The Novena to Saint Joseph is a Roman Catholic Novena prayed to Saint Joseph. 〔''Saints' Blessings'' by Meera Lester 2005 ISBN 1-59233-138-6 page 93〕 Like all other Novenas it is prayed on nine consecutive days with a specific intention. There are multiple forms of this Novena and in 1876 Pope Pius IX granted indulgences, with the usual indulgence conditions, to all those who with a contrite heart pray the Novena at any time during the year based on a prayer approved by the Church.〔Ann Ball, 2003 Encyclopedia of Catholic Devotions and Practices ISBN 0-87973-910-X page 396〕 The Memorare to Saint Joseph is one prayer that can be used for the Novena: :Remember, O most pure spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, :my sweet protector St. Joseph :that no one ever had recourse to thy protection :or implored thy aid without obtaining relief. :Confiding therefore in thy goodness, :I come before thee, and humbly supplicate thee. :Oh, despise not my petitions, :foster-father of the Redeemer, :but graciously receive them. :Amen. ==See also== * Prayer to Saint Joseph * Novena 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Novena to Saint Joseph」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
