I encourage you to bring your healing needs to the Lord during the Annual Healing and Hope Novena at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows.  During the novena we will seek God’s blessings through the intercession of Our Lady of the Snows.

 The novena will be celebrated July 28 – August 5.  Each evening liturgy begins at 7:30 p.m. and features music, a special reflection, a healing ritual and special prayers; and will conclude with a candlelight rosary procession.

 If you are unable to join us in person for the novena, please send me your prayer petitions so I can have your intentions placed before the altar and prayed for by the Missionary Oblates and our Shrine visitors.

 I thank you for visiting our website.  We all need healing and hope in our lives, and I pray that the upcoming novena is a source of healing and hope in yours.

Fr. John Madigan, O.M.I.
Oblate Director
