Today is the Octave Day of the Easter Solemnity of St. Joseph,
Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Patron of the Universal Church.
Prayer
to St. Joseph for a Happy Death
O
Glorious St. Joseph, behold I choose thee today for my special patron in life
and at the hour of my death. Preserve and increase in me the spirit of
prayer and fervor in the service of God. Remove far from me every kind of
sin; obtain for me that my death may not come upon me unawares, but that I
may have time to confess my sins sacramentally and to bewail
them with a most perfect understanding and a most sincere and perfect
contrition, in order that I may breathe forth my soul into the hands of
Jesus and Mary. Amen
