The Prayer

O Most Blessed Mother, heart of love, heart of mercy, ever listening, caring, consoling, hear our prayer. As your children, we implore your intercession with Jesus your Son. Receive with understanding and compassion the petitions we place before you today, especially...

We are comforted in knowing your heart is ever open to those who ask for your prayer. We trust to your gentle care and intercession those whom we love and who are sick or lonely or hurting. Help all of us, Holy Mother, to bear our burdens in this life until we may share eternal life and peace with God forever. Amen.

A Mission Close to Our Hearts

ShopCatholic was founded by Shawn Kilgarlin — wife, mother of four, mental health clinician, and Life Coach — whose heart for giving is as much a part of this brand as the cards themselves. Every Christmas Eve, Shawn donates thousands of gifts to those in need through Holy Angels. She volunteers at addiction treatment centers, and her children, Loyola University students, and local high school students help make gift bags for families in need. When you purchase a ShopCatholic prayer card, you are participating in that mission. Your purchase helps Shawn continue her work of giving — quietly, faithfully, year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a novena and how does this one work?
A novena is a nine-day prayer devotion — a tradition rooted in the nine days the Apostles and Mary spent in prayer between the Ascension and Pentecost. This novena to the Immaculate Heart of Mary is prayed once a day for nine consecutive days, bringing your intentions before Our Lady and trusting in her intercession. It is a beautiful practice for times of special need, feast days, or simply deepening your Marian devotion.

How do I use this prayer card?
Keep it in your Bible, missal, or prayer journal as a bookmark. Tuck it in your wallet or purse for a quiet moment of prayer during the day. Place it on your home altar or nightstand as a reminder to begin each day's novena prayer. These cards are laminated for durability — designed to travel with you through all nine days and beyond.

Can I order these in bulk for a parish, school, or ministry?
Absolutely. Standard packs go up to 100 cards. For larger needs, custom print orders start at a minimum of 1,000 cards, take approximately 5 days, and can be ordered in any quantity. When Pope Francis made his 2016 Apostolic Journey to the US/Mexico border, he ordered 80,000 Kilgarlin prayer cards for distribution — a testament to the power of the prayer card as a tool of evangelization.
