Prayer to St. Joseph said during Mass: Glorious
Patriarch Saint Joseph, whose power makes the impossible possible, come
to my aid in these times of anguish and difficulty. Take under your
protection the serious and troubling situations that I commend to you,
that they may have a happy outcome (here state your request) My beloved
father, all my trust is in you. Let it not be said that I invoked you in
vain, and since you can do everything with Jesus and Mary, show me that
your goodness is as great as a power. Amen.

FROM THE HOLY SEE
Pope’s Prayer Intention for July: Universal intention ‐ Social friendship. We pray that, in social, economic and political situations of conflict, we may be courageous and passionate architects of dialogue and friendship.
Pope establishes World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly: “I am with you always” (cf. Mt 28:20). Pope Francis has decided to institute a Church-wide celebration of a World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly. The theme’s purpose is to convey the closeness of God and the Church to the elderly and also to emphasize the intergenerational closeness between the young and the elderly. Starting this year, the day will be held on the fourth Sunday of July (July 25, 2021), close to the liturgical memorial of Saints Joachim and Anne, the grandparents of Jesus.
