Good Saint Joseph our Patron and our Guide. May you intercede today on behalf of workers everywhere and in every profession. May you ask blessing and strength upon us. May we see the dignity which comes to us through our fidelity to our work.
Daily Prayer to St. Joseph the Worker Glorious Saint Joseph, pattern of all who are devoted to toil, obtain for me the grace to toil in the spirit of penance, in order thereby to atone for my many sins; to toil conscientiously, putting devotion to duty before my own inclinations; to labor with thankfulness and joy, deeming it an honor to employ and to develop, by my labor, the gifts I have received from Almighty God; to work with order, peace, moderation, and patience, without every shrinking from weariness and difficulties; to work above all with a pure intention and with detachment from self, having always before my eyes the hour of death and the accounting which I must then render of time ill-spent, of talents unemployed, of good undone, and of my empty pride in success, which is so fatal to the work of God.

After leaving my full-time job to tend to family needs, the Lord placed me here at Joseph's House, a surprise and a joy. Archives
