Regina Angelorum

Wire Wrapped Rosaries

Brother Andre
Brother Andre's great confidence in St. Joseph inspired him to
recommend this saint's devotion to all those who were afflicted in
various ways. Many were cured through the prayers of Brother
Andre and St. Joseph, and they were grateful that their prayers
had been heard. Brother Andre steadfastly refused to take any
credit for these cures, and although usually a gentle man, he was
known to become enraged at those who suggested that he possessed
any healing powers. Brother Andre's reputation grew and soon he
was known as the miracle-worker of Mount Royal.

O St. Joseph whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before
the Throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires. O St.
Joseph do assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from
your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord; so
that having engaged here below your Heavenly power I may offer my
Thanksgiving and Homage to the most Loving of Fathers. O St. Joseph, I
never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not
approach while He reposes near your heart. Press him in my name and
kiss His fine head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw
my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of departing souls, pray for us.

the spouse of the Blessed Virgin and the foster father of Thy Son: we
beseech The, through all the services he has rendered to Jesus and Mary
on earth, that Thou wouldst make us worthy of his intercession and grant
us to enjoy the happiness of his company in heaven. Through Christ our
Lord. Amen.

Memorare to St. Joseph
Remember, O most pure Spouse of the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph my
beloved patron, that never has it been heard that anyone invoked thy
patronage and sought thine aid without being comforted. Inspired by this
confidence, I come to thee and fervently commend myself to thee. Ah,
despise not my petition, dear Foster Father of our Redeemer, but accept
it graciously. Amen.
Prayer to St. Joseph the Workman
By Pope St. Pius X
O glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor,
obtain for me the grace to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty
above my natural inclinations, to work with gratitude and joy, in a spirit
of penance for the remission of my sins, considering it an honor to employ
and develop by means of labor the gifts received from God, to work with
order, peace, moderation and patience, without ever shrinking from
weariness and difficulties, to work above all with purity of intention and
detachment from self, having always death before my eyes and the
account that I must render of time lost, of talents wasted, of good
omitted, of vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God. All
for Jesus, all through Mary, all after thine example, O Patriarch, St.
Joseph. Such shall be my watchword in life and in death. Amen.
