An hour of Adoration, worship, and teaching to answer the question, “How do I prepare to receive the holy Spirit at Pentecost?”
Novena to the Holy Spirit
Begin each day by reciting the following prayer...
O Holy Spirit, Divine Consoler! I adore you as my True God. I bless you by uniting myself to the praises you receive from the angels and saints. I offer you my whole heart, and I render you heartfelt thanks for all the benefits you have bestowed and do unceasingly bestow upon the world. You are the author of all supernatural gifts and who did enrich with immense favors the soul of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. I beseech you to visit me by your grace and your love, and grant me the favor I so earnestly seek in this novena.
Pause in silence and mention your request...
O Holy Spirit, Spirit of Truth, come into our hearts: shed the brightness of your light on all nations, that they may be of one faith and pleasing to you. Amen.
Then recite the prayer of the appropriate day...
DAY SEVEN (Thursday)
Come, Holy Spirit, creator of all things: come visit our hearts with your power. Fill with grace, friendly guest, the hearts which you have created. You are called the Consoler, gift from the hand of God, source of life, light, love, and flame, highest good. You are the pledge of sevenfold grace, finger of the Father’s hand, promised us by Him, and you make our tongues speak the truth. Cast light on our senses, pour love into our hearts. Grant our weak bodies strength that they may never grow weary of doing good and grant us the favors we so earnestly seek in this novena.
Keep the enemy far from us, give us peace always, let us willingly follow in your footsteps that we may be far removed from sin. Grant that through you we may grow in knowledge of the Father and of the Son, and that we may ever strongly believe in you, the Spirit of both. Praise and honor be forever to the Father on the highest throne, in the risen Son of God, in the Consoler. Amen.
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you shall renew the face of the earth. Amen.
