Today is the feast day of St. Joseph the Worker. St. Joseph is the patron of many things, including the universal Church, fathers, the dying and social justice. A man of quiet strength and unwavering duty, St. Joseph shows us that work, done with love, integrity, and humility, is a path to holiness.⁠
