Novena to St. Joseph & Holy Hour

Our parish monthly Eucharistic Holy Hour will include a

Novena to St. Joseph on Tuesday,  October 1st at

6 PM. Our parish patron, St. Joseph, is the patron of the

Universal Church. Having died in the "arms of Jesus and

Mary" according to Catholic tradition, he is considered the

model of the pious believer who receives grace at the

moment of death, in other words, the patron of a happy

death. St. Joseph is also the patron saint of families,

fathers, workers and those seeking employment, against

doubt & hesitation, cemetery workers, among many

other causes.

All are invited to join us in this monthly Novena

to St. Joseph and Holy Hour on October 1st.

remembers exactly how it

happened, the

unthinkable

becomes tolerable. 

And then acceptable.
