​Saint Joseph - Patron of the Universal Church, fathers, and workers; Feast day: March 19

Saint Joseph holds a special place in Christian tradition as Jesus Christ's earthly father.

​Born in Bethlehem and living in Nazareth, he worked as a carpenter and was married to the Virgin Mary. His unwavering faith and dedication to God made him a model for fatherhood, virtue, and faith.
​
​His sainthood comes from his important role in the Holy Family, and Pope Pius IX even declared him the patron saint of the Universal Church in 1870. Christians celebrate his feast days on March 19 (St. Joseph's Day) and May 1 (St. Joseph the Worker).

People often pray to Saint Joseph for different reasons, hoping to receive various blessings:

  1. Protection: Since he protected the Holy Family, many ask Saint Joseph to watch over their own families and homes, keeping them safe.
  2. Fatherhood and family life: As an exemplary father, he offers guidance and support to other fathers and families in their everyday lives.
  3. Workers: As the patron saint of workers, praying to Saint Joseph can bring support to those in the workforce, especially manual laborers.
  4. The Universal Church: Being the patron saint of the Universal Church, Saint Joseph is asked to intercede for the church and its members.
  5. The dying: Known as the patron of a happy death, people pray to Saint Joseph for comfort and spiritual support when facing death or grieving a loved one.
