1. THE
9-DAY
NOVENA

2. ACT OF CONTRITION
 O, My God, I am heartily sorry for
having offended thee, and I detest all my
sins because I dread the loss of Heaven
and the pains of Hell, but most of all
because they offended you, my God, who
are all- good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve with the help of thy grace,
to confess my sins, to do penance, and to
amend my life. Amen.

3. OPENING PRAYER TO
PADRE PIO
 Dear Padre Pio, for 50 years your body
bore the wounds of Christ and you suffered
willingly as a victim for others. You never
took off the crown of thorns yet always had
time to talk, to listen and to pray. Intercede
for me now, for you once said “As the pearls
are held together by a thread, thus virtues
are held together by charity; as the pearls
fall when the thread breaks, thus virtues
are lost if charity diminishes.” Amen.
