Join us in praying the Novena to the Risen Jesus!

The Resurrection of Jesus is the most significant and profound event to ever take place in our world. When Jesus rose from the dead, He triumphed over sin and death. He defeated the work of Satan, and He opened the gates of Heaven for each one of us. 

We should contemplate the greatness of the Resurrection and meditate on what it means for us in particular. We should seek to grow closer to Our Risen Lord in our lives. 

We can consider how the Resurrection was the ultimate manifestation of God’s power, and we can take joy in knowing that Jesus is stronger even than death.

Let’s offer prayers in this Novena to the Risen Jesus, that we and the whole world may grow closer to Our Risen Lord and may come to truly appreciate the significance of Jesus’ Resurrection from the dead!
