Novena to St. Joseph

We invite you to join in saying a Novena to St. Joseph. St. Joseph is patron of the Universal Church, unborn children, fathers, workers, travelers, immigrants, expectant parents, families, and a happy death. 

The novena will begin this Sunday, March 12 and end on Monday, March 20, when St. Joseph’s feast day is celebrated this year. We will pray it together at the start of our 5 PM parish Zoom events (Sunday faith sharing, rosaries on Monday and Wednesday, and Friday Vespers). Don’t worry if you can’t join in every night. The materials are available online here if you want to pray one or more days on your own.
