How to pray an Emergency Novena

Have you ever found yourself in an emergency with no time to pray a full nine-day novena? When Mother Teresa faced urgent situations, she would pray an "Emergency Novena" - nine Memorares in petition, followed by a tenth in thanksgiving. This is also referred to as an Express or Flying novena. Similar to the rosary, you can count the prayers on your fingers, but using a chaplet makes the experience more focused and intentional.

Memorare:
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known, that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petition, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me.

Amen.

St. Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us.

    Please pray for me. Me and my fiance, Dave have been together for 11 years. He’s being smoking crack and we owe $17,000 in rent and he doesn’t care. Now he started talking to another woman, Jen who is married n has kids. She assaulted me grabbed me by my neck n dragged me from the floor. He told her surprised no1 called cps that’s y that happened. And he then pushed me out of her building. I never called cps on her. I went to the police they r taking to long to arrest them they have a warrant. Please pray he realizes it’s not a relationship or friendship they have it’s only about the drugs. Thank u.
