March is the Month of St. Joseph
Joseph the Just
Joseph was first and foremost just unto God, rendering to him what was His due. Since all things are due to God, Joseph was perfectly religious in prayer, in labor, and in love giving to God, even as an infant, the energy of his whole life. St. Joseph continues to be a model of virtue. Let us look to St. Joseph for guidance.
PLENARY INDULGENCES
Pope Francis has granted special plenary indulgences for The Year of St. Joseph. According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, an indulgence is "a remission of the temporal punishment due to sin, the guilt of which has been forgiven." You may read more in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, # 1471 by clicking here. To learn how to obtain an indulgence, please visit: https://yearofstjoseph.org/indulgences/
