Prayer to Saint Joseph. Oh, Saint Joseph, we venerate you as a model of worker and patron of families. We acknowledge you as a friend to the poor, consoler of the afflicted and exiled, the Saint of Divine Providence on Earth you represented the universal goodness of the Heavenly Father. Intercede for us. Saint Joseph, patron of families. Assist us through your prayers to grow stronger in our love for one another and become more pleasing to God. Jesus and Mary were entrusted to your care. Grant us what we truly need to be always faithful to one another and servants of each other's needs. Amen. (Make your petition.)
