Novena For Adopted Children (Anytime)
Repeat the following Novena prayers every day for 9 consecutive days.
Father, we are all your adopted children,
not by flesh or by desire,
but through the power of the incarnation
of your most beloved Son, Jesus Christ.
Bless those children who have been adopted
into new families,
that they may experience the love that you have shown us
which surpasses even the love of a mother for her child.
In the difficult transitions and hardships
that might beset them in their struggle for belonging,
give every adopted child the grace
to embrace their new family
and trust in your paternal care for them,
which lasts forever.
Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Petition to Saint Joseph
Blessed Joseph,
Christ Jesus humbly accepted you as his earthly father
and was obedient to you and the Blessed Virgin Mary.
In turn, you raised Jesus as your own son,
protected him from harm,
provided for his daily needs
and loved him with all your heart.
Pray for all adopted children,
infants, children, and teens.
