Winner of a 2016 Association of Catholic Publishers 2016 Excellence in Publishing Award: Inspirational Books (Second Place).

Our Lady, Undoer of Knots: A Living Novena is a unique guided meditation from veteran Catholic journalist Marge Fenelon, who has created a new devotional practice from this classic novena that is a favorite of Pope Francis.  

Since the seventeenth century, Catholics facing seemingly insurmountable obstacles have turned to Our Lady, Undoer of Knots through a special novena—nine days of prayer for divine intervention. Catholic columnist Marge Fenelon resurrects this ancient tradition, also known as the Unfailing Novena, by reflecting on nine sacred sites associated with Pope Francis’s 2014 pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Reflecting on such holy places as Bethlehem, the Mount of Olives, and the Temple Mount, Fenelon helps readers explore the “knots” or impossible situations in their own lives in order to find peace.

  • “It was a joy reading this book.”

    “As I read this book, many times did I feel that the Holy Spirit was speaking to my heart as I recalled my own trip to the Holy Land. Using the form of a novena, Marge Fenelon takes us on a journey through the sacred sites visited by the Holy Father during his historic pilgrimage. Each day tackles a different knot—injustice, separation, confusion, hopelessness, grief and loss, discord, betrayal, envy and pride, and affliction—both as they relate to the situation is the land where Jesus lived as well as in our own lives. It was a joy reading this book.”

  • “An absolute treasure of faith.”

    “Marge Fenelon’s beautiful, evocative and poetic application of the devotion to a pilgrimage in the Holy Land takes my breath away. I not only feel like I have walked the ground where Jesus and Mary walked, but Marge’s heartfelt prayers and meditations opened a deeper appreciation of the way Mary does undo the knots of our lives—if we invite her in. Whether you read it as an armchair pilgrimage or as a devotional or use it to pray a novena, this guided meditation is an absolute treasure of faith.”

  • “Exceptional and inspiring.”

    “Exceptional and inspiring, this armchair pilgrimage and prayer guide will help to untangle even the most vicious knots in our lives. Combining Pope Francis’s Holy Land pilgrimage, her own pilgrimage experiences, and the seventeenth-century novena to Our Lady,   Undoer of Knots, Marge Fenelon fashioned this heartfelt novena. A must read!”
