Day 2: Novena Prayer to St. Peter Chanel
April 20, 2026
To enrich the Marist Project with the fire of the Holy Spirit given as a gift to Marists in their vocational call.
Lord, send your Holy Spirit upon our communities. May they bear witness to your mercy and concern for the poorest wherever they may be.
Loving God, you inspired Jean-Claude Colin to live a life faithful to the Gospel and in the spirit of Mary. If it is your will that he be honored as a saint to the glory of your name, please show us the favor he enjoys in your sight by granting us an increase of vocation through his intercession. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
