The Feast Of St. Joseph

We owe Joseph a great debt of gratitude for his obedience to God and for his care for Mary and her son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

From the Lectionary:

PRAYER

O God, who from the family of your servant David raised up Joseph to be the guardian of your incarnate Son and the spouse of his virgin mother: Give us grace to imitate his uprightness of life and his obedience to your commands; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

    Mark, you're right. I presume that, since you were successful, you buried St. Joseph properly - head down.
