Prayer of Petition to Saint Joachim

O Great patriarch Saintt Joachim,
by that singular privilege
by which thou wast chosen by Divine Providence
to present to the world that Immaculate Queen
in whom all nations should be blessed,
and who should bear in her virginal bosom
the salvation of the human race;
we thy devout clients rejoice with thee
over this beautiful privilege,
and we implore thy special protection
for ourselves and our families.
Do not allow, O dear Saint,
the devil or sin to have any place in our souls,
nor the perverse maxims of the world to seduce us,
nor permit us to live unmindful of that eternity
for which we have been created.
Obtain for us from God a firm faith,
unshaken by the impieties and errors
which are scattered abroad by sects
hostile to the Church and to the Apostolic See,
a sincere and constant affection for the Vicar of Jesus Christ,
the True Valid Roman Pontiff,
a generous and indomitable courage
in refuting the calumnies uttered against everything
that is most sacred and revered in our holy religion.
Thou who art powerful through the love which thy holy daughter, Mary,
bears thee, help on the cause of the Church,
obtain for her the long-desired triumph,
scatter the powers of darkness,
humble their pride, and cause the light of truth
and of the Faith to outshine every falsehood.
Grant us, above everything,
a tender and filial devotion to most holy Mary,
thy dear daughter and our Mother,
so that daily honouring her with devout homage
we may deserve to be counted by her
among the happy company of her children,
and after the miseries of this exile
to be brought by her to Paradise,
there to praise the mercies of God for ever.

Amen.

Say 2 Our Father...

Say 2 Hail Mary...

Say 2 Glory Be...

Prayer To Saint Joachim for Protection

O Great and glorious patriarch St Joachim,
how I rejoice to think that you were chosen
from among all the Saints
to co-operate in the Divine mysteries,
and enrich the world by bestowing on it
the great Mother of God, most holy Mary!
By this singular privilege
you have become so powerful with the Mother and the Son
as to obtain whatever graces may be necessary for us.
With great confidence, then,
I have recourse to your most powerful protection,
and I commend to you all the wants of my family,
both spiritual and temporal, as well as my own;
and especially I appeal to you
for the particular grace which I desire
and expect from your Paternal intercession.
And since you were a perfect model of the interior life,
obtain for me interior recollection
and a distaste for the fleeting goods of this earth,
with a lively and persevering love of Jesus and Mary.
Obtain for me, too, devotion
and sincere obedience to Holy Church,
and to the True Supreme Pontiff who governs her,
so that I may live and die in Faith,
Hope, and perfect Charity,
invoking the most holy names of Jesus and Mary,
and may save my soul.

Amen.

Say 2 Our Father...

Say 2 Hail Mary...

Say 2 Glory Be...

A Father's Prayer to Saint Joachim

Holy patrons of my children, Saint Joachim,
take an interest in me their father;
pray for me that through your intercession
I may receive the grace that I may by word and example
exercise a salutary influence over my children,
and that they, by imitating your virtues,
may grow up good members of the Church
and be received one day into your happy society.

Amen.

A Prayer of a Father to the Guardian Angels of his Children

O holy guardian angels,
ye heavenly friends of my children,
full of confidence I turn to you.
Those whom the Lord has entrusted to me
He has also entrusted to your love and care.
Obtain for me by your intercession,
that animated with the same sentiment
which animates you towards my children,
I may do all things to bring them up for God and heaven.
O may I be such a father to them
that I may be not unworthy of your love and friendship.
Obtain this for me by your powerful intercession.

Amen.

A Prayer to Preserve the Children from Mortal Sin

O God, how many and how great are the temptations to sin
for my children in this world!
And it is not in my power to lead them safely through them.
You must assist and protect,
You must rescue and lead to victory.
Come then to my aid, O Lord,
in the power of Your grace,
that the monster of mortal sin may not approach my children.
You know, O Lord, how much I love my children;
but I would rather that You should take them from me by death
than that by sin they should suffer the death of their souls
and become an object of abomination and wrath to You.
Therefore I beseech You, Father of my children,
haste to take them out of this life
rather than that they should suffer this misfortune,
so that by losing them during this short life
I may find them again in Your house
and possess them forever with You.
Hear me, O Lord, hear me;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Say 1 Hail Mary...

A Prayer for Purity in Children

O most holy God, who lovest purity and innocence,
grant my children the precious gift of purity.
Alas, if the vice of impurity should soil my children,
how unhappy would they be for time and eternity.
Lord, protect them;
keep far from them this terrible misfortune!
Without Your special grace they cannot preserve holy purity.
O Lord, grant them this grace!
May their hearts be as a sanctuary
undefiled by any impure thoughts and sentiments;
may their eyes be modest,
their ears and mouth closed to any impropriety
in word or conversation;
fill them with horror for everything contrary to purity,
and let them, unblemished in body and soul,
continue to be temples consecrated to the Holy Ghost.

O Lord, lover of pure souls,
let my children be numbered among Your beloved ones;
let that blessing which in time and eternity
accompanies holy purity come to my children.

Immaculate Mother, thou model and intercessor of pure souls;
St. Joseph, St. Aloysius, and all holy youths,
virgins, and saintly children, help me by your intercession.

Amen.

A Father's Prayer for Blessings on his Work

O God, all that I may do for the proper education of my children
will not bear fruit without the blessing of Your grace.
Although I may "plant and water,"
the "increase" will be wanting if You do not "give" it.
"Except the Lord build the house," says the Psalmist,
"they labor in vain who build it.
Except the Lord keep the city he watches in vain that keep it."
Therefore I beseech You, O Lord,
give "the increase" to all that I do for my children
by teaching, admonition, warning,
punishment, vigilance and direction;
assist me to "keep" them from all evil of body and soul;
assist me to " build" that the "house" of virtue
and perfection will have in them a firm foundation.
Accompany my words and works
with Your grace that they may conduce
to the welfare of my children, through Jesus Christ.

Amen.

Saint Joachim, spouse of Ann, Father of the Blessed Virgin,
aid thy clients here on the way to salvation.

(Indulgence of 300 days--Pius X, 1906)
