Day 1, Novena to Blessed Teresa of Calcutta

Official Novena to Blessed Teresa of Calcutta
First Day – Know the Living Jesus (Aug 27, 2011)
Thought for the day:
“Don’t search for Jesus in far lands; He is not there. He is close to you; He is in you.”


Ask for the grace of an intimate knowledge of Jesus.
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, you allowed the thirsting love of Jesus on the Cross to become a living flame within you, and so became the light of His love to all.
Obtain from the Heart of Jesus (here make your request).
Teach me to allow Jesus to penetrate and possess my whole being so completely that my life, too, may radiate His light and love to others. Amen.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, Cause of Our Joy, pray for me.
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, pray for me.
