March 19, 2024: Feast of St. Joseph

Even though God asked so much of St. Joseph by taking Mary into his home as his wife, under highly unusual circumstances, God granted St. Joseph a great role in salvation history.

He was part of the fulfillment of the promises of God to bring a Savior into the world.

And St. Joseph had a close relationship with the Savior Jesus, caring for Him and His mother.

St. Joseph has the title Guardian of the Church, interceding for us who call upon Jesus by faith so that we can continue to be faithful to upholding the Church to fulfill its mission in teh world, just as Joseph raised Jesus.
