"When Joseph and Mary had done everything required by the Law of the Lord,
they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.
And the Child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom,
and the grace of God was on him." -Luke 2:39-40
O Holy St. Joseph, Whose Protection is so Great, So Strong, so Prompt Before
The Throne Of God, I Place in Thee All my Interests and Desires. O St. Joseph,
Assist me by Thy Powerful Intercession and Obtain for me All Spiritual
Blessings Through Thy Foster Son, Jesus Christ Our Lord, so that having
Engaged Here Below Thy Heavenly Power, I May Offer
Thee My Thanksgiving and Homage; O St. Joseph, I Never Weary
Contemplating Thee and Jesus Asleep In Thine Arms. I Dare Not Approach while
He Reposes Near Thy Heart. Press Him In My Name and Kiss His Fine Head for me,
and Ask Him to Return The Kiss When I Draw My Dying Breath.
O Holy St.Joseph, Patron of Departing Souls.
Pray For Me. Amen
Blessed are the pure in
heart, for they shall see
God -Matt. 5:8
