You might have seen my post about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.donnacooperoboyle.com\/blog\/2015\/11\/12\/so-happy-to-offer-holy-scarves-to-the-homeless\/\" target=\"_blank\">this new part of my ministry<\/a>: &#8220;Warming the homeless with LOVE, scarves, and sacramentals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Please pray along with me in this beautiful novena. I am requesting that in this novena all throughout the nine days which is to Jesus through Mary and Her blessed sacramental, the Miraculous Medal, that you ask for special help for the homeless and unfortunate and if you could, please keep my ministry in your prayers as well. Of course, we don&#8217;t want to forget to include France in this novena. The Blessed Mother Herself mentioned France to St. Catherine in one of Her apparitions to her when explaining the Miraculous medal.<\/p>\n<p>Please add all of your own intentions in this powerful novena. Thank you in advance for praying for the homeless, for my encounters with them when I gift them with the &#8220;holy&#8221; scarves, that Our Lord would really speak to their hearts, and for whatever God&#8217;s holy Will might be in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the novena prayer (but please continue to read the post below the prayers because there is more):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Novena of the Miraculous Medal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0\u00a0 Spirit.
