For those with a very specific petitions, the St. Andrew Novena is one connected with answered prayers! Here’s a little excerpt about it:
November 30, is the Feast of St. Andrew. It is piously believed that whoever recites the St. Andrew Christmas Novena fifteen times a day from the feast of St. Andrew until Christmas Eve will obtain what is asked.
NOVENA
Hail and blessed be the hour and moment at which the Son of God was born of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight in Bethlehem, in the piercing cold. In that hour vouchsafe, O my God, to hear my prayer and grant my desires (Mention your intentions here) through the merits of Our Savior Jesus Christ, and of His most Blessed Mother. Amen.
Imprimatur
