The Indulgenced Pentecost Novena to the Holy Ghost for the Seven Gifts – The Vigil of Pentecost – 7 June
NINTH DAY
Foreword and Indulgences CLICK HERE : Foreword
Thou, on those who evermore
Thee confess and Thee adore
In Thy sevenfold Gifts, descend.
Give them comfort when they die,
Give them life with Thee on high,
Give them joys which never end.
THE FRUITS of the HOLY GHOST
The Gifts of the Holy Ghost perfect the supernatural virtues,
by enabling us to practice them with greater docility to Divine inspiration.
As we grow in the knowledge and love of God, under the direction of the Holy Ghost, our service becomes more sincere and generous,
the practice of virtue becomes more perfect.
Such acts of virtue leave the heart filled with joy and consolation
and are known as Fruits of the Holy Spirit.
These Fruits, in turn, render the practice of virtue more attractive and become a powerful incentive for still greater efforts,
in the service of God, to serve Whom is to reign!
Prayer
Come, O Divine Spirit,
fill my heart with Thy heavenly fruits,
Thy charity, joy,
peace, patience,
benignity, goodness,
faith, mildness and temperance,
that I may never weary
of the service of God
but, by continued faithful submission,
to Thy inspiration,
may merit to be united eternally with Thee,
in the love of the Father
and the Son.
Amen
Our Father and Hail Mary – ONCE.
Glory be to the Father – SEVEN TIMES.
ACT of CONSECRATION to the HOLY GHOST
To be prayed each day of the Novena
