Efficacious Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

N.B.This novena prayer was recited every day by Padre Pio for all those who asked for
prayers. The faithful are invited to recite it daily, so as to be spiritually united with the
prayer of Padre Pio.

I.O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, ask and it will be given you, seek and
you will find, knock and it will be opened to you.” Behold I knock, I seek and ask for the
grace of [insert your intention.]

Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory be to the Father…Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my

Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory be to the Father…Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, for whom it is impossible not to have compassion on the
afflicted, have pity on us miserable sinners and grant us the grace which we ask of you,

Say the Hail, Holy Queen and add: St. Joseph, foster father of Jesus, pray for us.
 Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary (For Young People)
Virgin of Fatima, my dearly beloved Mother, I who belong to the Marian Movement of
Priests, consecrate myself today, in a very special way, to your Immaculate Heart.
By this solemn act, I offer my whole life to you; my heart, my soul, my body and
especially this time of my youth in which I am now living.
Guide me along the way that Jesus has traced out for us: the way of love, of goodness
and of sanctity.
Help me to flee from sin, from evil and from egoism, and to resist temptations to
violence, to impurity and to drugs.
I promise you to go to confession often and to receive Jesus into my heart as my
spiritual food of life, to observe the commandments of God, to walk along the road of
love and of purity, and to recite the holy rosary daily.
I want to be a witness of unity by my great love for the Pope, for my bishop and for my
priests.
I love you, O sweetest Mother of mine, and I offer you my youth for the triumph of your
Immaculate Heart in the world.

Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of

Mary (For Religious and Laity)
Virgin of Fatima, Mother of Mercy, Queen of Heaven and Earth, Refuge of Sinners, we
who belong to the Marian Movement of Priests consecrate ourselves in a very special
way to your Immaculate Heart.
By this act of consecration we intend to live, with you and through you, all the
obligations assumed by our baptismal consecration. We further pledge to bring about in
ourselves that interior conversion so urgently demanded by the Gospel, a conversion
that will free us of every attachment to ourselves and to easy compromises with the
world so that, like you, we may be available only to do always the Will of the Father.
And as we resolve to entrust to you, O Mother most sweet and merciful, our life and
vocation as Christians, that you may dispose of it according to your designs of salvation
in this hour of decision that weighs upon the world, we pledge to live it according to your
desires, especially as it pertains to a renewed spirit of prayer and penance, the fervent
participation in the celebration of the Eucharist and in the works of the apostolate, the
daily recitation of the holy rosary, and an austere manner of life in keeping with the
Gospel, that shall be to all a good example of the observance of the Law of God and the
practice of the Christian virtues, especially that of purity.
We further promise you to be united with the Holy Father, with the hierarchy and with
our priests, in order thus to set up a barrier to the growing confrontation directed against
the Magisterium, that threatens the very foundation of the Church.
Under your protection, we want moreover to be apostles of this sorely needed unity of
prayer and love for the Pope, on whom we invoke your special protection.
And lastly, in so far as is possible, we promise to lead those souls with whom we come
in contact to a renewed devotion to you.
Mindful that atheism has caused shipwreck in the faith to a great number of the faithful,
that desecration has entered into the holy temple of God, and that evil and sin are
spreading more and more throughout the world, we make so bold as to lift our eyes
trustingly to you, O Mother of Jesus and our merciful and powerful Mother, and we
invoke again today and await from you the salvation of all your children, O clement, O
loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

 Prayer while Visiting the Most Blessed
Sacrament
My Lord Jesus Christ, for the love which You bear to men, You remain night and day in
this Sacrament full of compassion and of love, awaiting, calling, and welcoming all who
come to visit You. I believe that You are present in the Sacrament of the Altar: I adore
You from the abyss of my nothingness, and I thank You for all the graces which You
have bestowed upon me and in particular for having given me Yourself in this
Sacrament, for having given me your holy Mother Mary for my advocate, and for having
called me to visit You in this chapel. I now salute Your most loving Heart: and this for
three ends: 1. In thanksgiving for this great gift; 2. To make amends to You for all the
outrages which You receive in this Sacrament from all Your enemies; 3. I intend by this
visit to adore You in all the places on earth in which You are the least revered and the
most abandoned. My Jesus, I love You with all my heart. I grieve for having so many
times offended Your infinite goodness. I promise with Your grace never more to offend
You in the future. Now, miserable and unworthy though I be, I consecrate myself to You
without reserve; I give You my entire will, my affections, my desires, and all that I
possess. From now on dispose of me and of all that I have as You please. All that I ask
of You and desire is Your holy love, final perseverance, and the perfect accomplishment
of Your will. I recommend to You the souls in purgatory; but especially those who had
the greatest devotion to the most Blessed Sacrament and to the Blessed Virgin Mary. I
also recommend to You all poor sinners. My dear Saviour, I unite all my affections with
the affections of Your most loving Heart; and I offer them, thus united, to Your eternal
Father, and beseech Him in Your name to vouchsafe, for Your love, to accept them.
Amen.

A Student's Prayer (by St. Thomas Aquinas)

Come, Holy Spirit, Divine Creator, true source of light and fountain of wisdom! Pour
forth your brilliance upon my dense intellect, dissipate the darkness which covers me,
that of sin and of ignorance. Grant me a penetrating mind to understand, a retentive
memory, method and ease in learning, the lucidity to comprehend, and abundant grace
in expressing myself. Guide the beginning of my work, direct its progress, and bring it to
successful completion. This I ask through Jesus Christ, true God and true man, living
and reigning with You and the Father, forever and ever. Amen.

The Most Powerful Healing Prayer of St. Padre

Pio of Pietrelcina

Heavenly Father, I thank you for loving me.

I thank you for sending your Son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ, to the world to save and to set me free.
I trust in your power and grace that sustain and restore me.
 
Loving Father,
 touch me now with your healing hands,
for I believe that your will is for me to be well in mind, body, soul and spirit.
Cover me with the most precious blood of your Son,
our Lord, Jesus Christ from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.
Cast anything that should not be in me.
Root out any unhealthy and abnormal cells.
Open any blocked arteries or veins and rebuild and replenish any damaged areas.
Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection
by the power of Jesus’ precious blood.
Let the fire of your healing love pass through my entire body
to heal and make new any diseased areas
so that my body will function the way you created it to function.
Touch also my mind and my emotion,
even the deepest recesses of my heart.
 
Saturate my entire being with your presence,
love, joy and peace and draw me ever closer to you every moment of my life.
And Father, fill me with your Holy Spirit
and empower me to do your works
so that my life will bring glory and honour to your holy name.
I ask this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
Amen.
