Novena in preparation for the Feast of St. Joseph
Last year in December Pope Francis announced a Year of St. Joseph, in honour of the 150th anniversary of the saint’s proclamation as patron of the Universal Church.
The Church observes the passage of time through the liturgical calendar – which includes feasts such as Easter and Christmas, Lent and Advent. IN ADDITION, however, popes can set aside time for the Church to reflect more deeply on a specific aspect of Catholic teaching or belief.
WHY A YEAR OF SAINT JOSEPH?
