NOVENA TO SAINT JOSEPH

O glorious Saint Joseph, you were appointed by the eternal Father as the guardian and

protector of the life of Jesus Christ. You were the comfort and support of His holy Mother, and the instrument in His great design for the redemption of humankind. You had the

happiness of living with Jesus and Mary, and of dying in their arms. Be moved with the

confidence we place in you, and procure for us from the Almighty, the particular favors which we humbly ask through your intercession.

 (Here ask for the favors you desire.)

 Pray for us, O great Saint Joseph, and by your love for Jesus and Mary, and by their love for you, obtain for us the supreme happiness of living and dying in the love of Jesus and Mary. Amen.

 St. Joseph, pray for us.
