| A WORKER’S PRAYER |
 |
| Come, Holy Spirit, Divine Creator, true source of light and fountain of wisdom! Pour forth your brilliance upon my dense intellect, dissipate the darkness which covers me, that of sin and of ignorance. Grant me a penetrating mind to understand, a retentive memory, method and ease in learning, the lucidity to comprehend, and abundant grace in expressing myself. Guide the beginning of my work, direct its progress, and bring it to successful completion. This I ask through Jesus Christ, true God and true man, living and reigning with You and the Father, forever and ever. Amen. – St. Thomas Aquinas |

| FROM OUR OFFICERS |
 | A LETTER FROM THE PROMOTER Fr. Augustine Hillander O.P. “St. Joseph is the patron of the Universal Church, families, fathers, expectant mothers (pregnant women), travelers, immigrants, house sellers and buyers, craftsmen, engineers, working people in general, and a happy death. How did one man who says nothing in the Bible and who didn’t know Jesus in His public ministry have so many important jobs?” Learn more about this here |
 | A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Mrs. Denise Harvey O.P. “[…]But, we cannot accomplish profound faithfulness on our own. We need the intercession and guidance of Our Lady and St. Joseph. In this important month, let’s consecrate (or re-consecrate) ourselves to Mary and St. Joseph. With our fiat, let’s entrust our souls to their care.” Learn more about this here |
 | A LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Mrs. Helen Nguyen O.P. “God’s plan is perfect and we have been surrendering and resting in that. But would I do this all over again, absolutely. Because through it all – it has made me believe stronger than ever, in the power of prayer, of saintly intercessions, and the important role in which St. Joseph plays in our spiritual lives.” Learn more about this here |
