Wear a powerful sacramental devoted to St. Joseph and the virtue of purity with our exclusive St. Joseph Cord.

Our Cord of St. Joseph is a white cotton cord with seven knots, each representing one of the seven joys and sorrows of St. Joseph. Traditionally blessed by a priest and worn around the waist beneath clothing, it serves as a quiet yet profound sign of devotion.

Originating in 17th-century Antwerp, Belgium, it received formal approval in 1859 from the Sacred Congregation of Rites and Pope Pius IX.

Cut the cord to your personal fit, have it blessed by a priest and wear it to seek St. Josephs special protection, purity of soul, grace to live chastely, final perseverance, and assistance at the hour of death.

As part of your devotion, offer 7 Glory Be prayers daily to honor St. Joseph, Chaste Spouse of the Blessed Virgin, and entrust your life to his faithful guardianship.

+ Includes a St. Joseph prayer card with instructions and prayers.
