The Archdiocese of Edmonton certainly has a long tradition of devotion to St. Joseph. Every time one turns a corner, something named after him is encountered. The cathedral, our seminary, the Catholic college at the University of Alberta, an auxiliary hospital and our first Catholic high school all bear the name of this wonderful saint.
Far more important than naming an institution after Saint Joseph is taking after him in our daily living. As patron of the universal Church, Saint Joseph is a model for each of us to imitate as we live out our baptismal call to holiness.
