PROPERS FOR SUNDAY�9:30 a.m. Mass�

Introit�When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will rescue him and honor him; with long life will I satisfy him. He who abides in the shelter of the Most High, shall remain under the protection of the God of Heaven.�Gradual�To his Angels he has given a commandment concerning you, to keep you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.�Tract�He who abides in the shelter of the Most High, shall remain under the protection of the Lord of Heaven. He shall say to the Lord: “You are my protector and my refuge;” my God, in whom I trust. For he has set me free from the snare of the fowler, and from cutting words. He will conceal you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge. His faithfulness will shield you as with a buckler, you will not suffer the terrors of the night: You shall fear neither the arrow that flies by day, nor the conspiracy that stalks in the darkness, nor destruction, nor the demon of noonday. A thousand will fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right, but you shall remain unharmed. For to his Angels he has given a commandment concerning you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. On the asp and the basilisk you will tread and trample the lion and the dragon. Because he has put his hope in me I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. He shall call out to me, and I shall answer him: I am with him in tribulation. I will rescue him and honor him; with long days will I satisfy him; and I shall let him see my saving power.�Offertory�The Lord will overshadow you with his pinions, and you will find refuge under his wings. His faithfulness will encompass you with a shield.�Communion�He will overshadow you with his pinions, and you will find refuge under his wings. His faithfulness will encompass you with a shield.�

NOVENA TO ST. JOSEPH (March 11�19)� Devotion to the foster father of our Savior and patron of the Universal Church is a praiseworthy tradition to cultivate in your family.�

O GLORIOUS descendant of the kings of Juda! Inheritor of the virtues of all the patriarchs! Just and happy St. Joseph! Listen to our prayers.�

Thou art our glorious protector, and shalt ever be, after Jesus and Mary, the object of our most profound veneration and tender confidence. Thou art a hidden saint, though one of the greatest of saints, and art peculiarly the patron of interior souls.�

In union with all those who have ever been most devoted to thee, we now dedicate ourselves to thy service, beseeching thee, for the sake of Jesus Christ, Who vouchsafed to love and obey thee as a Son, to become a father to us, and to obtain for us the filial respect, confidence, and love of children toward thee. O powerful advocate of all Christians! whose intercession, as St. Teresa assures us, has never been found to fail, deign to intercede for us now and to implore for us the particular intentions of the novena. (Specify)�

Present us, O great saint, to the adorable Trinity with Whom thou hadst so glorious and so intimate a correspondence. Obtain that we may never efface by sin the sacred image according to the likeness of which we were created. Beg for us that our divine Redeemer may enkindle in our hearts, and in all hearts, the fire of His love, and infuse therein the virtues of His adorable infancy�His purity, simplicity, obedience, and humility. Obtain for us likewise a lively devotion to thy Virgin spouse, and protect us so powerfully in life and in death that we may have the happiness of dying, as thou didst, in the friendship of Our Creator, and under the immediate protection of the Mother of God.�

Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, spare us O Lord.�Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, graciously hear us, O Lord.�Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.�V. He made him the lord of his household. R. And prince over all his possessions.�O God, Who in Thy ineffable providence didst vouchsafe to choose Blessed Joseph to be the spouse of Thy most holy Mother; grant, we beseech Thee, that we may have him for our intercessor in heaven, whom we venerate as our protector on earth: Who livest and reignest world without end. Amen.�

Lord have mercy,�Christ, have mercy,�Lord, have mercy, Christ hear us,�Christ, graciously hear us.�God, the Father of Heaven.*�God the Son Redeemer of the world,�God, the Holy Ghost,�Holy Trinity, one God,�Holy Mary, **�St. Joseph, �Renowned offspring of David�Light of Patriarchs,�Spouse of the Mother of God,�Chaste guardian of the Virgin,�Foster father of the Son of God,�Diligent protector of Christ,�Head of the Holy Family,�Joseph most just,�

Joseph most chaste,�Joseph most prudent,�Joseph most strong,�Joseph most obedient,�Joseph most faithful,�Mirror of patience,�Lover of poverty,�Model of artisans,�Glory of home life,�Guardian of virgins,�Pillar of families,�Solace of the wretched,�Hope of the sick,�Patron of the dying,�Terror of demons,�Protector of Holy Church,�* Have mercy on us. ** Pray for us.�
