Realtors and St Joseph


To all realtors (and clients) that have asked for the intercession of St. Joseph in the sale of a home. Today is the Feast of St. Joseph, a good time to thank him again for his help or to ask again for his intercession if his buyer has been reluctant to purchase your listing.

A Reflection on St Joseph

Joseph the just man, descended from the house of David, inserts Jesus into the line of David. Like his Old Testament counterpart, Joseph’s faithfulness extended even to his dreams. Joseph took Mary into his home as his wife, and loved her with a love beyond all human limits. “Joseph looked on the Blessed Virgin Mary as the high priest looks on the Holy of Holies” (Jacob of Serug). As a true father, Joseph gave his name, and rescued his infant Son from the murderous designs of King Herod. Saint Joseph’s silent obedience resounds in the Church he protects. (Magnificat Monthly Vol 10)St Joseph…pray for us.
