The Novena to the Holy Spirit was the very first Novena.
Before Jesus ascended into Heaven, he promised His disciples " I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” Luke 24:49. As described in Acts 1:8 "The Holy Spirit will come to you. He will give you power to tell people about me." The disciples prayed for nine days for the Holy Spirit [Acts 1: 12 - 14] and on the tenth day they received the Holy spirit on Pentecost Day which was 40 days after Easter. Acts 2 ----->
This Novena to the Holy Spirit will help us pray for Gifts of the Holy Spirit as we pray during the nine days.

Come, Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful
and enkindle in us the fire of your love.
V. Send forth your Spirit and we shall be created.
R. And you shall renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray.
O God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit,
did instruct the hearts of the faithful,
grant us in the same Spirit to be truly wise
and ever to rejoice in His consolation.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
