the money was paid into my account. Thanks be to God.
More About the Surrender Novena

Where Did the Surrender Novena Come From?

Servant of God Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo was a diocesan priest and Franciscan tertiary who lived in the twentieth century.

Jesus Christ revealed to him this Surrender Novena and subsequently it has spread throughout the world.

Father Don Dolindo Ruotolo was an Italian priest, born in 1882, who received the stigmata (the wounds of Christ) and was praised by none other than Padre Pio (St. Pio of Pietrelcina), who said of him:

“The whole of paradise is in your soul,” and, when approached by pilgrims from Naples (where Fr. Ruotolo was from), “Why do you come here, if you have Don Dolindo in Naples? Go to him, he’s a saint!”

Fr. Ruotolo called himself “the Madonna’s little old man” and was devoted to Our Lady and the Rosary.

The Surrender Novena pleads that God will help us turn our problems and troubles over to Him, so that we do not worry over them or seek to solve them through human means alone.

Fr. Ruotolo died on November 19, 1970, at the age of 88.

The cause for his canonization has begun, and he has been recognized as Servant of God, the first level in the process.
