Largest Church in Canada Honors St. Joseph
0:00
St. André Bessette, a lay brother of the Congregation of the Holy Cross, envisioned a place of pilgrimage dedicated to St. Joseph on Montreal’s highest peak, Mount Royal. Construction began in 1904, and his vision was fully realized with its completion in the 1960s. Today, the Oratory of St. Joseph is the largest church in Canada and the preeminent international center of devotion to the adoptive father of Jesus Christ. Every year, Knights assist with Sacred Heart Cathedral’s Spanish Market and Parish Fiesta in Gallup, N.M. This three-day festival brings together the community through multiple events, including an art show, a car show and a concert. The festival culminates with a eucharistic procession around the neighborhood.

Priest Asks St. Joseph for Help in Vocation
0:00
Richard Conlin wanted to be a professional golfer, and he excelled, playing on Team Canada and obtaining a sports scholarship. To him, golf was his God. One day, Richard’s mom asked him to go to confession as a gift for her birthday, which he obliged. The experience was life-changing as he found joy and peace. Instead of golf, he wanted to give others that same experience. So he entered seminary, and was ordained as a priest on Dec. 11, 2020 during the Year of St. Joseph. Since then, he has modeled his vocation after St. Joseph, striving to be a spiritual father to those he serves.

Dachau Prisoners Turned to St. Joseph
0:00
In spring 1945, prisoners at the Dachau Concentration Camp sensed that the Allied victory of the Second World War was imminent; but they also believed the Nazis would not let them leave the camp alive. On April 14, they began a novena entrusting their safety to St. Joseph of Kalisz. Unbeknownst to them, on the same day, Heinrich Himmler signed an order for the execution of all Dachau prisoners. Nine days later, more than 800 prisoners consecrated themselves to St. Joseph. Dachau was liberated by Allied troops on April 29, only hours before Himmler’s order was to be carried out. Szymon Czyszek, whose grandfather was one of those prisoners rescued that day, reflects on the power of St. Joseph as an intercessor and role model.

Mirroring St. Joseph’s Qualities in Life and Death
0:00
Since she was a young girl, Ann prayed daily that God would send her a man to marry like St. Joseph. In Paul, she found a man who reflected St. Joseph’s qualities — someone who wanted to provide for his family and lead it to heaven. The couple married and happily raised children together. Then, in 2014, doctors detected tumors in Paul’s lungs. People around the world prayed for him, and Ann believes the prayers helped make possible a special moment the couple shared before Paul’s passing. Today, Paul serves as a model of holiness to his children, and to the many people who discover his story online.

Capturing the Devotion to St. Joseph, our Patron
0:00
Aaron Joseph is a photographer with the desire of capturing peoples’ devotion being expressed, especially at the Mass. However, he initially grew up with little-to-no religious formation as a ward of the state of Connecticut. He grew up in foster homes and two institutions. Yet, he converted to the faith to become a child of God. In March 1995, he felt a call to devote his life to St. Joseph and the Blessed Mother; therefore, he founded St. Joseph: Our Patron, an apostolate dedicated to promoting the adoptive father of Jesus Christ’s universal patronage.

Shrine in Guadalajara Honors the Mexican Martyrs
0:00
Atop Guadalajara’s Cerro del Tesoro (“Treasure Hill”) sits the Sanctuary of the Martyrs of Christ the King, a massive monument dedicated to those who were killed during the 1920s persecution of Catholics by the Mexican government. It is the first site to permanently house relics of all the canonized and beatified Mexican martyrs. Among them are 9 Knights of Columbus, including six priest-martyrs whose feast is celebrated May 21. Construction on the shrine began in 2007; though the work is not finished yet, it has already become an important place of pilgrimage for the Knights and other Catholic faithful in Mexico.
