Year of Saint Joseph
Catholics around the world rejoice over the Holy Father's
proclamation of the Holy Year of St. Joseph, which began on
December 8, 2020 and ends December 8, 2021. The Archdiocese of
Philadelphia will begin its official observance of this holy year
after the New Year. Many groups are already beginning to plan their
initiatives. The entire Archdiocese of Philadelphia is encouraged
to spend this year growing closer to St. Joseph, honoring him,
imitating his virtues and asking for his intercession. May this be
a year of great grace for all of us as we grow closer to our
spiritual father!

nations to adore the Lord.
Paul teaches the Ephesians that they, and all Gentiles, are
members of the same body of
Christ. Matthew writes of the magi from afar being drawn to the
