Death of St. Joseph


It is commonly believed that Joseph died just prior to the beginning of the public ministry of Jesus. St. Joseph has not one spoken word recorded in the Bible - which speaks volumes. His strength is in his hidden silent faith, known to God alone. St. Joseph is last spoken of in the Gospel as being present at the finding of the child Jesus in the temple.
St. Joseph is known by many titles, my two favorites are "Patron of the Family" and "Terror of Demons."
St. Jospeh - ora pro nobis!
