prayers for today. Day one. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

St Joseph, you are the faithful protector and intercessor of all who love and venerate you. You know that I have confidence in you and

that after Jesus and Mary I come to you as an example for holiness, for you are especially

close with God.

Therefore I humbly commend myself with all who are dear to me and all that belong to me to your

intercession. I beg of you by your love for Jesus and Mary not to abandon me

during life and to assist me at the hour of my death. Glorious St. Joseph,

spouse of the Immaculate Virgin, pray for me to have a pure, humble,

charitable mind and perfect resignation to the divine will.

Be my guide, my father, and my model through life that I may die as you did in the arms of Jesus and Mary.

Loving St. Joseph, faithful follower of Jesus Christ, I raise my heart to you to employ your powerful intercession

in obtaining from the divine heart of Jesus all the graces necessary for my spiritual and temporal welfare, particularly the grace of a happy

death and the special grace I now implore.

Mention your inventions here. mention your prayers on my behalf will be graciously heard before the throne of God.

St Joseph Most Just, pray for us, Amen.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
