Corpus Christi Novena Day Three: The Eucharist as the Source of My Life

St. Pio of Pietrelcina (Padre Pio) (1887–1968) pray for us!For the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, we will be praying a novena to prepare for this great feast, asking for an increase of love, desire and reverence for the Holy Eucharist. Each day, we will walk with a Saint who led a Eucharistic-centered life. We would love for you to pray with us!A Novena is a nine-day period of prayer, typically to ask God for special favors or to seek the intercession of a saint. The word "novena" comes from the Latin word "novem," meaning nine. Novenas are often prayed before a special feast day, event, or to address a specific need.
