Good St. Joseph,

model of manhood for all who seek your help,

you were the husband and parent

that God calls us to be.

Joseph the worker,

teach us to value the dignity of work,

whether manual, professional, or domestic,

participating in the holiness of creation as you did

trusting in God to guide our hands.

Amen
