Be a Joseph

Go to your job during the day,  work with excellence.

Some Ideas:

• Be on time.
• Pray as you enter the day to invite God into the work.
• Work with intentional effort at every task.
• Have patience... with your task, with others, with yourself.
• Be present to those you interact with throughout the day
• No complaining.
• Offer any struggles up in prayer.
• Don't cut corners:)

• Elevate the environment for your meal.
• Consider preparing food that is typically reserved for special occasions.
• Cook for your family or together with them.
• Lead the prayer before and after the meal.
• Put away devices - be present to your family for conversation.

• Focus on the needs of others.
• Be present - phone free/TV free.
• Create a family night with games or stories
• Compliment your children and your wife.
• Consider doing something special for your wife.
• Pray together (decade of the rosary, Litany of St. Joseph).
• As the Father, Bless your children before they go to bed.

• Bring with you any intentions from your family.
• Enter into the silence as you drive to SLDM instead of having the radio on.
• Be open to what God might be calling you to through the evening.
• Allow God to speak to you in the prayers and silence of the night.
• Travel home with silence.
• Go straight to bed without engaging with your cell phone.

What if every man at SLDM joined together on March 19 AND prayed together at the Holy Hour at 10:00 pm?
