Prayer to St.

Joseph
Oh St. Joseph, whose protection is so
great, so strong, so prompt before the
throne of God, I place in you all my interests
and desires.
Oh St. Joseph, do assist me by your
powerful intercession and obtain for me
from your divine son all spiritual blessings
through Jesus Christ, our Lord; so that
having engaged here below your heavenly
power, I may offer my thanksgiving and
homage to the most loving of Fathers.
Oh St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I
dare not approach while he reposes near
your 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. St.
Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for
us.
Amen

Greetings to all!
On behalf of the St. Joseph Association of California, I would like to
extend a heartfelt welcome and warm greeting to all of you on the 25th
year fiesta celebration of our patron saint St. Joseph.
To all the donors, I thank you for all your support in making this
celebration a success and my project in the Philippines possible. It is
my goal, as president, to successfully provide prescription eyeglasses
to the elderly and destitute. As well as providing San Jose Elementary
School with toothbrushes and toothpaste to all 750 students for their oral
hygiene training and providing ten elevated bookshelves in classrooms to
prevent loss during potential flooding.
Maraming Salamat po! Happy 25th Fiesta! God Bless us all!

The St Joseph Novena

Saying a St Joseph Novena can be an effective way to get what your asking for. Say these prayers for nine days in a row. Pray with the same cause
in your mind each day, and really mean the words you say.

Day 6: God of our heavenly home, bless our home on earth. Let the spirit
of Mary and Joseph rest at our table, shape our words and actions, and
bring blessing to our children.
Day 7: God, our Father, give your fatherly spirit to those who are fathers
now. Like Joseph, give them hearts of devoted love for their wives and
children and strength for forgiveness and patience.

Day 1: Oh God, guide of those who listen and helper of those who hear
your voice, speak to me, as you did to St. Joseph, and help me accomplish
the things you give me to do .
Day 8: Give shelter, O God, to those who need it, and bring together families divided. Give us enough to eat, and decent work to earn our bread.
Day 2: O God, you love your people and bless the ordinary lives we quietly Care for us, O God.
live. As you blessed St. Joseph, bless what I do, however hidden and
simple it may be, and let all I do be done with love.
Day 9: Bless all families, O Lord especially those in need. Remembering
the life of your Son, we pray for the poor, for those who lack a good home,
Day 3: O God, ever faithful, you remember us always and in time reveal
for those in exile. Grant them a protector like Joseph, O God.
your blessings. Help me trust in you, as St. Joseph faithfully trusted, and
never let me lose faith in the wonderful gifts you promise me.
Day 4: God of families, bless the family thats mine. Keep us safe from
harm, and never let evil come between us. Let peace remain in our hearts.
Day 5: O God, who loves children, be kind to our children today. Give them
eyes of faith for seeing far, a loving heart for welcoming life, and a place
always at your side.
