Novena for Rain

Show HideJoin us in praying the Novena for Rain!
God created our entire universe, and He has blessed our world in many ways. In His providence, God has chosen to use rain to provide the water we need to live. We need water to drink, to grow our plants, and to become clean.
In our Catholic faith, we can see the rich symbolism of water as it is used in the sacrament of baptism to cleanse us from Original Sin. Water is a very significant part of our lives in many ways.
When we are in the midst of a drought, we depend on God to send us the rain we need. When we are in need of rain, we should turn to God to ask Him to send us the rain that is necessary for our sustenance.
Let’s offer prayers in this Novena for Rain that God will send rain to us and to all who need it.
