Lord Jesus You grew up with Mary and Joseph in Nazareth - Lord have mercy
Christ Jesus - You give dignity to human work - Christ have mercy
Lord Jesus - You are our Lord and our Savior - Lord have mercy.
Priest: Lord, you are the source of all holiness. Let us therefore pray to Our Lord God who gave St. Joseph the light and strength he needed to be faithful at all times.
1. For our Holy Father, Pope Francis, our Bishop Joseph Kopacz, and all priests, that they follow the example of St Joseph and lead us through a responsible and dedicated leadership, we pray to the Lord.
2. For our Christian community, may we respect and love each other, and be dedicated to our families by following the example of Saint Joseph, we pray to the Lord.
3. For those entrusted with responsibility in various ministries of the church, may they set a modern Christian example for the people they lead, we pray to the Lord.
4. For all laborers and workers, may Saint Joseph the Worker inspire us to work wholeheartedly in this world, seeking always to give God glory and be faithful to the duties assigned to them, we pray to the Lord.
5. For all humanity, that through the intercession of Saint Joseph, we may find the opportunity to have secure employment and a fitting standard of living, we pray to the Lord.
6. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Father, we praise you for having led Saint Joseph to serve your Son Jesus and his Mother so faithfully; help us to be faithful to our responsibilities and serve you with love. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord for ever and ever.
