  1. Hello
    My wife and I haven praying for this intention for about four years. It envolves relationship problems .
    I feel embarrassed to say that this is the first time we have prayed any type of prayer to St. Joseph.
    About half way through the novena the request was answered.
    We pray other novenas such as “Mary undoer of knots” etc. But St.Joseph was the key.
    God Bless Bill

  13. Thank God, Mother Mary and St Joseph. I joined in the 9 days Novena to St Joseph, on the 8th day I asked for a very special intention during an adoration and called St Joseph to intercede for me. After the adoration I received an answer to the pray. Yesterday the feast of St Joseph I again begged St Joseph for intervention on the application I made for a job. Same afternoon I was invited for an interview for same job. I cannot thank God enough, thank you St Joseph.

  14. Thank you St. Joseph for your intercession to God in the life of my daughter. I prayed that she renewed contact with other relatives and this has been possible although it was by means of my son. Still she has been able to welcome them in her house and it was a beginning. Now I pray that she will continue to keep contact with them because they are family and they have done so much for her. Show her the way Lord. Alone she will not be able to make it.

  21. Several of the prayers asked for us to pray for engaged couples or our future spouses. I not only prayed for all couples but my boyfriend and I specifically. I prayed that he would finally propose to me. The novena worked faster than I expected. By day 6, he proposed!! We are now engaged!! St. Joseph, Pray for us!

  22. I was praying for my family’s upcoming move during this Novena. Today, we signed the closing documents for the sale of our home and I couldn’t believe it when I wrote the date next to my signature! I have been praying for St Joseph’s intercession for this move for several months now and even requested several months ago that the Franciscan Friars pray for this intention at their Mass today. The timing of everything really brought me so much comfort. Thank you for sharing this Novena.

  23. I prayed to St. Joseph a nine day novena, it must be said for nine mornings and it has never been known to fail. I also prayed this novena to St. Joseph also asking Mary his virgin wife, Jesus his son and God our Father to aid in this request. IT WORKED! It has brought me so much closer to St. Joseph, Mary Jesus and God our Father I am so grateful to them! God Bless

  24. I prayed to you dearest St. Joseph for my husband’s health and tests to be clear of lymphoma and they are. I’m humbled and grateful for your intersession. He continues facing challenges, I thank you for protecting and watching over him, please continue to look after him and our family.

  25. Today on the feast day of St. Joseph my friend’s house sold. I prayed for the sale of the house and relief of financial crisis. The house was on the market for 9 days. Thank you St. Joseph for inteterceding.

  26. Thank you, St. Joseph, for answering my prayers!

    On the last day of the St. Joseph Novena, my husband received a awesome job offer after being out of work for a year.

    I am forever grateful of this blessing.

    Thank you, Jesus, Mary & Joseph.

  27. Thank you St Joseph for answering my prayer. My career which has been stagnant for years will now progress and thanks to a generous remuneration I can now get out of debt. I know that I have a lot of learning and hard work ahead of me, but I am confident that your continued intercession will help me. A Mass in thanksgiving will be offered on Easter Monday.

    Once again thank you from the bottom of my heart, St Joseph x

  28. I have prayed this novena to St Joseph to ask him to intercede in the lives of myself, my husband, my children, my family, and my friends, that we all grow in his love for each other, God, and in St Joseph’s love. Amen

  29. Lately my husband job has been slow. His last check was only $89.00 for a two week pay period. We were so stressed out trying to figure out how to pay our bills. Our son offered to pay our phone bill and car payment and my husband received a partial unemployment check that came in unexpectedly because we thought he didn’t qualify. We are caught up on our bills this month and it seems my husband job is picking up a bit. Thank you Lord for all your blessings!

  30. I have been praying for the last 36years for a descent home. During this Novena, I received a revelation that, ” my prayer was heard long time”. Some money is available and now I am making plans to start the house plan. Thank you Lord, praise you Jesus, thank you O St. Joseph.
    And thank you John-Paul and Anne.

  31. I had a long time with my daughter Caroline and we were able to talk about a terrible time in her past. She needed to hear my love and support and let her tell how terrified she was. This comes as an answer to prayer because I prayed for healing for her from her past with her father who was not able to love or protect her and she never really felt safe. It was a good time and I am still praying for her as well as all my children to be healed from our past. I see healing every day. God Bless and thank you for your prayers.

  32. Half way through the novena,my husband had a phone interview for a job close by. Keep praying that he will get the job. Thank you to the intercession of Saint Joseph! Glory be to God!

  33. A friend of mine just found out today March 19 that her tumor was benign. Glory to God and St Joseph for his powerful intercessions and prayers. Amen.

  34. I had some good news yesterday and moving in the right direction. However, while my prayers have not yet been answered, I still have faith that through the intercession of Saint Joseph, God will hear and answer my prayers. Saint Joseph pray for me, hear and answer my prayers. Amen

  35. When I was concerned about my future a year ago, I prayed this novena for help and guidance. I heard a clear answer on something I wasn’t expecting, and when I followed this guidance, I was able to strengthen my relationship and pursue my dream job freely, without concern.

    Now I prayed this novena for a friend to be able to return to our educational program (for my dream job) by meeting the rigorous requirements, and I was unexpectedly blessed by having my own requirements met- and exceeded! Now I can also go back to our program. I’m not sure if my friend will be able to, but I also prayed for her to know God loves her so much and she told me she knows this without me mentioning it. So praise God and thank you St. Joseph for your intersession. Jesus I trust in You!

  36. I have been praying for my husband to regain his confidence as a leader and to not be so hard on himself. Almost immediately I noticed a positive change in him. Thank you for this Novena and for praying with me.

  37. Not initially realizing that St. Joseph was the patron of the unemployed, I began this novena to pray for a friend who was going to be interviewing for a job after being out of work for several months. Half way through the novena, he was offered the job. I have used the remainder of the prayers to ask for his success in his training and as a thank you to St. Joseph.

  38. Thank you for all the prayers sometimes what you’re asking is not what God wants you to have because He is preparing you for something big. Thy will be done.

  39. Son who had abandoned church shows slight interest in returning and spouse seems more understanding and I’m more forgiving

  40. I have prayed this novena to St Joseph to ask him to intercede in the lives of myself, my husband and my family, that we all grow in his love for each other, God, and in St joseph’s love. Amen

  75. My husband was ready to quit trying to heal in our marriage on the evening of the 6th day (Friday) of this Novena…he said he had given up hope and there was no reason for him to keep trying. (The biggest issue started 4 and 1/2 years ago, but we’ve struggled for 15 years or more out of our 34 years of marriage.)
    I had a hard time sleeping that night (we’ve been in separate bedrooms for over a year now) but on the morning of the 7th day, he told me God had spoken to him in his heart while he was in bed that night (you’d have to know my husband to know that this was a miracle in itself) and God said to him, “You have to go through the tomb in order to be resurrected.” His whole attitude changed overnight! We went to the 2nd monthly meeting of SAA Couples Group that morning with a whole new outlook and desire to work through the process. Praise and Thanksgiving to God and St. Joseph for answered prayer! The first time I’ve witnessed such a visible sign after praying so many Novenas over the years!
