Extraordinary Solemn Feasts of St Joseph Celebrated on March -19 and May-1, 2021

 


St Joseph, the just Husband of Holy Virgin Mother and the Forster Father of Lord Jesus Christ has two Solemn Feast Days in the Liturgical calendar every year. One is on March 19, His Birthday (official entry day) in Heaven and the other one is on May 1st Commemorating Him as the patron of all workers in the world.

Why is the Solemnity of St Joseph celebrated in a very special manner this year in 2021?

St Joseph has been venerated as the patron of families in the Catholic Church since beginning. In 1870 on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of Virgin Mother (8th December) Pope Blessed Pius IX declared St Joseph as the Patron of the Universal Catholic Church.

This year commemorating the 150th anniversary of the declaration, Pope Francis proclaimed a 'very special year in honour of St Joseph' starting from 2020 Solemnity of Immaculate Conception to 2021 Feast ie on December 8th.

As the solemn feasts of St Joseph on March 19th and May 1st in 2021 falls in this special year, these feasts are also unusual and very extraordinary..!
