Summer with the Saints: St Joseph

Join Bridgett and Janet in their discussion of one of their favorite saints: St Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. Can you even imagine parenting the Son of God? Resources:Catechism of the Catholic Church (437, 497, 532, 1014, 1846, and 2177)St. John Henry Newman:  “When, for our sakes, the Son came on earth and took our flesh, yet He would not live without the sympathy of others. For thirty years He lived with Mary and Joseph and thus formed a shadow of the Heavenly Trinity on earth. O the perfection of {310} that sympathy which existed between the three! Not a look of one, but the other two understood, as expressed, better than if expressed in a thousand words—nay more than understood, accepted, echoed, corroborated. It was like three instruments absolutely in tune which all vibrate when one vibrates, and vibrate either one and the same note, or in perfect harmony.”Hallow App (Consecration to St. Joseph, with Sr. Miriam James Heidland)Baby Steps:Pray the Litany of Saint Joseph Email us: [email protected] episodes: https://hearingwiththeheart.buzzsprout.comChurch of the Ascension: www.ascensionvb.org/podcastSend us Fan MailThanks for joining us.
