Prayer to St. Joseph after Communion
1 min
Saint Joseph, Guardian of virgins and father, to whose faithful care Christ Jesus, innocence itself, and Mary, Virgin of virgins, were entrusted, I ask and beg of thee, through these two dearest pledges, Jesus and Mary, preserve me from all defilement, and make it always possible for me unsullied in mind, pure in heart, and chaste in body to give to Jesus and Mary my holiest service. Amen.
Vírginum custos et pater, sáncte Ioseph, cuius fidéli custódiæ ipsa Innocéntia Christus Iesus et Virgo vírginum Maria commíssa fuit: te per hoc utrúmque caríssimum pignus Iesum et Maríam óbsecro et obtéstor, ut me, ab omni immundítia præservátum, mente incontamináta, puro corde et casto córpore Iesu et Maríæ semper fácias castíssime famulári. Amen.
