Saint Joseph is the Patron Saint of a Happy Home. As most of you know, Joseph was a carpenter from Nazareth, husband of Mary and the foster father of Jesus. Joseph first made a home for Mary in Nazareth and then moved his pregnant wife to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. Joseph again moved to Egypt and then back to Nazareth. Obviously, Saint Joseph knew about moving, selling homes and finding new ones!
St. Joseph has long been called upon to help us with our many good petitions, and should not be used for superstitious purposes.
This kit goes a long way toward explaining the Catholic belief in, and importance of, the saints in our Church. The enclosed printed material is very clear about the seriousness of this not being used as a superstitious act, but as a way of petitioning St. Joseph. It cautions against all the various rituals regarding how the statue may be buried, and emphasizes that, with any petition, it is God's Will that ultimately prevails. The explanation also tells us that the burial of the statue is an "outward sign" of our trust in St. Joseph as a powerful intercessor for us, and that the petition should also include other family needs as well.
You'll also find that the information references Divine Favors Granted to St. Joseph for more detail regarding St. Joseph's role as our intercessor. With any Catholic tradition, if the intention is not sincere in the way that our Faith teaches, then it becomes superstition. Beyond the obvious purpose of the kit, we believe there is the opportunity for one to become more familiar with the role of St. Joseph, and the saints in general, in our Church.
Kit is 6.25"H x 3.5"W x 1"D, and includes 3.5" plastic St. Joseph figure, prayer to St. Joseph, and instructions.
