The month of St. Joseph:
"We should, indeed, honor St. Joseph, since the Son of God Himself was graciously pleased to honor him by calling him father.... If, then, the King of Kings was pleased to raise Joseph to so high a dignity, it is right and obligatory on our part to endeavor to honor him as much as we can."
-St. Alphonsus Liguori
