Excerpt from Your Own St. Joseph Fra Angelico, Lu1n_1, \ Raphael and many other artists depict St: Joseph as a noble, gracious man, in the full strength of manhood. Such we know he must have been to endure the labors and hardship which Providence destined him to endure for Mary and the Divine Child. The false conception that St. Joseph was already iri his declining years at the time of his Espousals has been traced back to apocryphal sources.

Saint Joseph is a powerful intercessor with God because he is both the father of Jesus and the spouse of the Madonna. As St Teresa of Avila said, Jesus does not deny anything to those who pray to St Joseph, because as on earth he was subjected to him because he was his father, so even in Heaven he refuses nothing to what Saint Joseph asks of him. Let us imitate St. Theresa of Avila, and as we ask for intercession with the God of St. Joseph, let us pray with belief and devotion. In this book you will find some original prayers to St. Joseph, which were composed by author.

The acclaimed New Orleans photographer captures the celebration of St. Joseph’s Day through images and traditional Sicilian recipes. According to legend, Saint Joseph sent rain to save the people of Sicily from drought during the Middle Ages. To thank their patron saint, Sicilians made offerings of their finest crops to feed the poor—a display of food and faith that continues today. This beautiful custom, La Tavola di San Giuseppe, came to America as immigrants formed what is still the largest Sicilian population in the United States in New Orleans, Louisiana. In 120 color photographs, Kerri McCaffety shows a sparkling array of Saint Joseph altars where flowers, candles, and photographs of lost loved ones crowd around statues of saints on three-tiered shrines piled with biscotti, pane, cuccidati, frittate, and pignolatti. In addition to describing the spiritual symbolism of these foods, McCafferty includes recipes for the most important dishes, including a cannoli recipe from Emeril Lagasse. Nineteen recipes contributed by local Saint Joseph aficionados—from a Sicilian grandmother to New Orleans’ most famous chef—include traditional Italian cookies and sweets, baked fish, and bread believed to have the power to calm a storm.

Let St. Joseph Teach You How to Love Jesus as He Did St. Joseph was chosen by God to care for and protect the Savior of the world and His mother-to be head of the Holy Family. Yet Scripture does not record a single word this great saint spoke; we must take our lessons of his life from his actions. In this compilation of stories and poems about our Savior's foster-father, Catholic children of all ages are encouraged to imitate the virtues the life of St. Joseph reveal to us in his loving dedication to Jesus and Mary. Through stories by such renowned authors as Sr. Margaret Patrice, Wilfrid Sheed, Catherine Beebe, Sr. Mary Charitas, and Mary Mannix and poems by Rev. Edward F. Garesche, Sister M. Imelda Wallace, Rev. Gerald M. C. Fitzgerald, and Rev. Frederick Faber, children are sure to acquire a greater understanding of-and devotion to-the earthly father of Jesus. The discussion questions as well as the reflections on the virtues of St. Joseph lead children to apply the lessons of this saint's life to their own. The concluding section of this book contains prayers to St. Joseph, a short litany for children, prayers for the Nine First Wednesdays of St. Joseph, and an Act of Consecration to St. Joseph. Let us enthusiastically join St. Teresa of Avila who declared: "I wish I could persuade everyone to be devoted to this glorious saint "
