TO THEE O BLESSED JOSEPH
DEVOTIONS & PRAYERS TO THE VIRGIN FATHER OF CHRIST
Pope Benedict XV, Bonum Sane 25 July 1920: We, full of confidence in the patronage of the one to whose provident supervision God was pleased to entrust the custody of His only-begotten Incarnate Son, and the Virgin Mother of God, earnestly exhort all the faithful, ... in time so turbulent for Christianity, to pray with greater commitment for the valuable help of St. Joseph. And since there are several ways you can venerate the Holy Patriarch, especially every Wednesday ... We want for everyone to heed this request - that all these devotions, as much as possible, are practised.
This booklet includes the following devotions and prayers with which you can venerate St. Joseph: Holy Cloak Devotion, Akathist Hymn to St. Joseph the Betrothed, Seven Sorrows and Joys of St. Joseph, Chaplet of St Joseph, The Little Office of St. Joseph, Thirty Days' Prayer, and many others!
