Novena Prayer to Matt Talbot



Here is the basic Novena prayer that we are asking everyone to say while we are on the road...

Each day I will be posting the full prayer that will be broadcast on radio station KINI.

"Lord, in your servant, Matt Talbot you have given us a wonderful example of triumph over addiction, of devotion to duty, and of lifelong reverence of the Holy Sacrament. May his life of prayer and penance give us courage to take up our crosses and follow in the footsteps of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Father, if it be your will that your beloved servant should be glorified by your Church, make known by your heavenly favours the power he enjoys in your sight. We ask this through the same Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen."


And in Lakota...

"Itacan, wo'ilake nithawa, Matt Talbot, el otapeya mani pica wan wastehca ca unyak'u pi, wayatkan aya ic'iye etan igluhlaye, wowasi tawa el ic'ic'u, na Yutapi wakan el oni tawa ki ataya yu'onihan.
