  1. I had many answered prayers but also unexpected surprises from Saint Joseph’s. Novena:
    1- I was looking some justice in a matter concerning some false accusations at work place, issues started March 5th, justice was made on March 15 when1 of accuser decided to resigned or be fired. Accuser 2 had issues with a customer and was reported to administration .
    On March 16 ,I received an expected significant donation to help with my brother’s orphans overseas. On March 19 Day of Consecration I gave the consecration book to a person I never met before at church after Mass only to find out that person middle name was Joseph . The young man was in tears when I told him this was to honor St Joseph after my Consecration . On the same day I received the same significant amount of money from a stranger after mass ,when I went to the chapel for my Holy hr talking to the stranger I found out his middle name was also Joseph, that next day I share this with a friend who also gave me some money for my brother’s children . On Monday I opened a saving account for my Nieces and Nephews and they are very grateful.
    I told them exactly how they got the money and that I will put some money every month so they will always have money for school, food, and medical expenses. My family has welcome St Joseph into our family life , Saint Joseph , Saint Joseph ,Lover of poverty pray for us.

  26. Good morning, my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ!

    I want to thank God for His faithfulness and His goodness and mercies upon my life and family.
    I live in the UK and I am a student.
    I am married with 2 children.
    Since I joined the novena prayers, a lot of things have improved in my family. I noticed a tremendous change in my life and that of my kids. My kids are doing very well in their academics. My husband is not the prayer type but I am believing God that one day he will start to acknowledge the goodness of God in our family.
    I am a final year student and I applied for a pre-registration placement in my 3rd year which is meant to commence July, 2021 ( this year). I specifically asked God to give me a pre-registration placement that would be suitable for me, considering that I am a married woman with 2 children. I prayed to be posted to a location close to my house address to make it easier for me in terms of transportation.
    When it was time for the first offer, I got an offer but was posted to a place which was miles away from my home address. I prayed for God to post me to a different branch of the same company closer to my home address in the second offer round. I amended my preferences before the time for second offer round, hoping and believing God for an upgrade.I didn’t relent in my request and continued to mention it during the novens prayers.
    Behold, during the second offer round, I got my offer upgraded to my preferred location. I received the email about my offer in my preferred location before 12pm on Wednesday, the18th of November. 2pm was the time we were told to expect the email confirmation of any second offer where applicable. To be honest, this offer the first offer that I got, I didn’t really apply for it in the first place but God didn’t only give me the offer but helped to me to change the location of the Branch of the Company where I was posted to a more preferred location. Thanks be to God Almighty. I pray that the good work that God has started, He would bring it to perfection in Jesus name,Amen and Amen 🙏
    Some of my colleagues didn’t get an offer. In one of my prayer requests, I asked God to restore my relationship with my husband as well as peace to marriage. God granted my prayer requests. I have received my evidence. I and my husband have been able to work on our relationship and there is peace in my home. I am still trusting God to fulfil my other prayer requests. I have come to return all the glory to God. I pray that God should perfect everything that concerns me and my family and to secure my placement so that everything will work out as planned in Jesus name,Amen. God bless you and the entire crew. I have come return all the praise and thanksgiving to God Almighty.
    I am still hopeful that God would grant my other prayer requests in Jesus name,Amen and Amen 🙏
