I think I have convinced most Italian-Americans that St. Joseph’s Day is not just for Sicilians. As I have stated, The Saint Joseph Society of Boston appeared time to time for St. Joseph’s special intercession. Thanksgiving was fi rst celebrated in Massachusetts, yet on National Catholic Television at Mass this past During the televised Mass, Fr. Robert Reed it is celebrated by all Americans. While it is true the Saturday and presented the station with a statue blessed the statue of The Sleeping Saint Joseph, St. Joseph’s Day table was fi rst celebrated in Sicily, Italy, of “The Sleeping Saint Joseph.” delivered a sermon praising the work of the today it is celebrated in all of Italy.

Until recently, St. Joseph’s Day was a national holiday. BOSTON RESIDENTS: The unique St. Joseph’s Day table is a special part of the celebration. According to legend, a severe drought in Western CONTACT YOUR CITY COUNCILORS! Sicily during the Middle Ages threatened to destroy all vegeta- tion and caused a great number of people to starve. The people To Support the “Puppy Mill Bill!” asked St. Joseph to pray with them to the Lord. They promised that each succeeding generation would honor St. Joseph per- petually on his feast day if God would send them rain. The rain fell at the stroke of midnight and miraculously the land turned green and fi sh became abundant. God had sent the rain — St. Joseph had interceded. Many Italian-Americans from all regions of Italy, and Americans in general, have a St. Joseph’s table or serve St. Joseph’s Day food. This is due to great publicity the Feast Day has received in a number of American newspapers, maga- zines and other media. The custom of the St. Joseph’s Table began in homes. Individuals who received favors through St. Joseph’s intercession would promise altars to honor him. At fi rst it was a private affair, a simple table with a statue of St. Joseph with the Christ Child and traditional foods. In some areas of Sicily, there was a community altar, as well as a fam- ily altar.

Quill chose the MSPCA as the recipient of the International Special Event Society Boston initiative “ISES Boston Pays It Forward” December challenge. Quill said she chose the MSPCA as her challenge recipient because “this organization is important to me because I care about the well-being, shelter and care for homeless animals. I support their belief that every animal deserves a chance and not one should be turned away.” Quill’s team participated in the Super Bowl Polar Bear Plunge on February 7th. “Our goal for the plunge was to raise $500 and we surpassed that with a total of $595 in funds raised. We came in 3rd place in the Team Honor Roll for most money raised and we were in the top 10 of overall fundraisers,” Quill tells us. Along with the assistance of a friend’s classroom to help collect towels, blankets, food and toys, over $1,100 was donated to the MSPCA Boston and Cape Cod. The International Special Events Society Boston Chapter started a monthly initiative called “ISES Boston Pays It Forward.” It was created to encourage their members to give back within the Boston community and beyond. Every month, one member is challenged to select an organization they value most. This member must then organize an effort to support that organization and meet his/her Luminettes can partner beautifully with a drapery. goal before the next chapter meeting. At the end of the year all Pay It Forward projects will be reviewed and the best one will be recognized and rewarded at their End of Year June Gala. Since the program began in September 2015, ISES Boston members have raised and donated over $4,275 in monetary donations and over $500 in kind donations to the following organizations: Voices of Hope, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, MSPCA, Pink Angels, WGBH and Housing Families. The International Special Events Society Boston is the local chapter of an international community made up of event planners, suppliers and vendors. ISES is the principal association representing creative events professionals globally.
