When sight ceases, it is the time for faith to work. The greater the difficulties, the easier it is for faith. As long as human possibilities for success remain, faith does not accomplish things as easily as when all natural prospects fail.

NOVENA

BASIC R.C. BELIEF Nine days (or once a week for nine weeks) of public or private prayer, usually in preparation for some feast. This practice is supposed to come from the nine days after Christ’s Ascension that the Apostles waited for the Holy Spirit, or from the nine months Jesus spent in Mary’s womb before His birth.
