Joseph trusted in God.

Even if we are afraid or troubled…. Let us trust in God.

Joseph was truthful

Even when it is hard to be honest….. Let us never be ashamed to speak the truth.

Joseph was respectful

Even if we feel they do not deserve our respect…. Let us respect ourselves and others.

Joseph was faithful

Even in times of doubt…. Let us be people of faith.

Joseph was a man of honour.

Even if we fail at times…. Let us strive to be people of honour.

Saint Joseph,

You were a faithful husband to Mary

And you watched over Jesus when he was a boy.

We ask you to watch over us too.

Pray for us that we will trust God in all things as you did.

Amen
