Saint Joseph is the foster father of Jesus and the faithful spouse of the Virgin Mary. A man of humility and strength, his virtue shines in quiet obedience to the will of God.

When Joseph learns Mary is with child, still unaware she bears the Son of God, Joseph resolves to spare her shame and possible death, revealing a masculine heart rooted in compassion.

Entrusted with Mother and Child, he embraces his vocation with courageous love. He honors Mary’s virginity and raises Jesus so that God's plan for salvation may be fulfilled.

In the face of danger, Joseph leads his family away from King Herod and into Egypt, protecting them with bravery and trust in God.

A humble carpenter, he sanctifies ordinary work through diligence and paternal love as he teaches child Jesus his craft.

St. Joseph stands as the model of fatherhood—self-denying, steadfast, and filled with Christ-like love.
