Prayer to Saint Joseph the Worker

Prayer to Saint Joseph the Worker

Saint Joseph is the Model and Protector of the worker who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow.
Glorious Saint Joseph, model of all those who are dedicated to work, obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penitence for the expiation of my many sins; to work in conscience, putting the respect of duty above my inclinations; to work with gratitude and joy, considering it an honor to use and develop through work the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, without ever backing down in the face of weariness and difficulties; to work above all with purity of intention and with detachment from myself, having constantly before my eyes death and the account I will have to render of the time lost, of the talents unused, of the good omitted and of the vain complacency in success, so disastrous to the work of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all in imitation of you, Patriarch Saint Joseph! This will be my motto in life and in death. Amen.
Saint Joseph the Worker

Preparatory Prayer

O Jesus! We are going to walk with You on the road to Calvary which was so painful for You. Make us understand the greatness of Your sufferings, touch our hearts with tender compassion at the sight of Your torments, in order to increase in us the regret of our faults and the love we wish to have for You.
Deign to apply to all of us the infinite merits of Your Passion, and in memory of Your sorrows, show mercy to the souls in Purgatory, especially to those who are most abandoned.
O Divine Mary, who first taught us to make the Way of the Cross, obtain for us the grace to follow Jesus with the sentiments Your Heart was filled with as You accompanied Him on the road to Calvary. Grant that we may weep with You, and that we may love Your divine Son as You do. We ask this in the name of His adorable Heart. Amen.
