(Novenas are prayed once a day for nine days)

Father and Teacher of the Young,
In need of special help,
I appeal with confidence to you,
Saint John Bosco,
for I require not only spiritual graces,
but also temporal ones, and particularly…

(State Your Intention)

May you,
who on earth
had such great devotion to Jesus
in the Blessed Sacrament
and to Mary Help of Christians,
and who always had compassion
for those who were suffering,
obtain from Jesus
and His Heavenly Mother
the grace I now request,
and also a sincere resignation to the Will of God.

Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory Be…
