To St. Joseph in sudden need – Triduum in one day – beg for the immediate assistance.
The following prayers can be said three times during the day: in the morning, in the middle of the day and in the evening. If this is a very urgent matter, for example a prayer for the conversion of a dangerously ill person, the prayer can be said in three consecutive hours.
