Glory be to God!
I have been praying several novenas for my niece for healing; physical, spiritual, emotional and relationship healing.
My niece had been stranded at an airport during a snow storm and stopped and bought a Bible.
Today she started telling me about certain things she read in Genesis and what it means to her. My heart was bursting with joy that my prayers had been answered. Now we can connect on a much deeper level as we are on the same journey.
Then she mentioned today as well that someone had referred her to a special kind of Chiropractor and that as a result of the treatment, she had had the best night’s sleep than she had had in a long time.
She was born on the feast of St. Joseph and I know that these are answers to my prayers and there is more to come.
Thank you St. Joseph for hearing my prayer and interceding to Jesus and Mary on my behalf and that of my niece.
Praying go sale of daughter’s house. On 8th day of novena they accepted an offer. Thank you St Joesph. Pray for sale to close. LD
St Joseph is my patron saint and has answered my prayers. I prayed this novena for my son’s business to become more profitable and he answered my prayers. Also, I prayed for my daughter to meet a good Christian boy and she did and he is Catholic!! Thank you St Joseph for answering my prayers in Jesus’ name!!
We prayed for our grandson to get a particular job. He is hired. We prayed for our grand daughter, who is pregnant; and the baby was positioned feet first. The baby is now in the position necessary to be born correctly. Thank God for His Goodness; and St. Joseph, our Patrom.

I was being denied increment at work for six years and I have been back and forth at the Ministry of education and it was to no avail. Two weeks ago, the ministry intervened and all by increment have been processed. The power of prayers. Thank you St. Joseph
I have been praying for my children to return to church and they are attending mass! It is a blessing. Our 8 yr old grandson was diagnuwith seizure disorder and I have been praying for him and he has been seizure free since the end of January. God is so good! Thank you St Joseph.
Thank you St. Joseph for hearing my prayer. We were in a medium drought, & was in desperate need of moisture. The last day of the novena, it was an extremely hot & humid day & I was hoping that the heat & humidity would spark some kind of thunderstorm. The next day, we received some much needed rain. Every day since the feast of St. Joseph, it has rained. Thank you St. Joseph for the much needed moisture!
My son and his wife had a bitter divorce. He left her for another woman.
I have been praying for reconciliation between them. Last weekend they arranged to meet for dinner , through my daughter,— he with his new girlfriend and she with her boyfriend, and had a pleasant evening. At least now they can be in the same room.
I’ve been praying for my husband to get an agent for work. I’ve always asked during the novena. Just recently an agent contacted me for him to get some bookings. It is true never give up!
I have been struggling with diabeties ,high blood sugar readings, when I started the novena my blood sugar readings have dropped to normal . thank you st. joseph and the heavenly Father…please continue my wonderful blood sugar readings.
My husband needed expensive treatments and we weren’t sure if insurance would cover it but they did. I have a holy card of St. Joseph that my Grandmother gave me 40 years ago. It became worn so I had it laminated. It is one of my daily prayers….In the year 1505, this prayer was sent from the Pope to Emperor Charles when he was going into battle. Whoever shall read this prayer or hear it or keep it about themselves shall never die a sudden death or be drowned nor shall poisen take effect on them, or be burned in any fire. Say for 9 mornings for anything you desire. It has never been known to fail.
When my house was for sale, one offer fell through and we began praying to St. Joseph. Within days, we had an offer and the closing fell on His feast day. Our prayers were answered, after 46 viewings! Thank you, St. Joseph! I am a believer!
I started praying the Sain’t Joseph Novena at the beginning for my brother who was a broken man. During that time he went in the hospital with a diabetic coma. I then started praying for a release from his heart breaking life. I know my prayers were answered because three days later he died. He had been blessed with a priest and his family by his side. I know he is in heaven now. I know that novena helped him die peacefully. Thank you for all the novenas you have published. There’s always some person or reason for prayers.
My boyfriend was having issues about the way his life was going. From layoff and new lesser paying job, relationship with kids and our relationship. He finally got answers and feels better about things.
This was a very cleansing lent for me thanks to Mary Lenaburg’s I beleive it was God Makes All Things New. It motivated me to go to a private confession with our priest. Stuff I glossed over in confessions, 50 years ago and 35 years ago were haunting me. Mary motivated me to do this. Finally, I can let go of these sins. That is a miracle. Thank you Mary and Pray More Retreats for the wonderful retreat.
Thank you, Jesus. Your unwavering love and compassion is helping us through this rocky time.
Prayed the novena along with multiple other family members for a quick sell of our home due to a job relocation. Not only did it go under contract before it was placed on the market, the house in the new location that we wanted came back on the market and we are under contract on that one too!!!
I prayed the St. Joseph Novena for my sons to always be able to provide for their families. One son received an sizable back pay check and an increase in a monthly check he had been receiving. The other son’s sales have increased considerably!
During this Novena we were praying for my husband to get a job since he is the breadwinner and we have 6 children still at home. He was finishing up a career job of 30 years. During the Novena he got an interviewed and his first day of work began on Monday, 1 day after the novena ended! We’re moving back to our hometown too! Thank you St Joseph for BIG answered prayers!
Our family was praying for our grandson to be accepted into the University of Notre Dame. Last week he received his acceptance letter. God is great, thank you St. Joseph.
Please pray for my complete healing from pancreatic cancer. My place will be safe from people who wants to break in my property. Please pray for healing of relationship in the family & accepting differences which causes arguments. I am praying to help my nephews & nieces get a job that will provide the needs of their family. Please touch all persons who have cancer & undergoing treatment. Guide me St Joseph in my everyday life dealing with things since my husband’s death. Thank you St. Joseph for guiding us everyday.
My grandson who is only 18 and his girlfriend is 17 told me they thought she had gotten pregnant and did not want to have the baby. I prayed the Novena and asked St. Joseph for them to accept the baby as he did Jesus. On the last day of the Novena he told me they are going to keep the baby and now I pray that he finds a job so he can talk care of the child. He now looks forward to being a father. I ask for prayer for him to be a good father.
Praise be to God for helping me understand my path towards married life. I was praying this novena with few amazing friends for a potential husband. I have started conversing with a guy i had in mind, let’s see what God has in store for both of us. Thanks to cool St. Joseph for opening a pathway.

We have been praying to St. Joseph for the sale of our home. On his feast day, I said an extra prayer that he help us find just the right people who need our home and the very next day an offer came in from a family with several small children. Our beloved family home where we watched our own 5 children grow, will again be filled with love and laughter. Thank you St. Joseph!
I am trusting that God is answering my novena to St. Joseph in a way I don’t yet understand. My husband is transitioning to being an independent contractor and that makes me fearful. However, he has had positive reactions to his reaching out so I am trusting this is the way God has directed us. Please keep praying for us.

My Husband (Steve) had been out of work since October of last year. He left his one job at the time to go to a job that was to be permanent full time and was not. He continued his search putting out applications to camp jobs, Locally and even to fast food places. Steve is not a young man he is in his 60’s. I started the novena and on day 5 we received a phone a call. A chef from a hotel chain called. He saw Steve’s resume and he didn’t have a position but he had to call him. The Chef asked if he could give Steve’s number to a friend who needed help at his Restaurant. The Chef didn’t know Steve. He said yes and with in an hour the owner of the restaurant called. Asked Steve to come down right away and hired him on the spot.
Amazing how God works and has others as Angels to help around us.

I appreciate receiving these novenas on line.
I am hopefully waiting on God and the intersession of St. Joseph on my intentions which i asked while praying the novena. I know they will be answered and I will have a testimony. I continue to thank God in my state of waiting.
I’ve been praying for my husband and wondering what God’s planned for us! After we were married I’ve noticed that we have different understandings about our faith. Saying the St Joseph Novena I’ve realized that God’s in control of my husband not me! I can only pray, pray for my husband’s faith journey
I’m more at peace in our relationship and have a calling to be more involved in the laity in my community church. Amen ????

We are hoping to adopt a baby. We had been waiting longer than anticipated to learn the decision of an expectant couple who was considering adoption for their unborn baby and who had the opportunity to view our profile book, among others’. We got word on the feast of St. Joseph that they decided to parent their baby, not place her for adoption. We are so thankful to St. Joseph for interceding for us and this couple, to help guide us along the way! We are thankful to have been able to pray for them as they were discerning God’s will for their family, and we continue to ask St. Joseph’s prayers for all families especially those who face unexpected circumstances, such as unplanned pregnancy or a disability or health issue, and for those families brought together through adoption.

God be praised and thank you St Joseph he got a part time job offer as well as another part time job on those days he was not working the first. Now he has work 6 days of the week. Thank you for everyone’s collective prayers.
I prayed the St. Joseph Novena. I still haven’t found employment (it’s been 3 months since I was laid off.) But the most AMAZING thing happened a day or two after the Novena. I had just gone to bed and was still fairly awake. I wasn’t praying but rather just thinking of the Novena, the fact that I was still unemployed, and I started to worry. Within a few moments the room filled with a sense of calm. When I use the word “filled” I mean it; I could actually feel a pressure in the room. I choose to believe St. Joseph was providing me with reassurance…I’m going to be fine. +
During the Novena to St Joseph, I asked that I may please get my driver’s lisence before the end of March. I have been struggling for a long time and I desperately needed it. During the Novena I booked for the test and I went to write it on the 27th of March and I know that St Jospeh interceded for me.
Thank you St Joseph
My brother and I received employment. Thank you, St. Joseph thru the Sacred Heart of Jesus & Immaculate heart of Mary.
This happened some 30 years ago but it is such a testament to the intercession of Our beloved St Joseph. Before EWTN was know as it is today, it was available selectively. After visiting my mother some 20 miles from my home I noticed she had the channel and I so wanted it in my area I set out to make it happen. I called the cable company, spoke to the manager, and he explained I would have to “prove” the people in the area wanted it by selecting it on a survey that would come with there June billing statement. It was March so I seized the opportunity and visited 7 surrounding parishes, making arrangements to have a little writing in their bulletins asking parishioners to request EWTN. At this time I also started a 33 day novena to St Joseph for this intention. Each day I said the novena I put a little heart to check off completed. March, April, May and June passed. I was at the shore in July and decided to call the cable manager for the good news. To my disappointment he said the survey didn’t go out as expected until the next month and they just didn’t get enough respondents. I was devastated and decided to go out for a walk around the marina. As I walked and thought and prayed, I looked down and there was a marina rock shaped exactly like my little hearts I wrote each day. It hit me! Have faith! St Joseph WILL obtain this for me somehow. I took the rock home to remind myself to trust. Five months past and it was a snowy January day. I went to my mailbox, looked inside and there was the new cable lineup! Not even waiting to get out of the cold, I opened it and there at the top of the new lineup for the year…..EWTN!! I was ecstatic! How? But then I remembered St Joseph. The story doesn’t end here. Curious, I phoned the manager and reminded him who I was. Then I asked, ” what is it that changed your mind “? “Well, he said. “Not long after I spoke with you a curious thing happened. All of these surveys started coming back, hundreds, requesting the channel”. That was enough to put the show on the line up”. “Hundreds, really?” From where, I asked? ” From a parish in Aston, Pa, St Josephs Church”. I smiled. I have never doubted St Joseph ‘s intercession and I have shared that story of trust (& the rock) for 32 years with my CCD students❤️
I know this is more than a comment but I wanted to share????
I’ve been planning on divorcing my abusive husband but was afraid to make a move. I prayed the novena to St. Joseph who came through for me, at the end of the novena St. Joseph had him travel, I was able to move out while he was out of town. I’ve started divorce proceedings. Even my parish priest said, you’ve got your answer, now move…
I also prayed that my newly graduated son would find a job. He has not been doing anything for 4 months. On Monday he got his first interview, praise God!!! Thank you so much St. Joseph, so powerful, trustworthy and loving. He is the protector!

After several months of not much work coming into my company – finally work is coming in. I am so grateful to dear St. Joseph and our Blessed Mother and many other saints for hearing my prayers!
On Feb 7, I am as laid off from work. I had solid interviews after however none of the employers made and offer. I was told by two of my spiritual mentors to say this novena. On day 13 I received not 1 but 2 solid opportunities. I was advised yesterday that there will be an offer made and the employer is in the process of doing a back ground check. I am also pursuing the other opportunity because I am as told I was a solid candidate. My goal is to get two offers and make my decision. I now know why the other jobs didn’t work out. These jobs both offer a great work life balance and the pay is a lot more. I am so grateful to this novena, it’s so powerful and I thank St Joseph for the intercession. Glory be to god !!

My husband has gone back to school full time to get a Masters in Theology. This past semester has been very hard for him and he was struggling to focus on his work and our finances have been tight. While praying the novena, he suddenly had motivation like never before and was able to finish a paper he had been stuck on for weeks. Also, his scholarship money came in a month earlier than expected and relieved a lot of burdens for us. Thank you St Joseph!
I got the positive results I was hoping for! Thank for your prayers St Joseph

I have been praying for better/bigger employment for FIVE years now. It’s been such a hard and difficult road, especially with all the feelings of rejection and low self worth that comes from being unemployed BUT during the Novena, I have started the road to getting a pretty awesome contract with a huge institution, the very one I left five years ago, this time with a bigger and better position. Thank you St Joseph! I now wait, in joyous anticipation, for the answers to my other prayers re finding a holy spouse, etc.
