My Dear Flock, ! ! I hope you are having a great week. ! ! In case you have not yet put two and two together, St. Joseph is the patron saint of our parish. I know, crazy, right? ! ! He is such a wonderful patron for us and a great saint in the Church. He is celebrated in so many ! different ways and by so many different countries and groups. One country that rejoices in celebrating St. Joseph is Italy, especially on the island of Sicily. ! ! According to legend, during the Middle Ages, a severe drought plagued Sicily. The rain did not come and crops in the fields did not grow. The famine was so bad that many people died. Farmers and ! others turned to St. Joseph to ask for his prayers to God for their crops and lives. In exchange, they promised that they would honor God and St. Joseph with a special feast. ! ! They finally received a miraculous rain. The crops grew. With the harvest that came forth, the people kept their promise and prepared a huge feast for themselves, their neighbors, and those in need. It ! became an annual tradition known as Tavola di San Giuseppe. ! ! That tradition continues still today. Around the time of the Feast of St. Joseph, March 19 th , families and parishes in Sicily and throughout the world celebrate with the St. Joseph Table tradition. St. Joseph (your parish) has been celebrating this tradition for 26 years. It is the annual fundraiser to help those in need in our parish and community. All proceeds go to purchasing grocery store gift cards to be used by those struggling to make ends meet. ! ! The 27 th Annual St. Joseph Table will be next Sunday, March 3 rd , in McDevitt Hall in the basement of the church. There will be lots of baked goods, including around 7000 cookies, which will be for sale. Many of these will be beautifully displayed on the St. Joseph Table. The baked goods will be blessed after the 7:30am Mass. Throughout the morning, folks can purchase the baked goods (the baked goods on the St. Joseph Table, when purchased, will stay on display until 2pm.) Beginning at 11am, there will be a delicious pasta luncheon until 3pm. ! ! I want to thank the organizing committee and their large group of volunteers that make this great day happen. They have been hard at work for a few weeks now. ! ! Folks come from all around to attend our St. Joseph Table. I hope you also can join us for this ! wonderful annual event. Again, all proceeds go to our brothers and sisters in need in our community. ! ! St. Joseph, pray for us. ! ! In Christ’s Peace, ! !
