Act of Consecration to Saint Joseph

O dearest Saint Joseph,

I consecrate myself to your honour

and give myself to you,

that you may always be my father,

my protector and my guide

in the way of salvation.

Obtain for me a greater purity of heart

and fervent love of the interior life.

After your example may I do all my actions

for the greater glory of God,

in union with the Divine Heart of Jesus

and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

O Blessed Saint Joseph,

pray for me,

that I may share in the peace

and joy of your holy death.

Amen.
