Saint Joseph the Worker Novena
April 22 - 30
.
O Glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor, obtain the grace for me to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my natural inclinations; to work with gratitude and joy, in a spirit of penance for the remission of my sins, considering it an honor to develop by means of labor the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, without ever shrinking from weariness and difficulties; to work above all with purity of intention and detachment from self, having always death before my eyes and the account I must render of time lost, of talents wasted, of good omitted, of vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God.
.
All for Jesus, through Mary, all after thine own example, O Patriarch St. Joseph. Such shall be my watchword in life and in death. Amen.
.
Pope St. Pius X
