TODAY IS A SPECIAL DAY.

Well, for those who keep up with detail, today is Saturday, December 12, 2020.   Joseph and Mary are probably getting ready to set out for the Journey to Bethlehem, a trip of about 70 miles, which could take 3-5 days, Joseph was on foot and Mary got the donkey.  This Map gives an idea of the area. (This is important to understand what Mary went through in the coming weeks to the birth of Jesus).

Today is the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe,  Patroness of the Americas, a special devotion from our Hispanic community here at St. Joseph the Worker.  

Mother Mary, hold us close to you as you held you son Jesus, tell us not to worry, He is with us on our journey.
