Talk:Prayer to Saint Joseph

Which is which? It is unclear which one was found in 50AD!

This page is appallingly bad. i'm voting it be deleted. InfernoXV (talk) 18:20, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

This article lacks detail; however, it is cited by the Litany article. Examples of more complete articles about litanies include Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus, Sacred Heart, and Precious Blood. I don't believe this article should be deleted, but it needs improvement. --Jason M. Smith (talk) 02:50, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Copy to Wikisource still required?
To transwiki this to WikiSource it will require more information -- billinghurst (talk) 15:37, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) In which work was the litany was published?
 * 2) if in Latin, when was it translated, by whom, and is the translation out of copyright?
 * for users who still can do that, there would be the Litany of St. Joseph in the version sanctioned by the Pope St. Pius X. The related text can be hopefully copied on Wikisource when it will be made available by their legittimate owners, so as to be highly confident to have it released in the public domain. The traditional Novena needs probably to be verified by a bishop of the Roman Catholic Church, before being believed to be suitable for publication.

Triduum of Saint Joseph and Marian month of October
Directly from the encyclical Quamquam pluries were sourced the following informations related to the liturgical use of the prayer. The previous version of the WP article mentioned the Novena of St Joseph and the previous three points have been capitalized.
 * 1) during the Marian month of October it is mandatory.
 * 2) each prayer is associated with an indulgency.
 * 3) the prayer is recommended, not mandatory for the Triduum of St Joseph, in the three days preceding his festivity fixed on March 19.

More importantly, the official Latin version stated for a perpetual use of the prayer. It is not so frequent and just remembered for the Holy mass formulated by the Pope St Pius V. It has been added even if the English translation renders less rigorously as follows: "this custom should be repeated every year."Philosopher81sp (talk) 17:52, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
