PRAYER TO SAINT JOSEPH, PATRON OF CARPENTERS

Dear Saint,
you are the Patron of the family of the Church.
God chose you to be the head
and protector of the Holy Family of Nazareth.
You chose to do a carpenter’s work
which made some say about Jesus:
“Is he not the carpenter’s son?”
Deign to bless and encourage carpenters
whose work is so much like yours.
