St. Martha

St. Martha

Novena to St. Martha

St. Martha, I resort to your aid and protection.
As proof of my affection and faith,
I offer you this light,
which I shall burn every Tuesday.

Comfort me in all my difficulties
and through the great favors you did enjoy
when the Saviour was lodged in your house,
intercede for my family,
that we be provided for in our necessities.

I ask of thee, St. Martha,
to overcome all difficulties
as you did overcome the dragon
which you had at your feet.

Say Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be.

Amen.

My go to in all distractions. St Martha inspires focus on doing what is really important. She also helps to improvise when everything is working against your efforts. To pray when you are so behind and you feel overwhelmed. It is the girl team as I call it…Our Lady, St. Anne, St. Rita, St Martha, St Frances Xavier Cabrini and St Philomena, and St Dymphna.

My Nana used this Novena all her life. She passed her prayer card on to me. This gracious saint has granted me all of my needs.

” What a treasured memory to have of your Nana. St Martha has helped me as well and it was my mom’s prayer card that I had which I found inspiring. I had a kids typewriter and she gave it to me to practice my typing.

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

My mother would pray to St. Martha especially when money was tight. We would pray this Novena with her and light a candle. We never went without anything and felt the love and protection. St. Martha pray for us.
