“Meet Your Spiritual father, St. Joseph” is the 2 ^nd talk of our advent retreat, presented by Julie Onderko, Tuesday Dec 10 ^th following the evening Mass, about 6:45 in the parish center.  Pope Saint John Paul II tells us the following about St. Joseph;
“[Christ’s] redemptive plan, which is founded on the mystery of the Incarnation…in which Joseph of Nazareth “shared” like no other human being except Mary, the Mother of the Incarnate Word.  He [Joseph] shared in it with her; he was involved in the same salvific event; he was the guardian of the same love, through the power of which the eternal Father “destined us to be his sons through Jesus Christ”” (Eph 1:5).
