Novena for Peace: And the Safe Return of the Soldiers Booklet

Compiled by Augustinian Fathers of Kenosha. Originally published during World War II, this booklet is being brought out again to encourage prayers for peace and for loved ones in today s new horrors of war.

NOVENA FOR PEACE is arranged as a holy hour (with Benediction) for use in a congregation, but its prayers can just as well be prayed privately. These include the Prayer to Our Lady of Mercy; Prayer for Soldiers, Sailors and Aviators; Prayer for Those at Sea; Prayer to the Mother of Sorrows; Prayer to St. Rita, Advocate in Desperate Cases; Prayer to St. Michael; Invocations to our Suffering Saviour Jesus Christ; Pope Pius XII s Prayer for Peace; the Memorare; Mother Dearest, Mother Fairest; and more.

This little book of hope guides the reader in beseeching God s help for those in the service and for true Christian peace on earth.
