Join us in praying the Novena for Nurses!

Nurses play a very important role in our society. Nurses assist doctors in treating the sick, attend to the physical needs of patients, and provide comfort in many situations.

Skilled and compassionate nurses are a great gift from God. He has blessed our modern world with many advancements in medical care, and nurses help provide that care.

Nurses can face many difficulties as they work to carry out their duties. Whether they care for patients in a hospital, a small clinic, or in a patient’s home, nurses can encounter many situations that are physically and emotionally demanding. 

In a special way that many people do not get the chance to practice, nurses have the opportunity to carry out Jesus’ command to serve Him through service to those in need. 

Let’s offer prayers in this Novena for Nurses that God will help all nurses to be both skilled and holy in their work.

Why Pray the Novena for Nurses?

You can pray the Novena for Nurses if you yourself are a nurse and are in need of assistance in your job. You can also pray the Novena for Nurses if you work with nurses who are in need of prayers. Or you can pray the Novena for Nurses if a loved one of yours is a nurse and is in need of prayers.

Additionally, you can use the Novena for Nurses to seek assistance from God for a group of nurses who work at a particular healthcare facility, or for a group of nurses who work caring for a particular group of patients.
