St. John the Apostle Novena is a nine-day devotion dedicated to St. John the Apostle, one of Jesus’ closest disciples. It provides a way to focus on praying to St. John and seeking his intercession with God for specific needs or intentions.
St. John is venerated for his unique closeness to Jesus. He was the youngest disciple, known for his love and purity. He witnessed many key events in Jesus’ life, including the Last Supper, Crucifixion, and Resurrection. He’s also credited with writing the Gospel of John and several letters in the New Testament.
Remember, the most important aspect of the novena is your personal intention and commitment to prayer. Approach it with a sincere heart and open yourself to God’s grace through the intercession of St. John the Apostle.
