Every month of the year is dedicated to an aspect of our faith worthy of pondering.
The month of MARCH highlights Saint Joseph.
Saint Joseph is a most wonderful Saint, seen among the Saints as second only to the Blessed Virgin Mary. He was chosen by God the Father to be the father of His Son Jesus on earth, conferring on Saint Joseph a profound dignity. He is known in the scriptures as the just man and we can look to him as a model of all the virtues, chiefly: humility, purity, obedience, and faithfulness. He is the patron of the Universal Church, the family, workers, a happy death, and much more.
On earth God placed him at the head of the Holy Family and now in heaven, he is the patron and protector of God's earthly family, the Church. He is a powerful intercessor for us.
In this month of Saint Joseph, it is a great time to get to know this man. He will delight and surprise all those who take the time to discover and get to know him. One great way to begin, is to pray the Litany of Saint Joseph and meditate on the titles attributed to him - he is truly an AMAZING man of God!
