My prayer for all fathers:
Pope Francis wrote, in Patris Corde, that the “greatness of Saint Joseph is that he was the spouse of Mary and the father of Jesus.”
Good and gracious God, our Father in heaven, we ask for your blessing upon all fathers and men who you have called to be spiritual fathers to many. Strengthen them to be tender and loving husbands to their spouses and fathers to their children. Imbue them with your wisdom that they may be men of faith, hope, and love, courageously answering your call to protect and lead their families as Saint Joseph protected your Son, Jesus, and his Mother, Mary. May they have the humility to turn to you not only in times of challenges but every day of their lives, knowing that they can entrust themselves and their families to your divine love.
We ask this through the intercession of Saint Joseph, the Husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Worker, the Protector, and the Terror of Demons. Amen.
