Join Us for the Our Lady of the Snows Novena

The Novena to Our Lady of the Snows is a special time of 9-days of prayer and reflection, inviting the faithful to place their needs and hopes into the loving hands of Mary. Through her gentle intercession, she leads every heart toward the peace and compassion of her Son, Jesus Christ.

During the nine days of this Novena, the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows will lift your intentions in their daily prayers and Masses. Your petitions will be placed before the altar, where they will be remembered with devotion throughout the Novena.
