Through the merits bestowed on you by the Almighty Father, may we obtain sound health of body and soul so that we can be of service in building every home as a dwelling place of God.

Accompany us dearest Joseph in our pilgrimage to holiness and keep us against the allurements of the evil spirits until one day we can gratefully greet you in Paradise. We asked this through Jesus, Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with the Father and Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever. Amen.
