July 30, 2012. We have been praying this Novena, and our sweet Lady of the Divine Commission, answered a very important request. This was for a family member who came down with a serious case of pancreatitis. Was not sure what caused it, nor what the outcome would be. Blood test revealed today, July 30th, 2012, that all was negative. I even memorized the Novena so I would have it in my head. This is a powerful Novena, and most important, the power of prayer. Thank you Our Lady of the Divine Commission. Sandy

April 18, 2013. Hello - I just wanted to let you know that I prayed for a healthy baby by praying the Novena to Our Lady of the Divine Commission and a beautiful little girl was delivered to us in March.
I consider this a true miracle as we had been told that no female at my age with my labs values has been known to get pregnant naturally. Plus, I had an ectopic pregnancy the month before I got pregnant; thus, cutting the already low probability in half!
So, thanks to your website for providing the resource to the prayer I needed for the Lord to receive my prayer through the intercession of Mother Mary. Truly a miracle in my eyes!! Ramona

On May 13, 2013, the following prayer request was answered by Our Lady Of the Divine Commission at St. Joseph's Hospital in Baltimore.
My Mom was diagnosed with lung cancer on April 15, 2013. I began the Novena to Our Lady of the Divine Commission to pray the cancer had not spread, which would give her a much higher chance of long term survival and would enable her to have surgery. My prayer was answered on May 8th and she had surgery May 13th. The doctor was able to remove the upper right lobe of the lung with the most minimally invasive surgery. I have such faith in this Novena and will be saying the Novena again to pray the cancer is small enough not to require chemotherapy.
Thank you for providing this Novena.

I began praying the Novena of Our Lady of the Divine Commission because I was out of a job and looking for something very specialized with a very specific schedule.

I am eternally grateful to this Novena and this is the second time my prayer has been answered by Our Lady of the Divine Commission.

I have been publicly proclaiming my Mother's answer to me while praying the Novena to Our Lady of Divine Commission. I want to proclaim it here, too. I retired from teaching earlier this year and began work as an insurance salesman. I was disheartened by how much I hated selling insurance, and how much I missed teaching. I prayed the Novena and almost gave up on the eighth day. But I persevered and on the morning of the ninth day, immediately after I said the prayer, I came across an internet link to a teaching position being offered by a prominent education company. I applied on that same day and in the evening received an email from their human resources director. I was hired for the position and am now employed as a pre-college teacher for this company. I'm back teaching high school students. "Mom" (Virgin Mary) answered my prayers and I am eternally thankful to her and her Son, my Lord, Jesus Christ. Anyone who says that prayer is not powerful, has never prayed.

I am so blessed because Our Lady of the Divine Commission granted my request. I had never heard of this Novena until I saw it in the 225 Treasure Novenas. I began praying the Novena back in August, 2013 when the auditors from an outside firm start coming in at work. I am still fairly new at my job as a grants analyst (through prayers, I was hired even without any experience) so just merely seeing the auditors make me so nervous and stressed out. I prayed every day, asking that none of the grants I was handling get picked for audit. The auditors were there for months, and while all the other analysts were being bombarded by questions from the auditors, miraculously, not even one of my accounts was ever picked to be audited! And the auditors are now done and gone! I am so thankful and grateful to Our Lady of the Divine Commission for granting my request! Since then I've been praying the Novena everyday! Thank you also to Catholic Doors Ministry for this Novena and for all the other beautiful prayers that are published on its website! I am sure it has helped millions of people! With deepest gratitude.

Through Our Lady’s intercession, the threat was averted, a new stream of income was opened in August 2013 and I completed the structure and packed into it on November 23rd, 2013.

Hello, my name is Cristina from North Brunswick, NJ USA.
I would like to praise and thank Our Lady of the Divine Commission for again granting my request. I started praying the novena back in February. My family has been planning to visit the land of our birth for the last 5 years, however it has never pushed through. This year seemed impossible again to go on vacation since where I work, they only allow you to go for 2 straight weeks, and I need at the very least, 3 weeks. as traveling time alone, one way is already a day.
I prayed the novena and sent the vacation request asking for 18 days. I knew it was going to be rejected because first of all I was asking for 18 days and we're only allowed 10 days straight, and second of all, even my manager's request for vacation was denied. But the novena to our Lady of the Divine Commission is so powerful! My request was approved the following day without any questions asked!
Oh my Sweet, Dear Lady of the Divine Commission, thank you so much. I will never cease to honor and praise you my loving Lady! I love you!

On May 30, 2014, Angela writes from Parsippany, New Jersey, U.S.A.:
My story is quite different from those that I read to our Lady of the Divine Commission; many seem to have their prayers answered in a very short period of time. I have been praying the novena for at least four years. I have been sharing the power of prayer to our Lady with many that are in distress, and while my prayers were not answered until now, I have never given up hope. I always knew she was at my side, and through continued faith, one day my prayers would be answered.
Twelve years ago my husband passed away very suddenly leaving me to raise two teenage sons and to run a family business alone. After the economic recession, our once very thriving business met with very hard times. Often I believed I was headed for financial ruin. I prayed hard for a buyer for my business and real estate. Our Lady, I truly believe, interceded on my behalf by giving me just enough to survive week-by-week, but she was not ready to fully answer my prayers. I exhausted every option that was in my control, and only through Divine Intervention and continued faith would my situation change.
Two days ago I closed on the Real Estate sale, and the business closing is to take place in nine days. I might add that all my funds were exhausted, and if this closing did not take place, I would not survive the next month. Our prayers are answered; we are blessed with what we need, not necessarily what we want. It would have been so much easier if I was spared the stress and the worry, but this was my test of faith. My belief in Our Lady, and the power of her intercession on my behalf to her Son, guided me through my darkest hours and through this journey of faith.
Thank you Our Lady for being my mother and my intercessor. I will continue to praise you and honor you all the days of my life.

I wish to thank Our Lady of the Divine Commission because my request for closure, strength and a settlement on a trial was granted. My sister had been very brave to continue a fight for her deceased husband of a wrongful death suit. The prayers I requested from this powerful novena was for my sister to have the strength to fight and for some financial gain to help with the families debt. On July 16th the birthdate of her deceased husband, the trial ended and gave her closure on that matter. She was able to see the 3 1/2 year court battle through. She was given the strength not to give up through the trial. It was very emotional draining on her. The prayer that was granted is that she didn't give up, even though she was allowed to. She was given some money which will help her with her debt. No mis-trial, no appeal, no hung jury... it is over for her. I only hope and pray that her heart has healed as well.

I immediately turned to Our Lady of the Divine Commission for help that the application be approved at least within a month. Two weeks after, he was notified that it was approved and on October 1 st, he received his first SSI payment!! Thank you, thank you dearest Mother for all these blessings!

Let it be known that I received the answer to my prayer request in February, 2016 through the Novena to our Lady of the Divine Commission.
I prayed that our Blessed Mother, through her divine intercession would obtain for me the favor of completing my intensive care unit rotation at the Medical Centre. The rotation is a required part of my medical residency training. I sought the help of our Blessed Mother because this task seemed insurmountable. The odds were stacked against me. Yet looking back now, the Lord had begun to work miracles to set things in my favor long before the rotation started.
I cannot begin to describe to you how the Lord came to my rescue on numerous occasions during this intensive care unit rotation. Till this day, I remain in awe of his glory and faithfulness. Now with the rotation behind me, I am able to see the light at the end of the tunnel which I believed was there but had not seen before. Now I see the light.
Please join me to give glory to God for all that He has done, for what He is doing, and for what He will do.

This was on January 14, 2017, the 6th day of the Novena. This is indeed a miracle as my grandson has not spoken a single word at all, talked or responded verbally all these 4+ yrs.

During the last month, I had a couple of health scares. First, I was stressed and scared about a follow up mammogram that had to be done. During that time I had to get my blood test for my annual physical but contemplated whether or not to take it since I was under extreme stress. Needless to say, some of my bloodwork came back elevated like my calcium and protein levels. Those two combined are not good news. My doctor decided to retest and do other blood work in a couple of weeks. I found this Novena and prayed it for 9 days. On the 9th day I got my results back and although one was still elevated all the others came back totally normal. My doctor is no longer concerned. Thank you Our Lady of the Divine Commission.

My daughters and I prayed this Novena 2 times consecutively for my husband’s business in the month of May and leading into the beginning of June. With the Coronavirus affecting construction projects, he was worried about his engineering company and what the year was going to look like for his employees. He did not want to lay any people off.
Shortly after finishing the second Novena, he was awarded a large government contract. A government contract is extremely hard to win, and something he has tried continuously to secure for his entire career, which is over 20 years! My husband knew we were praying this Novena to our Blessed Mother and knows that this achievement is because of her intercession. We are very grateful. We have 7 children and the youngest has severe special needs. Things are stressful for us, as I know they are for everyone. The world needs the Blessed Mother and her intercessory power now more than ever.

I was so worried as those invoices were very old some were two years back and I might have a really big problem at work if they don’t get paid. I asked for help to Our Lady of the Divine Commission praying unceasingly.
And one day, I was going to send another reminder to the client but something made me stop and check the cash first. And lo and behold!! There it was!! We received the payment in full!! I almost cried of happiness! I was so scared that I might lose my job if this big amount did not get paid.

This is a very powerful Novena! My request was granted! My friend offered to help me without my asking.
I also prayed for a Divine miracle for my daughter Ale. On February 6, 2021, she went sledding with my grandchildren and a friend. One of the grandkids was in her way as she was going down the hill. In order to avoid hurting my grandson, my daughter deviated and in an impulse of self defense stretched out her leg before hitting a tree. She broke her ankle.
Thanks to the Lord and Our Lady of the Divine Commission for the miracle. My daughter has no shattered bones or bone fragments and she will not need surgery. She is healing quickly. “Oh My Lady of the Divine Commission, thank you so much! I will never cease to honor and praise you.“
