To Saint Joseph, the Silent Saint, we ask you to intercede for us today

Joseph of Nazareth, the father of Jesus and the husband of Mary, the man who in life knew how to instill in his son:

Love for humanity,
the necessity of the work sacrificed to obtain the desires and
the deep conviction that there was no greater treasure on earth than honesty.

For these and many reasons Joseph was great, because he knew that his duty was above his joy, and then God, seeing his pure soul, gave him the grace to welcome his son as his own.

Joseph, Holy Father and Protector of Christ

José came from a humble family, where the livelihood was working as a carpenter craftsman.

Work that later he would teach his son and that would be very virtuous in his oratory, because Jesus of Nazareth through his words sought to shape society and lead them on a better path, leaving in them the trace of mercy.
