Who, save the Blessed Mother herself, ever enjoyed so close and prolonged an intimacy with Jesus as did Joseph? Who, then, can have equalled him in love? Holy souls have dwelt on the thought that for many long miles during the flight into Egypt Joseph carried Him in his arms, partly to shield Him from the wintry blast in the folds of his cloak, and partly
– especially during the early part of the journey –
to conceal Him; and all that time he felt the beatings of the Sacred Heart against his own, and learned secrets which had never been confided even to the blessed spirits in Heaven.

Saint Joseph
March 19
Join us for a very special High Mass offered for your intentions here at the Shrine. As we watch Our Lord, humbly, patiently, and expectantly for the preservation of our sacred liturgy, we will entrust our prayers and petitions to Saint Joseph, the patron of the universal Church and of the Fraternity’s North American Province. Our Novena of Masses begins on Saint Joseph’s feast day.
Attend in person
Join us at the Shrine for Masses at 7am, 12:10, and 7pm. The High Mass is at 7pm.
We will feature a Saint Joseph’s altar again this year. For details, contact the parish office.

Spend your life in honoring Saint Joseph, and your love and homage will never equal the love and homage paid to him by Mary; it will approach never so distantly to the obedience, the love, the homage paid to him for thirty years on earth by the Son of God. But in proportion as your heart grows towards him in the reverence and unbounded confidence of a son will you trace in your soul a more faithful copy of the Incarnate Word.
—Letter on Devotion to Saint Joseph, by Herbert, Bishop of Salford, 1877
