Day 5

Fathers

He raised a son who was not his by birth and is called his father anyway, throughout the Gospels, without qualification.

Pray for a father today: your own, living or dead; yourself if you are one; or a man raising children he did not father, who is doing exactly what Joseph did.

Begin

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Today’s petition

St. Joseph, pray for the fathers, and for the ones doing it without the title.

Add your own intention here, in your own words. It is not stored anywhere.

Close

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
