St. Cupertino, pray for me. <\/p>\n
O Great St. Joseph of Cupertino who while on earth did obtain from God the grace to be asked at your examination only the questions you knew, obtain for me a like favour in the examinations for which I am now preparing. In return I promise to make you known and cause you to be invoked. Through Christ our Lord. <\/p>\n
St. Joseph of Cupertino, Pray for us. Amen. <\/p>\n
FIRST DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you were an unwanted child and were thought worthless even by your own mother. Intercede for all unwanted children that they may come to know they were born out of God\u2019s love for them. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
SECOND DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you were an angry, frustrated child. We pray for all who struggle to express themselves, and that you help us overcome sins of anger. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
THIRD DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you experienced no love in your family and were considered of little account by all who knew you. We pray for all who have experienced the same. May we learn to treat everyone as having the worth they have in God\u2019s eyes. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
FOURTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you suffered because you found it difficult to learn. We pray for all those who struggle at school. May they take comfort from the fact that although learning wasn\u2019t easy for you, this didn\u2019t stop you from becoming a saint. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
FIFTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you did the best with the intelligence you did have and put the rest in God\u2019s hands. That way you passed all your exams and became a priest. We pray for all those struggling with exams. May we also do our best in everything and trust in God to guide our lives. We pray especially for (mention your request. Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
SIXTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, even the thought or mention of anything holy made you levitate in ecstasy. Grant us something of the understanding and reverence for God and his saints that you had. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
SEVENTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, only when your superior ordered you to, were you able to come back down to earth. May we too have a love for and obedience to the teachings of the Church. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
EIGHTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, you were unjustly suspected, confined to your room and neglected by those charged with looking after you. You accepted all this with humility. We pray for all those unjustly imprisoned, and that we too may have the humility to accept injustice for the love of Christ. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
NINTH DAY:<\/strong>
\nDear St Joseph, because you could levitate you are the patron of travellers, especially air travellers. We pray for all those travelling that they may safely reach their destinations. We pray especially for (mention your request). Amen.<\/p>\nOur Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.<\/p>\n
*Cupertino you\u2019re the best, please help me pass this test! Amen! Hallelujah! <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
