Novena in preparation for the Feast of St Angela


Today, 18th January, is the day for starting a novena in preparation for the feast of St Angela on 27th January, the day on which she died in Brescia in 1540. A way of praying this novena is to place yourself in the presence of Angela and reflecting with her on the text of the day, pray for the grace suggested by the extract. End with a Glory Be. Each day a fresh text will be posted.

DAY ONE: FIDELITY TO VOCATION

"Strive with all your might to remain as you are called."
