Month of the St. Joseph

Devotion of the Month

The Church traditionally dedicates the month of March to the special veneration of St. Joseph, whose feast day is March 19th. “He was chosen by the eternal Father as the trustworthy guardian and protector of his greatest treasures, namely, his divine Son and Mary, Joseph’s wife,” says St. Bernardine of Siena. “He carried out this vocation with complete fidelity until at last God called him, saying ‘Good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of your Lord.’” Due to St. Joseph’s leadership of the Holy Family, he has been declared the protector and patron of the universal Catholic Church.

We had another great week beginning with celebrating Read Across America, and the birthday of Dr. Seuss! Thank you to all of our teachers for making this a fun and special week for their students.

Thank you for sharing your precious children with us!

God bless,
