On the 23rd of June, a new statue of St Joseph was installed in our church. It has been placed on a plinth at the entrance to the Lady Chapel. The statue will help us all in our devotion to St Joseph, the Patriarch and earthly father of our Saviour. It is fitting that we received the statue around Fathers Day so that we are reminded of the example of St Joseph and the relationship that he had with Jesus. Let us pray to him that all fathers will follow his example and receive his guiding presence as they seek to raise the children entrusted to them.

Loving and faithful God,
we thank You for the gift of the Patriarch, St. Joseph,
protector of the Holy Family and model of humble service.
May this statue be a reminder of his quiet strength,
his steadfast trust in Your will,
and his tender care for Mary and Jesus.
Bless + this image, that all who look upon it
may be inspired to live with faith, courage, and compassion.
May they receive the gift of the Christ
presented by St Joseph his protector and guide.
Through the intercession of St. Joseph,
may our homes be places of peace,
our work be done with integrity,
and our hearts remain open to Your guidance.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
