The Clonard Novena draws thousands of people each day to our Church and local community. We would ask motorists to follow the directions of the steward; in the car park and to have special consideration for local residents and their own parking requirements.

Prayer for the Novena 

We thank you, loving Father, 
forgiving us Mary the Mother 
of your Son,
to be our Mother 
of Perpetual Help.

We are grateful for all the favours 
we have received through her 
powerful intercession.

We pray that these past favours 
may inspire us to greater 
confidence in your loving mercy

We pray also that these nine days 
of
prayer may bring a special 
blessing on us, 
on our families, on our friends, 
on our neighbourhood and 
on our city

Grant this, through Christ 
Our Lord. Amen.
