Saint Joseph And Child Brown Woven Bracelet

St. Joseph is popularly known as the patron of fathers, workers, immigrants, travelers, and several countries, and his life was recorded in the Gospels, particularly Matthew and Luke. Joseph was a descendant of the house of King David. He was known as the father of Jesus when God sent him to earth and Mary's husband

As we start this new year, let us pray through the intercession of Saint Joseph for chaste men, men who can uphold the dignity of women, men who respect their children's freedom, and protect the sanctity of life. Men who can lead their families on their knees by praying and praising the Good Father.

Below is the prayer Pope Francis encourages us all to pray together.

Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer,

Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

To you, God entrusted his only son;

in you Mary placed her trust;

with you, Christ became man.

Blessed Joseph, to us too,

show yourself a father

and guide us in the path of life.

Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage,

and defend us from every evil.

Amen.
