These newly composed novena prayers provide opportunities to develop our prayer life throughout the year. Each season and feast has its own themes and focus; the wonder of the Incarnation and news of Jesus's birth, the contemplative period of Lent and the joy of Easter, and the example of Mary as her life story is told through her feast days. These novenas open up the feasts of the Church's year for us and we learn more of novenas as a form of prayer.
