ST. JOSEPH: Patron of Canada

A blessed Feast Day to all - especially to all Canadians, whose patron St. Joseph is. The choice of St. Joseph as Canada's patron saint evolved from a strong devotion of French-Canadians to the foster-father of Jesus. Brother Andre's holiness and apostolate was focused on devotion to Joseph. 


There is a very good interview on Vatican Radio by Fr. Moses Hamungole which focuses on St. Joseph as a role model for fathers.

We believe in a good argument. That means NO ad hominem attacks. This also includes Pope Francis. Further, referring to him by any other name, may or may not indicate a schismatic attitude, and given the confusion in the Church your comment will NOT be published. Comments are those of the commentators and not those of this blog. You may use a pseudonym... we do... Behave like a guest in our living room and you will be fine.
