Novena to Sant’Apollonia di Alessandria

Sant'Apollonia di Alessandria, ora pro nobis
Pray novena for nine consecutive days, January 31st to February 8th, in preparation for the Feast of Sant’Apollonia di Alessandria celebrated on February 9th. Evivva Sant’Apollonia di Alessandria!

O Glorious Apollonia, Patron Saint of dentistry and refuge to all those suffering from diseases of the teeth, I consecrate myself to thee, beseeching thee to number me among thy clients. Assist me by your intercession with God in my daily work and intercede with Him to obtain for me a happy death. Pray that my heart like thine may be inflamed with the love of Jesus and Mary, through Christ our Lord. O My God, bring me safe through temptation and strengthen me as thou didst our own Patron Saint Apollonia, through Christ our Lord. Amen

St. Apollonia, pray for us


Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory Be…
