  12. I just want to share that our prayers for a job for our son was answered by St. Joseph and St. Therese of the Child Jesus. Our son was given not one, but two offers, from two reputable law firms, and we are just overwhelmed by God’s kindness and mercy. He chose the job from the law firm that he has been applying to in the past, but was not given the chance, until now! God is really wonderful!

    Our son is doing well right now, just as we also prayed, and we pray that he will continue to be well, and move forward with his life. We are praying for his spiritual healing, and we hope that this will be granted to in God’s time.

    Thank you St. Joseph and St. Therese of the Child Jesus!

  13. my son who battles anxiety and depression has registered for to take his first 2 GED tests next week. thank you God and St. Joseph and Paul/Annie for getting me involved with this Novena!!

  17. I have been healed from an addiction of 30 years. Praise and Thanksgiving to Jesus and to our most wonderful Saint Joseph. What a wonderful role model for husbands and families. Go to Saint Joseph in times of temptation. Remember- He is the Terror of Demons. He will help you come closer to Jesus and to become more pure!

  18. Very thankful to St. Joseph for answering my prayer for a meaningful transforming consecration of my husband to St. Joseph. At that time that the novena started my husband was on his 33 days of preparation for the Consecration. I am so happy to see the positive changes in my husband. He became more prayerful (we always attend mass everyday since we retired 5 years ago) but now he spends time with me in the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament after the mass. He is also trying to work intentionally on developing in him the virtues of St. Joseph. I am very happy with the changes I see in him. He is really trying to be like St. Joseph in the way he reacts to situations. Thank you dear GOD for giving us St. Joseph as our spiritual father and as a role model for husbands, fathers, workers and for all of us, members of the Body of Christ, especially in his obedience and faithfulness to the will of the FATHER and love for Mary and JESUS. We thank Pope Francis for declaring this year “The Year Of St. Joseph” which gives us opportunities to know St. Joseph more. Thank you for the beautiful powerful novena to St. Joseph that we prayed together.

  19. I’ve been praying to St Joseph for my nephew David ti find a job, he is a good person, father of 3 children and a great ingeniero snd on the week of praying the Novena To St Joseph, he had an interview and was told they would let him know on “The 19 of March” we’ll St Joseph made the miracle! He got the job and was told that he was the person that they were looking for!!!
    Thank you St Joseph!

  20. My brother in law was not expected to survive covid. He’d been in intensive care on a ventilator and an induced coma for two weeks when I began the Novena to St Joseph. It looked like things were getting worse and he wouldn’t make it. Then suddenly his condition improved! I knew St joseph was working and interceding. Finally the ventilator has been removed and my brother in law is making more progress. He was literally at death’s door and his healing progress is a true miracle and gift.
    Thank you St Joseph!
    Thank you for such a beautiful Novena.

  21. One of prayer points was the fruit of the womb and my point of contact was my daughter who’s been married for two and half years.To God be the glory,my kid sister has conceived after trusting God for eight years.I believe this is an open door to the family.Praise God.

  22. Saint Joseph helped me during this novena for peace in our family.

  24. At The middle of the Novena I was notified by my Office of a Job promotion which had been long overdue. I’m now in a new job group thanks very much St. Joseph. Another prayer answered was my niece’s biopsy came out non toxic or non malignant. The third is a family member we were praying for, for the intervention of St. Joseph to get a better job because he is being exploited at his current job, was offered a new job elsewhere. These happened just this month of March. Glory to God for the intervention of St. Joseph.

  25. My mother have improved a lot. She is going back to her normal routine gradually though still having medication. Thanks so much for all your prayers . I always believed that your prayers are very powerful that helped in my mother healing process.

  26. I prayed the St. Joseph Novena by myself using the Key of Heaven prayer book. I asked for strength and healing graces to overcome financial loss
    and hurtful deception over a business contract. I have peace in my heart and courage to ask for some form of compensation. The keyword is peace,
    no matter the outcome.

    God bless you for keeping us in prayer.

  30. My son has been on many novena prayer lists for recovery from his sexual addiction and to return to the Catholic faith. He was once again put on the list for the novena to St. Joseph. Two days after the novena ended he sent a letter to the family saying he was done with pornography and realized the damage it had done to his life. My son’s middle name: JOSEPH. He still hasn’t returned to the church, but I will keep praying.

  31. I had a 3rd chest exray on St. Joseph feast day. I asked St. Joseph to be with me and show a clear exray with no flaws. He faithfully answered my prayer.
    Thank you St. Joseph. I’m waiting on another, and hope to receive that answer in the near future.

  32. I pray every Novena that I receive from John-Paul and Annie and it gives me piece of mind when I pray them. And in looking back over the year, my prayers have been answered and I Thank Everyone who prays and I will continue to pray with everyone because our prayers are being heard and answered, we just have to stop and take notice! Thank you, John-Paul and Annie for these Novenas!

  51. St. Joseph always answers! Too many to answered prayers to count. You may not know why or when but He always answers. And if He doesn’t, there is a good reason! THANK YOU ST. JOSEPH AND ST. JUDE

  52. My husband was having severe angina. I prayed the novena for answers. We got our answers yesterday. It wasn’t his heart. We caught a very serious situation in time and it’s all going to be okay. God is so good. Our prayers were answered.

  53. I was praying for my nephew Kevin that he would find a good job, a nice Catholic girl to share his life with and turn his life around. He has found a good job and should start in a couple of weeks if all goes well. Now I pray he finds the nice Catholic girl !

  55. I Hadley pray the St Joseph novena but this time I decided to dedicate everything to pray it committing my job and my papers issue to him. At the end of the novena, I was called few days after by my boss that the public bureau said I can start working and they’ll continue with the paperwork meanwhile I have stayed in the house for close to a month after signing a work contract. I thank God for using St Joseph through this novena to answer my prayers.

  56. I have had so many prayers answered through the various novenas offered on this site. However I find that when I pray religiously my favorite prayers to my favorite saints all things are possible through God. Read up on various Saints and their works , adopt them and pray to them. IT WORKS.

  57. I got a job which I had prayed for. Not only to St. Joseph but to St. Theresa. I pray just about every novena as faithfully as I can if I miss a day I go back and pick it up. Sometimes its overwhelming with worries and issues. But, I continue to pray my novenas.
    Thank you

  58. I have been praying every novena that John Paul and Anne send to my email. Every prayer is for my blood work to improve. My wbc came back much improved, in just one week. Thank you St. Joseph for answering my prayers and for your intercession. My chemo treatments are working. My Oncologist Dr. says I am a rarity that I have made it this long. With strength, hope and faith, God will get me through this.

  59. My nephew who had been unemployed for almost two years, was given a lucrative position a week after the feast of St. Joseph. My son-in-law also got a very good offer three days after the feast. St. Joseph – truly the family saint!

  60. I’ve been praying theses novenas for the past 6 years that my son would be free from his addiction to heroin and phenyl. Finally he has 60 days of sobriety from the demons. Thanks

  61. During the Novena to St Joseph, a long time friend was nearing the end of life. It was especially comforting to us to know she did have a peaceful passing that we had petitioned to St Joseph. In addition, we lost our beloved family pet during the Novena to St Joseph and she too passed peacefully. In times of sorrow, comfort of knowing the pain was gone eased the grief.

  62. Not an answered prayer but a much deeper understanding of St. Joseph’s place in the lives of both Jesus and Mary. The only word we know he would have spoken in the Gospels would have been to pronounce Jesus’s name at his circumcision.

  63. My boyfriend chose to put aside his addiction and start attending AA meetings to beat overcome alcoholism. Thank you, St. Joseph and all those who prayed with me. Continued prayers for his journey of sobriety.

  64. After so long of not working (for personal reasons) I got the first job I applied for at the local church! A first since I am terrible with interviews. I hadn’t even finished my novena! Thank you Jesus and St Joseph!

  66. When the St. Joseph Novena began we were trying to get our house ready to sell. We listed our house on Tuesday and on Friday the Feast of St. Joseph we had 4 great offers! I pray this Novena & buried the Statue of St. Joseph next to our for sale sign. Thank you St. Joseph for your intercession!
    Praise God for answering all our prayers!

  70. My son and daughter in law are finally expecting a baby. Our prayers were answered. Please keep praying for them as it is in an early stage. Thank you

  71. My sister was nearing the end of her pregnancy with twin girls during the St Joseph Novena, she had two full-term babies, in perfect health with no NICU, and they even learned to nurse right away and have been thriving! St Joseph truly interceded in their family, and was a guide and protector for them to have such a smooth delivery and great health ever since.

  72. I have been struggling for years with being a step-grandmother. I love all children, have worked with the youth of my parish at all age levels, I’ve taught religious education and yet I couldn’t fully accept these children that weren’t of my blood. That is until this Novena, my heart and my mind were opened through St. Joseph’s intercession.
    How easy it was for St Joseph to accept Jesus as his own, how can I not do the same.
    Thank you, thank you, thank you Lord.

  73. Saint Joseph interceded for us and God heard our prayers as my brother-in-law’s biopsy was negative and nothing showing as malignant.
    Also another friend who had chemo procedure a couple of weeks ago and the test resulted in no traces of cancer showing. Praise be God and His Holy Name.

    Thank you Lord Jesus, Thank you Mother Mary and Thank you Saint Joseph.

  74. I have been praying nearly every novena for around a yr or more. Not positive I get prayers answered but I am not giving up either. One day the one woman I left slip thru my fingers during a time I was in severe depression, she got me over the hump more then she ever realized and became impatient in some of my decisions when I was not thinking 100% clear. I am very hopeful she will return and I would happily aid in raising her beautiful daughter which I am sure she knew I would but had reservations outside of our relationship that drew us apart. My faith, prayers and intuition make me feel she is not work giving up on. I am sure she still has deep feelings and will overcome her fears one day. Hence i continue to have faith and pray we reunite. Amen

  75. My prayers were answered with this St. Joseph novena. My daughter who is immune compromised received her Covid vaccine. Thank you St. Joseph. Thank you God.
    And thank you for offering this novena!

  76. My brother recently broke things off with his fiancé (it was very good that this happened). They had bought a house together about 9 months ago. I prayed that the sale of their home would go over rapidly, smoothly, justly (for both of them), and lucratively. She was being disagreeable about how proceeds would be split. St. Joseph came to the rescue! They were able to sell the house for a large profit and had a very quick escrow process. The proceeds were split very fairly and there is peace between them.

  77. my friend Rob, required a better job, with his heart condition he was ”let go” from a poor paid job. PRAISED BE J, M, J .. and St Joseph’s quick answer.

  78. I am saying my 9th novena and think something positive is happening with a step grandchild getting help (not drugs) for tech addiction. Good person, friendly, had great grades…but somehow overpowered by this. Please keep this child in your prayers. Parents are at the end of road of hope.
    St. Joseph I hope will help.

  79. My son’s test results were normal after appts on Friday Feast Day of St Joseph.

    My sister who was unemployed went on an interview Friday as well, she was told she was hired and at the pay rate, she needed.
    She was so happy and couldn’t believe she got the hourly pay she needed. Thank you, St Joseph, for your intercession 🙏 Amen

    Marisol

  81. My petition for a grandchild was answered prayer. My son and wife is now expecting a baby. They were childless for five years.

  82. I prayed that St, Joseph would remove a hospital bill for over eight thousand dollars. My medical insurance did not pay the bill but said the bill was invalid because it was submitted past the deadline. Thank you St Joseph for your intersession..

  83. I have been saying novenas and praying my adult children make amends and love each other again. I am seeing great improvements with their relationship and know God is answering my prayers. I pray all of the novenas please keep on doing your great work!

  84. My daughter in law has been given a clean slate on her health. No more cancer. Thank you very much St Joseph.
    My youngest brother is trying to quit smoking. Thank you very much St Joseph.

  85. I got the job I’ve been trying to get for the past year and will be able to pursue my Master’s degree through it. I have unfortunately also began suffering some medical issues that got pretty bad on St. Joseph’s feast day nearly dying but I leaned on him and Mary both of which I’ve consecrated myself and believe that God has carried me past the worst of it and on the road to recovery just might take some time.

  86. That everyone is staying well, is a blessing with our prayers, in these days the list gets so long. Will stay in prayers and add our intentions, to the beautiful novenas. That we have the health and happiness and the strength to keep going in our catholic faith. God Bless !
