NOVENA TO ST. JOSEPH - EXAMPLE 2

For a more enriching experience, go down on your knees to pray or take it one step further and prostrate yourself (lay face down) on the floor while praying.

Novena for strengthening marriage, home and family. Keep in mind that St. Joseph was Jesus' foster father. While you meditate on this Novena, remember this fact. That God Himself trusted Joseph to take care of His Beloved Son. This is a big deal when you pray this Novena. Have Faith!

O Blessed Saint Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I pray you to join with me in praising God the Father through his divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask for (state your specific request or intention here!)

We have been unfaithful to the unfailing love of God the Father; beg of Jesus mercy for us his brothers and sisters. Amid the splendors of God's loving presence, do not forget the sorrows of those who weep. By your prayers and those of your most holy spouse, our blessed Lady, may the love of Jesus answer our call of confident hope. Amen
