A gorgeous & rare Green Enamel vintage Italian St. Joseph medal! Blank surface on the reverse is perfect for engraving a monogram, commemorative date, or warm sentiment. Saint Joseph is usually depicted, like this, holding a blooming lily flower stem - an emblem of His Purity. He looks down on the infant Jesus, in loving adoration. Surrounded in GORGEOUS Olive Green Enamel, Saint Joseph is Patron Saint for all the Fathers, Carpenters, Workers & Craftsmen among us. Made in Italy with authentic ITALY Hallmark on bottom reverse.

Glorious Saint Joseph, you are the pattern of all who work. Obtain for me, please, the grace to work conscientiously and to put devotion to duty before my selfish inclinations. Help me to labor in thankfulness and joy, for it is an honor to employ and to develop by my labor the gifts I have received from almighty God. Grant that I may work in orderliness, peace, moderation and patience without shrinking from weariness and difficulties. I offer my fatigue and perplexities as reparation for sin. I shall work, above all, with a pure intention and with detachment from self, having always before my eyes the hour of death and the accounting which I must then render of time ill-spent, of talents unemployed, of good undone, and of empty pride in success, which is so fatal to the work of God. For Jesus through Mary, all in imitation of you, good Saint Joseph. This shall be my motto in life and in death. Amen.
