All fatherhood in heaven and on earth has its origin in God. Let us turn to him and pray:
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
All-holy Father, you revealed to Saint Joseph your eternal plan of salvation in Christ,
— deepen our understanding of your Son, true God and true man.
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
Father in heaven, you feed the birds of the air, and clothe the fields with the fruit of the earth,
— give all your children their daily bread, to sustain soul and body.
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
Maker of the universe, you have entrusted your creation to our safekeeping,
— may all who work receive a just reward for their labors.
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
God of all righteousness, you want us all to be like you,
— may Saint Joseph inspire us to walk always in your way of holiness.
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
Look kindly on the dying and the dead, and grant them your mercy,
— through the intercession of Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Our Father in heaven, hear our prayer.
