St. Joseph is like a glorious doctor: he guarded the greatest consecrated souls, Jesus and Mary; he can also guard each one of us. Let us entrust ourselves to St. Joseph, because the Heavenly Father has great trust in him.

Some Prayers
For Padre Pio, prayer was not just a good deed but a way of life, lived moment by moment. He said of prayer: “Prayer is the effusion of our heart into God’s… when it is well done, it moves the Divine Heart and makes Him always more inclined to grant our requests. Let us pour out our whole soul to God in prayer. He is captivated by our prayers and comes to our aid“.

Say the Hail, Holy Queen
St. Joseph, foster father of Jesus, pray for us.
John Paul II Canonization of Padre Pio, June 16, 2002
Teach us, we pray, humility of heart,
so that we may be counted among
the little ones of the Gospel
to whom the Father promised to reveal
the mysteries of His Kingdom.
Help us to pray without ceasing,
certain that God knows what we need
even before we ask Him.
Obtain for us the eyes of faith
that will help us recognize in the poor and suffering,
the very face of Jesus.
Sustain us in the hour of trouble and trial and,
if we fall, let us experience the joy
of the sacrament of forgiveness.
Grant us your tender devotion to Mary,
mother of Jesus and our Mother.
Accompany us on our earthly pilgrimage
toward the blessed Homeland,
where we too,
hope to arrive to contemplate
forever the Glory of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Prayer to the Guardian Angel
Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
to whom God’s love commits me here,
ever this day be at my side,
to light and guard,
to rule and guide.
Amen.
