NOVENA TO ST. JOSEPH, LAST DAY
SHORT REFLECTION:ST. JOSEPH, A LEADER PER EXCELLENCE
St. Joseph happens to be the one-chosen shadow of God upon earth, the representative of God the Father, for he was called the Father of Jesus. Thus, he becomes a leader by this special privilege granted onto him.
Saint Joseph led by example. None of his words are written in Scripture, but we can clearly see by his actions that he was a just, loving and faithful man. We often think that we primarily influence others by what we say, when so often we are watched for our actions. Every recorded decision and action made by this great saint is the standard for men to follow today.

We place our country Nigeria in the hands of st. Joseph for his intercession; at this crucial time when things appear to be very difficult for the citizens.
We pray you O St. Joseph, to obtain for us, good governance, by directing the hearts and minds of our leaders towards the common good. Amen.
