Infant Jesus
Dear Infant Jesus, Your arms are outstretched to welcome us here and stretched over us to bless us. Help us spend this hour in prayer to praise You and bless You. You indeed are our Lord and Saviour. You care for us and beacuse of Your care for us, You are with us to hear our petitions. Hear then our plea and graciously grant our petitions. We humbly invoke Your powerful aid, and ask this of You, Jesus Who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen.
O Miraculous Infant Jesus, we prostrate before Your sacred image and beseech
You to cast a merciful look on our troubled hearts. Let Your tender Heart, so inclined to show mercy,
be softened by our prayers and grant us that grace for which we ardently implore You.
(Mention requests/petitions)
Take from us all affliction and despair and misfortunes with which we are laden.
For Your Sacred Infancy's sake, hear our prayers and send us consolation and aid that we may
praise You with the Father and the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever. Amen.
O little Infant Jesus, we offer this mass in union with You to our loving Father in heaven whom You taught us to call lovingly 'Our Father'. We offer You to Him as a loving sacrifice and offer ourselves along with You to our loving Father in heaven. We pray not only for us but for everyone in this world of ours.
The Rosary is composed of three 'Our Fathers' to honour the Holy Family; twelve 'Hail Marys'
in memory of the twelve years of the Saviour's childhood and three 'Glory Be' in honour of the Holy Trinity.
Each of the 'Our Father' is preceded by these words: "And The Word Was Made Flesh and Dwelt Amongst Us."
Each of the 'Glory Be' by these words; "Holy Child Jesus, Bless Us and Grant Us Our Petitions."

Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Prayer: O Holy Child Jesus, whose omnipotence is manifested in a wonderful manner and whose miraculous hand raised in benediction,
fills us with all blessings, graciously design to hear all who call upon You with confidence. Amen.
The Infant Jesus designed to make known to His faithful servant Venerable St. Margaret,
how pleasing is this holy practice to Him. He promised to grant special graces, above all,
that of purity and innocence to those who carry this Chaplet with de votion and recite
it in honour of the Mysteries of His Holy Infancy.
Pious parents, do you wish to preserve the baptismal
innocence of your children? Inspire them then with a tender devotion, calling on their Divine Model,
whom they should love and imitate!

Let us Pray:
O miraculous Infant Jesus, we prostrate before Your Sacred image and beseech
You to cast a merciful look on our troubled hearts. Let Your tender Heart, so inclined to pity,
be softened by our prayers and grant us that grace for which we ardently implore You.
Take from us all affliction and despair, all trials and misfortunes with which we are laden,
For Your Sacred Infancy's sake hear our prayers and send us consolation and aid that we may praise
You with the Father and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever. Amen.
O most gracious Infant Jesus, I kneel before You and offer You my fervent thanks for the blessings You have showered on me. I shall always praise Your mercy and confess that You alone are my God, my Helper and my Protector. Henceforth, my confidence shall be placed in You. I shall proclaim all over, Your mercy and generosity. May Your great love and the great deeds performed, be acknowledged by all. May devotion to Your Infancy extend more and more in the hearts of all mankind. May all who experience Your assistance be ever grateful to Your Holy Infancy. May they praise and glorify You for all eternity.
Dear Infant Jesus, I adore You, I love and venerate You in the Mysteries of Your Holy Infancy. I thank You for becoming a child for love of me. In return, I give and consecrate myself entirely to Your love. I beg of You to grant me, now and throughout my life, the virtues of Your Holy Childhood. Give me, dear Jesus, the treasure of Your humility, the sweetness of Your charity, Your sweet virtue of prompt obedience and Your simplicity. May Your grace draw me to love and imitate You and enjoy Your majesty in Heaven. Amen.
O dear Jesus, Your greatest joy is to dwell among people and to shower blessings on them in abundance.
Many who turned with confidence to You, have received extraordinary graces and had their petitions granted.
Kneeling before Your miraculous image at Vivekanagar, I open my heart to You, with its prayers,
petitions and hopes, especially
(Mention requests/petitions)
Do with me what You like. I know that in Your wisdom and love, You'll do everything for my good.
I pray to You Infant Jesus, to comfort me at this hour and make me happy. Amen.
O merciful Infant Jesus, I know of Your compassion to the sick. During Your blessed life
on earth Your gentle touch cured the sick, the crippled and all those tormented with incurable diseases.
In Vivekanagar, thousands who flock to Your miraculous image ascribe to You their recovery and deliverance
from most painful and hopeless maladies. I know, indeed, that I, a sinner, have merited my sufferings
and have no right for favours at Your hands. But because of the innumerable graces and the miraculous
cures granted even to the greatest sinners through the intercession of Your Holy Infancy, I am doubly confident.
You can cure me. O Heavenly Physician, if it be Your will that I recover from this present illness.
(Mention illness)
do extend Your most holy hands. Take away all pain and infirmity so that my recovery may be due, not to natural
remedies but to Your almighty power alone.
If, however, You in Your inscrutable wisdom has willed otherwise, at least restore my soul to perfect health.
While, I endure the pains of sickness, let the sweet balm of Your consolation flow over me to fill me with the
sublime thought that all earthly pain is short lived. Grant me, O merciful and loving Infant Jesus,
the courage to endure and to resign to your will. Shower on me Your blessings that I may be like you,
O Jesus, in my sufferings. On my sickbed, may I glorify Your providence until You bestow on me eternal life. Amen.
Remember, O holy Child Jesus, that You have said to Blessed Margaret of the Blessed Sacrament,
these words so full of consolation for our poor, burdened and suffering humanity:
"Draw from this Divine Heart
(Mention requests/petitions)
Ask all that you desire through the merits of my Childhood. Nothing will be refused to You".
Full of confidence in You, O Jesus, Who are Truth itself, we come to make known all our misery to you.
Help us lead a holy life in order to attain blessed eternity. Grant us through the infinite merits of Your
Incarnation and of Your Childhood, the graces of which we are most in need.
INo, we shall not be deceived in our hope. We abandon ourselves to You.
O omnipotent God, in virtue of Your Divine promise, You will favourably receive and deign to grant our prayer. Amen.
There are different methods and forms of novena in personal urgent need. However, disregarding this difference, it is understood that a prayer be said hourly nine times a day. (This should be, however, without tension). The most popular form follows:
O Jesus, You said: "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you". Through the intercession of Mary, Your most holy Mother, I knock, I seek, and I ask that my prayer be granted.
O Jesus, You said, "All that you ask the Father in My name He will grant you." Through the intercession of Mary, Your most holy mother, I humbly and urgently ask Your Father in Your name that my prayer be granted.
O Jesus, You said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass." Through the intercession of Mary, Your most holy mother, I feel confident that my prayer will be granted.
