Notes: The novena is a widely practiced institution of religious piety and devotion characterized by public or private prayers done over a consecutive number of days (usually nine) for purposes of acquiring special intercessory graces. Novena prayers are usually printed on small booklets and sold by ambulant vendors outside churches. They are typically addressed to specific saints, angels, or Marian titles of the Virgin Mary. In this case, the novena is to St. Pedro Calungsod, the second Filipino to be canonized as a saint.
