Sheedy: St. Joseph is a guide to being an everyday saint

May 24, 2021

If you’re anything like me, you might find it a bit tough to relate to St. Joseph. Not only did he live 2,000 years ago on the other side of the planet, but we know next to nothing about him. Not a single word he said has been recorded and the Gospels give us only

Edmonton Archbishop Richard Smith said there’s a risk of taking for granted the message of extraordinary, sure hope that is contained in those words. Over the past year as we deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re looking for signs of hope However, nothing
