I’ve looked around a bit, but can’t seem to find a patron saint(s) of husbands, wives, married couples, or fathers, or perhaps even slightly difficult family life. Prayers for intercession would be awesome, too! Thanks! 🙂
 
Hi Holly,
I’ve always thought of St Joseph as the patron saint of husbands/fathers - he always reminds me of my husband :o).
 
I always was told that St. Joseph was the patron saint of Fathers.

Prayers for you in a difficult time.
 
I would think Sts. Joseph and Mary would be happy to hear your requests for intercession. St. Thomas More is the patron saint of adoptive parents but I’m not sure that applies here.

gotta be St. Joseph for husbands and fathers
St. Rita is traditionally the patron for women in troubled marriages by all accounts her DH was a pip
 
Not declared saints yet but St. Therese’s parents will probably get the patrons of married couples title someday I’d imagine.
