The Way of St. Joseph . . . Mission

  1. To displace the current quick fix “magic of burying a statue” with the age old “miracle of asking and believing”.
  2. To offer complete picture . . . Statue, Intro, The Way, All-Purpose Petition, and About Saints.
  3. Recognize . . . home sellers must also price right.
  4. Size . . . easy to place, carry, or hold.
  5. To provide everyone with the opportunity to personally experience the power of St. Joseph. The sad truth is that simply because of the overemphasis on burying techniques, many good people are continuing to lose out on the tremendous benefits which St. Joseph never fails to provide.
  6. For, very simply, sale or no sale . . . asking St. Joseph inspires hope, hope brings about believing, and believing leads to faith and lives are changed!

The Way of St. Joseph

Over the years, thousands have successfully followed the age-old practice of burying a statue of St. Joseph with the hope of selling or buying real estate . . . The Authentic Way:

  1. Ask . . . St. Joseph to help you sell you home and then . . .
  2. Believe . . . in St. Joseph to intercede to God, for the granting of your request, and then . . .
  3. Trust . . . bury or place St. Joseph’s statue on the property, as an outward sign of your belief and trust in his power, and then . . .
  4. Thank . . . St. Joseph for having responded to your call . . . before, during, and after the granting of your favor, and then . . .
  5. Move . . . St. Joseph’s statue to a place of honor, and finally . . .
  6. Share . . . your experiences with others . . . how St. Joseph has helped you personally.
A Petition to St. Joseph

Dear St. Joseph, head of the most perfect household, foster father of Jesus and guardian of His mother Mary, I confidentially place myself and all my concerns under your care and protection. I ask that, through your powerful intercession with God, you obtain for me all the help and graces that I need for my spiritual and temporal welfare and in particular, the special favor I now ask (here mention or think of your home sale or any other petition, especially family needs (*)).

Good St. Joseph, I know with confidence that your prayers on my behalf will be heard by God, and if it is His Will, it will be done.

Thank you St. Joseph, for having responded to my call.

Amen

(*) St. Joseph knows families... He brings family peace and love to each member... Go to him!

Prayer to St. Joseph

Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt, before the throne of God, I place I you all my interests and desires. Oh St Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord, so that having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. Oh St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine Head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for me.
Amen

Say for nine days for anything you desire. It has never been known to fail

Burial Instructions for St. Joseph

The truth of the matter is, specifications mean little, if anything, when choosing a place for St. Joseph. What does mean everything is that the seller asks St. Joseph for his help, believes that he will intercede, and trusts him. All is very simply set forth in The Way of St. Joseph.

For this practice to be fully effective, however.....sellers must of course first do such practical, yet all important chores, as completing all necessary fix-up, properly staging the home and finally, adjusting the price so as to reflect true market value. Then....just watch St. Joseph make it happen!

Some common burial positions are:
upside down
In the rear yard
3’ from the rear of the house
Facing the house
Simply place on the property
Right side up
In the front yard
Exactly 12” deep
Facing away from the house
When sold, remove, etc.
