Good afternoon!
Today we begin the 33 days of preparation for the Consecration to Saint Joseph.
Here I send you the introductory video and Day 1.
To make a consecration to Saint Joseph, is to surrender to his intercession and his patronage to receive the gifts that God wants to grant us through him and to ask for and imitate his virtues.
By offering ourselves to the guidance of Saint Joseph through our consecration, we grant him “permission” for him to be our spiritual father and our role model on the path of union with God. Likewise, we ask him to take us as spiritual children, in order to receive his care.
Saint John Paul II called Saint Joseph “Guardian of the Mystery of God” to describe his role in the history of salvation. Thus we, through this consecration, become "guardians of the mystery of God" at a time when the Truth of God is being attacked and lies are imposed. Saint Paul reminds us: "Understand in what time we are living, and that it is time to wake up from sleep" Rom. 13, 11a
If for some reason you could not fulfill one day of the preparation, do not worry, giving ourselves to God through Saint Joseph is not about fulfilling precepts, but about preparing the heart to give ourselves totally. Simply, the next day pray the day you missed and continue with the consecration of it.
May Jesus, Mary, and Joseph accompany you and bless you in this beautiful spiritual exercise that you may obtain many spiritual fruits for you and your loved ones.
Sincerely,
Father Darío Miranda
Parish priest
