On December 8, the Holy Father, Pope Francis inaugurated a “Year of St. Joseph” in order to promote devotion to this Guardian of the Redeemer. He asked the faithful to reflect on the saint’s role in salvation history and to confidently turn to him in need, especially during the pandemic. Our parish instituted a weekly votive lamp to burn continually before his image in both churches. The bulletin and website offered brief weekly reflections on Saint Joseph.
