The Compassionate Intercession of Saint Joseph at Saint Joseph's

What wonders! “Devotion to St. Joseph is one of the choicest graces that God can give to a soul, for it is tantamount to revealing the entire treasury of our Lord’s graces. When God wishes to raise a soul to greater heights, he unites it to St. Joseph by giving it a strong love for the good saint.” ~ St. Peter Julian Eymard

Early yesterday/Friday morning, while at Saint Joseph's for the 7:15 a.m. offering of the Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass celebrated in Latin, on Day 5 of the Nine-Day Novena to Saint Joseph prior to his Feast Day on Wednesday, March 19th, Saint Joseph came and put his arm around you to comfort you.

Thursday morning (the day before) while at work, the good chiropractic doctor noticed that you were leaning to the left.

You replied, "I am?"

The next morning it was obvious that your cervical spine needed adjusting and the pain was getting exponentially worse, fast. 

Yet DPK, DMK, MJM, and you had worked as a team to restore your health to the point where you could even make it to church at all, let alone while in pain of that severity. 

Saint Joseph noticed and came to your side kneeling in the back pew at the start of the Holy Sacrifice. 

With tremendous compassion and also with joy, he reminded you of the following: you make the schedule at the clinic.

You smiled, knowing that in two hours you would be able to put yourself first in the lineup that morning.

Being the only patient there in tears right after the clinic opened, you went first in Room 2.

So much better right away.

What wonders!

Thanks be to our Triune God, Saint Joseph, DPK, DMK, MJM, and our first patients who graciously waited for you to get adjusted first on Friday morning.
