On Thursday 19 March, we will celebrate the 1st class feast day of Saint Joseph, Spouse of Our Lady. This is a most important feast of the Church and for Holy Family Parish. Let us give thanks to Saint Joseph for all he has provided us through his powerful intercession. High Mass will be celebrated at 7:30 pm on this day (note that the regular 9:00 am Mass is cancelled).

Blessed Joseph, husband of Mary, be with us this day. You protected and cherished the Virgin. Loving the Child Jesus as your son, you rescued Him from danger of death. Defend the Church, the household of God, purchased by the blood of Christ.

Guardian of the Holy Family, be with us in our trials. May your prayers obtain for us the strength to flee from error and wrestle with the powers of corruption so that in life we may grow in holiness and in death rejoice in the crown of victory. Amen.
