News and Events: St. Joseph

This coming Sunday, March 19th, is the feast of St. Joseph, Husband of Mary.  Although our community is called the Sisters of St. Joseph the Worker and our primary feast is May 1st, we celebrate March 19th also.  St. Joseph only has two feast days in the Church calendar so we celebrate both of them.

Most people associate St. Joseph with selling houses but he is much more then that.  If that is all you know about St. Joseph, I would suggest that you begin to read about him.  He is the patron saint for the dying but also the patron saint of the Universal Church, families, fathers, travelers, craftsman, working people, expectant mothers and immigrants.  He is a quiet saint who works in the background.

Enjoy your week and I hope the feast of St. Joseph, Husband of Mary, is a special day for your family.
