St. Joseph Cameo Religious Locket Shrine Necklace

Oh, St Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong,
so prompt before the throne of God,
I place in you all my interest 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, out Lord.
So that, having engages 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 arm;
I dare not approach while he resposes near your heart.
Press Him in my name and kiss His find 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.

St. Joseph is also patron of the universal Church, fathers, carpenters, and social justice.


A man of God that he is the role model for all fathers that obeying God's word he became a very important part of Our Lord's life as a father on earth.

What a privilege must be for St. Joseph to take the role of Our Lord Jesus Christ and raise Him as His own

With this necklace I wanted to make honor to St. Joseph as the role of father to Our Lord and just love this vintage cameo depicting him with Child Jesus

I wanted to make it to look and feel like an older antique piece using antiqued trade beads
