The Annunciation is the prologue to the mysteries of Holy Week: the Incarnation happened so that we could be redeemed; the child conceived on this day was born to die for our sins and conquer death.

Walk alongside Jesus in his passion and Cross and be prepared to walk with compassion alongside our suffering brothers and sisters, with these meditations on the Way of the Cross in light of the work of the Society of St Vincent de Paul. The Ninth and Tenth Stations are included in this blog.

Who is St Joseph and what do we know about him? In this blog, discover the role St Joseph played in the lives of Jesus and Mary, how he died, and why he is patron of a happy death.

On the other hand, the love of Joseph necessarily leads us to Jesus and Mary. He was the first Christian to whom it was said, “Take the Child and His Mother.” This led a father of the Church to say, “You will always find Jesus with Mary and Joseph.”
