About this ebook
The Novena to the Holy Spirit is a both a beautiful prayer to the Holy Spirit and a preparation to celebrate the Solemn Feast of Pentecost. This novena includes the prayers of the Consecration to the Holy Spirit and the Prayer for the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit as well as meditations and prayers to be recited for nine days between the Feast of the Ascension and Pentecost, or the nine Mondays prior to Pentecost or anytime as a devotional prayer for the help of the Holy Spirit. The Apostles themselves spent the nine days between the Ascension of Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Coming of the Holy Spirit in prayer in the upper room where they had celebrated the last Supper. Thus the novena to the Holy Spirit is the mother of all novenas!

Novena to the Holy Spirit - Congregation of the Holy Spirit
FOREWORD
The novena in honor of the Holy Spirit is the oldest of all novenas since it was first made at the direction of Our Lord Himself when He sent His apostles back to Jerusalem to await the coming of the Holy Spirit on the first Pentecost. It is still the only novena officially prescribed by the Church. Addressed to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity, it is a powerful plea for the light and strength and love so sorely needed by every Christian.
ACT OF CONSECRATION TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
(To be recited daily during the Novena)
On my knees I before the great multitude of heavenly witnesses I offer myself, soul and body to You, Eternal Spirit of God. I adore the brightness of Your purity, the unerring keenness of Your justice, and the might of Your love. You are the Strength and Light of my soul. In You I live and move and am.

I cling to You and give myself to You and ask You, by Your compassion to watch over me in my weakness. Holding the pierced Feet of Jesus and looking at His Five Wounds, and trusting in His Precious Blood and adoring His opened Side and stricken Heart, I implore You, Adorable Spirit, Helper of my infirmity, to keep me in
