THE YEAR OF ST. JOSEPHDec 8, 2020 - Dec 8, 2021
Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, has announced and declared a “Year of St. Joseph,” which began December 8, 2020, on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This is in honor of the 150th Anniversary of Pope Pius IX’s decree, Quemadmodum Deus, naming Saint Joseph, husband of the Blessed Virgin Mary and foster-father of Jesus, as the Patron of the Universal Church. We unite with our Holy Father, Pope Francis, in observing this year in the Diocese of Corpus Christi from December 8, 2020, to December 8, 2021.
As St. Joseph was entrusted with the care and protection of Jesus and Mary, in this Year of St. Joseph, we seek his intercession for the protection and care of all our families and the Church. In this vital time where the world faces so much upheaval and pain, and particularly as it confronts the uncertainty and pain of the Covid-19 virus epidemic, I invite you and all the faithful of our diocese to renew our devotion to Saint Joseph during this commemorative year and to seek his fatherly intercession to protect the Church from all evils, just as he protected the Holy Family from harm.
May St. Joseph, guardian of the Word Incarnate, be our guardian and intercessor. May we feel filled with confidence that his prayers on our behalf will be graciously heard before the throne of God.
PRAYER TO ST. JOSEPH
Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed her trust; with you Christ became man. Blessed Joseph, to us too, show yourself a father and guide us in the path of life. Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage, and defend us from every evil. Amen. -

A Prayer for the World Meeting of FamiliesPhiladelphia 2015
God and Father of us all, in Jesus, your Son and our Savior,
you have made us your sons and daughters in the family of the Church.
May your grace and love help our families in every part of the world
be united to one another in fidelity to the Gospel.
May the example of the Holy Family, with the aid of your Holy Spirit
guide all families, especially those most troubled,
to be homes of communion and prayer
and to always seek your truth and live in your love.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
Pray for us! -
