This past November, Cardinal Sean O’Malley presented 150 individuals, both lay and religious, with the prestigious Cheverus Award medal at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross. One of those recipients is a familiar face to those who frequent St. Joseph the Worker Shrine at 37 Lee St. – Br. Richard Cote, OMI.

This week, to mark the 150th anniversary of St. Joseph being declared the patron of the Universal Church, the Holy Father called for a year dedicated to St. Joseph. Of course, we know that the Holy Father, like Pope John XXIII, has long had a great devotion to St. Joseph. When Pope Francis became a bishop, he included the lilies of St. Joseph in his coat of arms. Pope John XXIII added the name of St. Joseph to the Roman Canon, and Pope Francis has now extended the inclusion of the prayer to St. Joseph to all the canons of the Mass.
