The Chaplet of St. Joseph

on Saturday, 01 October 2016. Posted in Prayers & Rosaries

Pray every first Wednesday of the month

The chaplet is composed of seven mysteries in which we contemplate the seven joys and seven  sorrows that St. Joseph had in his lifetime. For each mystery, we pray one Our Father, ten Hail Josephs and a Glory Be.

Seven Sorrows and Joys of St. Joseph

1) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the virgin Mary’s pregnancy, be my guide through life and death.

2) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at Jesus’ birth, be my guide through life and death.

3) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the circumcision of Jesus, be my guide through life and death.

4) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the prophecy  of Simeon, be my guide through life and death.

5) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the flight into Egypt, be my guide through life and death.

6) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the return­ from Egypt, be my guide through life and death.

7) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the loss and the finding of the Child Jesus in the temple, be my guide through life and death.

Hail Joseph

Hail Joseph, Son of David, the just and the chaste,
Wisdom is with you;
Blessed are you among all men, and blessed is Jesus,
the fruit of Mary, your faithful spouse.
Holy Joseph, worthy foster-father and
guardian of Jesus Christ and of the holy Church,
 pray for us sinners and obtain divine wisdom for us from God,
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
