Novena to San Bruno di Colonia

San Bruno di Colonia, ora pro nobis

Pray this novena for nine consecutive days, from September 27th through October 5th, in preparation for the Feast on October 6th. Evviva San Bruno!

Almighty and eternal God, you prepare dwelling places in heaven for those who renounce this world. We humbly beseech your boundless mercy, that through the intercession of our blessed Father Bruno, your Confessor, we may faithfully fulfill the vows of our profession and safely attain those things you have promised to all who persevere in your friendship.

This we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen.

O loving Father, and glorious St. Bruno, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
