Our wordsmiths craft a prayer that enables you to includes your specific request.
After this we design the cards and fact sheet, print it and laminate the cards.

Our Story
Experiencing the Power of Prayer
(This is a true story)
Some of the people involved in our business have personally experienced the power of prayer and the gifts of a Novena.
"Years ago a close friend's young daughter had a terrible, life-threatening accident.
"I prayed to Mary Mother of God for her to recover.
"Each day I went to the church, lit a candle in front of the statue of Our Lady then
I knelt in prayer.
"Every day the reports were the same, she was still in a coma.
"Then one morning word came through that the doctors did not expect her to live,
they prepared her parents for the worst.
"The report was that if she did regain consciousness she would have very little
brain activity and that she would never recover.
"This news touched me deeply. My heart broke for her parents, for her brother and sister and for her. She was a bright, bubbly young girl whose friendly nature
made her very popular at school and in the neighbourhood.
"To lose such a promising life seemed to me to be unjust.
"That day I went to the church with pain in my heart. I lit the candle and knelt to pray, but I was so upset I couldn't pray.
"So I sat on the front pew and looked into the eyes of Our Lady's statue and talked to her directly.
"I spoke to Mary, herself a mother who felt the pain of losing a child.
"Then I prayed like I have never prayed before. Tears poured down my face, the pain in my heart was palpable.
"As I prayed waves of emotion flowed through me, I became so upset. Then, out of nowhere, I went from crying to an unearthly calm place.
"There are no words to explain this feeling of calm. If you have experienced it you
will know what I mean.
"If you have never been there my wish is that one day you experience it. It is truly beyond words, it is as if you are completely held in the hands of God.
"There was no emotions, no feelings, just this sensation that there was no more need to pray.
"I left the church and went home. I phoned the hospital.
"My friend came on the phone, her voice was so bright and cheery.
"She told me that a few minutes before my phone call her daughter unexpectedly came out of her coma, looked at her mother and said "Where has Bernadette gone?"
"My friend explained Saint Bernadette is her daughter's confirmation saint and the
only Bernadette the family knows.
"To the doctor's amazement she not only came out of the coma but showed no signs of brain damage only a small amount of memory loss.
"Today she is married with children and living her life to the fullest.
"A medical miracle? To me she is the living proof of the power of prayer.
"I know what I experienced and I know that Mary listened to my request and that
through her the Lord granted it."
