Intro Prayer
St Gemma, patroness of all students, pharmacists, those who have lost their parents, those suffering back injury or back pain, those suffering from headaches or migraines, and those struggling with temptations to impurity, we turn to you in this novena and trust in thy intercession.
Lord, we humbly prostrate ourselves before Thy Majesty, and we adore Thee and dedicate to Thy glory the devout prayers which we now present to Thee, as an act of devotion to your servant, St Gemma Galgani, whose intercession we are now imploring.
Most compassionate virgin, St. Gemma, during thy short life on earth, you gave a most beautiful example of angelic innocence and seraphic love and was found worthy to bear in thy flesh the marks of our Lord’s Passion.
Have pity on us who are so much in need of God’s Mercy, and obtain for us through thy merits and intercession, the special favor which we now fervently implore.

Answered Prayers From This Novena
I want to say that the novena I said to St. Gemma exceeded my wildest expectations. I’m a true believer in these things but this was almost immediate. I had a disc issue in my back that was causing such debilitating pain I was almost helpless in certain situations. I had some relief from day one of the novena and progressively until by when I finished the ninth day it was as though the injury ever happened. Complete recovery!! I was told it would be a month at best for a lot of relief medically. I am so grateful to this blessed saint!! I know it was her intercession to our Lord that did it.
from K.E.
She helped me with my back pain daily. She helped my brother with his and his postop course. She is helping me with my migraines.
I also pray for the pharmacists in my life, there are many.
She is amazing.
from S.R.
St Gemma reminded me about the novena. I was one or two days late, but she wanted me to pray this novena.
My back started to hurt, and I had an MRI done. I have a herniated disc but without the pain I use to have.
I know St Gemma prayed for me to mother Mary and Jesus.
from I.M.
I thank St Gemma Galgani for begging our Lord Jesus Christ for helping me flee from sexual immorality.
Glory be to God!
from L.B.
