In his youth, he prayed for the coming of the promised Messiah. In his adult life, he loved and upheld the Son of God and His blessed mother. And now, In the Heavenly Court, he intercedes for the Church before the throne of Christ.

começar com as orações ardentes de seus pais a fim de conceberem um

diabo, seu casamento com a Bem-aventurada Virgem Maria, o nascimento de
Cristo e a convivência com Ele e as circunstâncias de sua morte e
glorificação no Céu. Além da teoria que trata da assunção de São José,

In his youth, he prayed for the coming of the promised Messiah. In his adult life, not only were his prayers answered, but he loved and upheld the Messiah, Jesus Christ. And now, in the Court of Heaven, St. Joseph intercedes for the Church before the throne of Christ. Using the words of Popes, Saints, and approved mystics, The Book of Joseph, aims to dispel the common belief held by many that nothing is known about the saint other than what is mentioned briefly in the Bible. This work, which has been granted the Imprimatur, presents the life of St. Joseph beginning with the faithful prayers of his parents to conceive a son to his birth and childhood, harassment by the devil, his marriage to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the birth and life with Christ, through to the circumstances of his death and his glorification in Heaven. In addition to the theory of the assumption of St. Joseph, his sanctification in the womb and perpetual virginity are discussed.<br /><br />The book concludes with a series of prayers including the Holy Cloak devotion, the Litany of St. Joseph, chaplet, praises, and supplications. There are also sections on St. Joseph in scripture, feast days, relics, approved St. Joseph apparitions, quotes of the Popes and Saints, as well as 30 image pages.

Matthew and Luke, the two Evangelists who speak most of Joseph, tell us very little, yet enough for us to appreciate what sort of father he was, and the mission entrusted to him by God’s providence.
We know that Joseph was a lowly carpenter (cf. Mt 13:55), betrothed to Mary (cf. Mt 1:18; Lk 1:27). He was a “just man” (Mt 1:19), ever ready to carry out God’s will as revealed to him in the Law (cf. Lk 2:22.27.39) and through four dreams (cf. Mt 1:20; 2:13.19.22). After a long and tiring journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, he beheld the birth of the Messiah in a stable, since “there was no place for them” elsewhere (cf. Lk 2:7). He witnessed the adoration of the shepherds (cf. Lk 2:8-20) and the Magi (cf. Mt 2:1-12), who represented respectively the people of Israel and the pagan peoples.
Joseph had the courage to become the legal father of Jesus, to whom he gave the name revealed by the angel: “You shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins” (Mt 1:21). As we know, for ancient peoples, to give a name to a person or to a thing, as Adam did in the account in the Book of Genesis (cf. 2:19-20), was to establish a relationship.
In the Temple, forty days after Jesus’ birth, Joseph and Mary offered their child to the Lord and listened with amazement to Simeon’s prophecy concerning Jesus and his Mother (cf. Lk 2:22-35).<br /><br />To protect Jesus from Herod, Joseph dwelt as a foreigner in Egypt (cf. Mt 2:13-18). After returning to his own country, he led a hidden life in the tiny and obscure village of Nazareth in Galilee, far from Bethlehem, his ancestral town, and from Jerusalem and the Temple. Of Nazareth it was said, “No prophet is to rise” (cf. Jn 7:52) and indeed, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” (cf. Jn 1:46). When, during a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, Joseph and Mary lost track of the twelve-year-old Jesus, they anxiously sought him out and they found him in the Temple, in discussion with the doctors of the Law (cf. Lk 2:41-50).<br /><br />After Mary, the Mother of God, no saint is mentioned more frequently in the papal magisterium than Joseph, her spouse. My Predecessors reflected on the message contained in the limited information handed down by the Gospels in order to appreciate more fully his central role in the history of salvation. Blessed Pius IX declared him “Patron of the Catholic Church”,[2] Venerable Pius XII proposed him as “Patron of Workers”[3] and Saint John Paul II as “Guardian of the Redeemer”.[4] Saint Joseph is universally invoked as the “patron of a happy death”.[5]
Now, one hundred and fifty years after his proclamation as Patron of the Catholic Church by Blessed Pius IX (8 December 1870), I would like to share some personal reflections on this extraordinary figure, so close to our own human experience. For, as Jesus says, “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Mt 12:34).<br /><br />My desire to do so increased during these months of pandemic, when we experienced, amid the crisis, how “our lives are woven together and sustained by ordinary people, people often overlooked. People who do not appear in newspaper and magazine headlines, or on the latest television show, yet in these very days are surely shaping the decisive events of our history. Doctors, nurses, storekeepers and supermarket workers, cleaning personnel, caregivers, transport workers, men and women working to provide essential services and public safety, volunteers, priests, men and women religious, and so very many others. They understood that no one is saved alone… How many people daily exercise patience and offer hope, taking care to spread not panic, but shared responsibility. How many fathers, mothers, grandparents and teachers are showing our children, in small everyday ways, how to accept and deal with a crisis by adjusting their routines, looking ahead and encouraging the practice of prayer. How many are praying, making sacrifices and interceding for the good of all”.[6]<br /><br />Each of us can discover in Joseph – the man who goes unnoticed, a daily, discreet and hidden presence – an intercessor, a support and a guide in times of trouble. Saint Joseph reminds us that those who appear hidden or in the shadows can play an incomparable role in the history of salvation. A word of recognition and of gratitude is due to them all. <br /><br />1. A beloved father.
The greatness of Saint Joseph is that he was the spouse of Mary and the father of Jesus. In this way, he placed himself, in the words of Saint John Chrysostom, “at the service of the entire plan of salvation”.[7]
Saint Paul VI pointed out that Joseph concretely expressed his fatherhood “by making his life a sacrificial service to the mystery of the incarnation and its redemptive purpose. He employed his legal authority over the Holy Family to devote himself completely to them in his life and work. He turned his human vocation to domestic love into a superhuman oblation of himself, his heart and all his abilities, a love placed at the service of the Messiah who was growing to maturity in his home”.[8]
Thanks to his role in salvation history, Saint Joseph has always been venerated as a father by the Christian people. This is shown by the countless churches dedicated to him worldwide, the numerous religious Institutes, Confraternities and ecclesial groups inspired by his spirituality and bearing his name, and the many traditional expressions of piety in his honour. Innumerable holy men and women were passionately devoted to him. Among them was Teresa of Avila, who chose him as her advocate and intercessor, had frequent recourse to him and received whatever graces she asked of him. Encouraged by her own experience, Teresa persuaded others to cultivate devotion to Joseph.[9]
Every prayer book contains prayers to Saint Joseph. Special prayers are offered to him each Wednesday and especially during the month of March, which is traditionally dedicated to him.[10]
Popular trust in Saint Joseph is seen in the expression “Go to Joseph”, which evokes the famine in Egypt, when the Egyptians begged Pharaoh for bread. He in turn replied: “Go to Joseph; what he says to you, do” (Gen 41:55). Pharaoh was referring to Joseph the son of Jacob, who was sold into slavery because of the jealousy of his brothers (cf. Gen 37:11-28) and who – according to the biblical account – subsequently became viceroy of Egypt (cf. Gen 41:41-44).
As a descendant of David (cf. Mt 1:16-20), from whose stock Jesus was to spring according to the promise made to David by the prophet Nathan (cf. 2 Sam 7), and as the spouse of Mary of Nazareth, Saint Joseph stands at the crossroads between the Old and New Testaments.<br /><br />2. A tender and loving father.
Joseph saw Jesus grow daily “in wisdom and in years and in divine and human favour” (Lk 2:52). As the Lord had done with Israel, so Joseph did with Jesus: “he taught him to walk, taking him by the hand; he was for him like a father who raises an infant to his cheeks, bending down to him and feeding him” (cf. Hos 11:3-4).
In Joseph, Jesus saw the tender love of God: “As a father has compassion for his children, so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him” (Ps 103:13).
In the synagogue, during the praying of the Psalms, Joseph would surely have heard again and again that the God of Israel is a God of tender love,[11] who is good to all, whose “compassion is over all that he has made” (Ps 145:9).<br /><br />The history of salvation is worked out “in hope against hope” (Rom 4:18), through our weaknesses. All too often, we think that God works only through our better parts, yet most of his plans are realized in and despite our frailty. Thus Saint Paul could say: “To keep me from being too elated, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, to keep me from being too elated. Three times I appealed to the Lord about this, that it would leave me, but he said to me: ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness’” (2 Cor 12:7-9).
Since this is part of the entire economy of salvation, we must learn to look upon our weaknesses with tender mercy.[12]
The Evil one makes us see and condemn our frailty, whereas the Spirit brings it to light with tender love. Tenderness is the best way to touch the frailty within us. Pointing fingers and judging others are frequently signs of an inability to accept our own weaknesses, our own frailty. Only tender love will save us from the snares of the accuser (cf. Rev 12:10). That is why it is so important to encounter God’s mercy, especially in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, where we experience his truth and tenderness. Paradoxically, the Evil one can also speak the truth to us, yet he does so only to condemn us. We know that God’s truth does not condemn, but instead welcomes, embraces, sustains and forgives us. That truth always presents itself to us like the merciful father in Jesus’ parable (cf. Lk 15:11-32). It comes out to meet us, restores our dignity, sets us back on our feet and rejoices for us, for, as the father says: “This my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found” (v. 24).<br /><br />Even through Joseph’s fears, God’s will, his history and his plan were at work. Joseph, then, teaches us that faith in God includes believing that he can work even through our fears, our frailties and our weaknesses. He also teaches us that amid the tempests of life, we must never be afraid to let the Lord steer our course. At times, we want to be in complete control, yet God always sees the bigger picture.<br /><br />3. An obedient father.
As he had done with Mary, God revealed his saving plan to Joseph. He did so by using dreams, which in the Bible and among all ancient peoples, were considered a way for him to make his will known.[13]
Joseph was deeply troubled by Mary’s mysterious pregnancy. He did not want to “expose her to public disgrace”,[14] so he decided to “dismiss her quietly” (Mt 1:19).
In the first dream, an angel helps him resolve his grave dilemma: “Do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins” (Mt 1:20-21). Joseph’s response was immediate: “When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him” (Mt 1:24). Obedience made it possible for him to surmount his difficulties and spare Mary.
In the second dream, the angel tells Joseph: “Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him” (Mt 2:13). Joseph did not hesitate to obey, regardless of the hardship involved: “He got up, took the child and his mother by night, and went to Egypt, and remained there until the death of Herod” (Mt 2:14-15).
In Egypt, Joseph awaited with patient trust the angel’s notice that he could safely return home. In a third dream, the angel told him that those who sought to kill the child were dead and ordered him to rise, take the child and his mother, and return to the land of Israel (cf. Mt 2:19-20). Once again, Joseph promptly obeyed. “He got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel” (Mt 2:21).
During the return journey, “when Joseph heard that Archelaus was ruling over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. After being warned in a dream” – now for the fourth time – “he went away to the district of Galilee. There he made his home in a town called Nazareth” (Mt 2:22-23).<br /><br />The evangelist Luke, for his part, tells us that Joseph undertook the long and difficult journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem to be registered in his family’s town of origin in the census of the Emperor Caesar Augustus. There Jesus was born (cf. Lk 2: 7) and his birth, like that of every other child, was recorded in the registry of the Empire. Saint Luke is especially concerned to tell us that Jesus’ parents observed all the prescriptions of the Law: the rites of the circumcision of Jesus, the purification of Mary after childbirth, the offering of the firstborn to God (cf. 2:21-24).[15]
In every situation, Joseph declared his own “fiat”, like those of Mary at the Annunciation and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.
In his role as the head of a family, Joseph taught Jesus to be obedient to his parents (cf. Lk 2:51), in accordance with God’s command (cf. Ex 20:12).
During the hidden years in Nazareth, Jesus learned at the school of Joseph to do the will of the Father. That will was to be his daily food (cf. Jn 4:34). Even at the most difficult moment of his life, in Gethsemane, Jesus chose to do the Father’s will rather than his own,[16] becoming “obedient unto death, even death on a cross” (Phil 2:8). The author of the Letter to the Hebrews thus concludes that Jesus “learned obedience through what he suffered” (5:8).
All this makes it clear that “Saint Joseph was called by God to serve the person and mission of Jesus directly through the exercise of his fatherhood” and that in this way, “he cooperated in the fullness of time in the great mystery of salvation and is truly a minister of salvation.”[17]<br /><br />4. An accepting father.
Joseph accepted Mary unconditionally. He trusted in the angel’s words. “The nobility of Joseph’s heart is such that what he learned from the law he made dependent on charity. Today, in our world where psychological, verbal and physical violence towards women is so evident, Joseph appears as the figure of a respectful and sensitive man. Even though he does not understand the bigger picture, he makes a decision to protect Mary’s good name, her dignity and her life. In his hesitation about how best to act, God helped him by enlightening his judgment”.[18]
Often in life, things happen whose meaning we do not understand. Our first reaction is frequently one of disappointment and rebellion. Joseph set aside his own ideas in order to accept the course of events and, mysterious as they seemed, to embrace them, take responsibility for them and make them part of his own history. Unless we are reconciled with our own history, we will be unable to take a single step forward, for we will always remain hostage to our expectations and the disappointments that follow.<br /><br />The spiritual path that Joseph traces for us is not one that explains, but accepts. Only as a result of this acceptance, this reconciliation, can we begin to glimpse a broader history, a deeper meaning. We can almost hear an echo of the impassioned reply of Job to his wife, who had urged him to rebel against the evil he endured: “Shall we receive the good at the hand of God, and not receive the bad?” (Job 2:10).
Joseph is certainly not passively resigned, but courageously and firmly proactive. In our own lives, acceptance and welcome can be an expression of the Holy Spirit’s gift of fortitude. Only the Lord can give us the strength needed to accept life as it is, with all its contradictions, frustrations and disappointments.
Jesus’ appearance in our midst is a gift from the Father, which makes it possible for each of us to be reconciled to the flesh of our own history, even when we fail to understand it completely.
Just as God told Joseph: “Son of David, do not be afraid!” (Mt 1:20), so he seems to tell us: “Do not be afraid!” We need to set aside all anger and disappointment, and to embrace the way things are, even when they do not turn out as we wish. Not with mere resignation but with hope and courage. In this way, we become open to a deeper meaning. Our lives can be miraculously reborn if we find the courage to live them in accordance with the Gospel. It does not matter if everything seems to have gone wrong or some things can no longer be fixed. God can make flowers spring up from stony ground. Even if our heart condemns us, “God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything” (1 Jn 3:20).
Here, once again, we encounter that Christian realism which rejects nothing that exists. Reality, in its mysterious and irreducible complexity, is the bearer of existential meaning, with all its lights and shadows. Thus, the Apostle Paul can say: “We know that all things work together for good, for those who love God” (Rom 8:28). To which Saint Augustine adds, “even that which is called evil (etiam illud quod malum dicitur)”.[19] In this greater perspective, faith gives meaning to every event, however happy or sad.
Nor should we ever think that believing means finding facile and comforting solutions. The faith Christ taught us is what we see in Saint Joseph. He did not look for shortcuts, but confronted reality with open eyes and accepted personal responsibility for it.
Joseph’s attitude encourages us to accept and welcome others as they are, without exception, and to show special concern for the weak, for God chooses what is weak (cf. 1 Cor 1:27). He is the “Father of orphans and protector of widows” (Ps 68:6), who commands us to love the stranger in our midst.[20] I like to think that it was from Saint Joseph that Jesus drew inspiration for the parable of the prodigal son and the merciful father (cf. Lk 15:11-32).<br /><br />5. A creatively courageous father.
If the first stage of all true interior healing is to accept our personal history and embrace even the things in life that we did not choose, we must now add another important element: creative courage. This emerges especially in the way we deal with difficulties. In the face of difficulty, we can either give up and walk away, or somehow engage with it. At times, difficulties bring out resources we did not even think we had.
As we read the infancy narratives, we may often wonder why God did not act in a more direct and clear way. Yet God acts through events and people. Joseph was the man chosen by God to guide the beginnings of the history of redemption. He was the true “miracle” by which God saves the child and his mother. God acted by trusting in Joseph’s creative courage. Arriving in Bethlehem and finding no lodging where Mary could give birth, Joseph took a stable and, as best he could, turned it into a welcoming home for the Son of God come into the world (cf. Lk 2:6-7). Faced with imminent danger from Herod, who wanted to kill the child, Joseph was warned once again in a dream to protect the child, and rose in the middle of the night to prepare the flight into Egypt (cf. Mt 2:13-14).<br /><br />A superficial reading of these stories can often give the impression that the world is at the mercy of the strong and mighty, but the “good news” of the Gospel consists in showing that, for all the arrogance and violence of worldly powers, God always finds a way to carry out his saving plan. So too, our lives may at times seem to be at the mercy of the powerful, but the Gospel shows us what counts. God always finds a way to save us, provided we show the same creative courage as the carpenter of Nazareth, who was able to turn a problem into a possibility by trusting always in divine providence.
If at times God seems not to help us, surely this does not mean that we have been abandoned, but instead are being trusted to plan, to be creative, and to find solutions ourselves.
That kind of creative courage was shown by the friends of the paralytic, who lowered him from the roof in order to bring him to Jesus (cf. Lk 5:17-26). Difficulties did not stand in the way of those friends’ boldness and persistence. They were convinced that Jesus could heal the man, and “finding no way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the middle of the crowd in front of Jesus. When he saw their faith, he said, ‘Friend, your sins are forgiven you’” (vv. 19-20). Jesus recognized the creative faith with which they sought to bring their sick friend to him.
The Gospel does not tell us how long Mary, Joseph and the child remained in Egypt. Yet they certainly needed to eat, to find a home and employment. It does not take much imagination to fill in those details. The Holy Family had to face concrete problems like every other family, like so many of our migrant brothers and sisters who, today too, risk their lives to escape misfortune and hunger. In this regard, I consider Saint Joseph the special patron of all those forced to leave their native lands because of war, hatred, persecution and poverty.
At the end of every account in which Joseph plays a role, the Gospel tells us that he gets up, takes the child and his mother, and does what God commanded him (cf. Mt 1:24; 2:14.21). <br /><br />Indeed, Jesus and Mary his Mother are the most precious treasure of our faith.[21]
In the divine plan of salvation, the Son is inseparable from his Mother, from Mary, who “advanced in her pilgrimage of faith, and faithfully persevered in her union with her Son until she stood at the cross”.[22]
We should always consider whether we ourselves are protecting Jesus and Mary, for they are also mysteriously entrusted to our own responsibility, care and safekeeping. The Son of the Almighty came into our world in a state of great vulnerability. He needed to be defended, protected, cared for and raised by Joseph. God trusted Joseph, as did Mary, who found in him someone who would not only save her life, but would always provide for her and her child. In this sense, Saint Joseph could not be other than the Guardian of the Church, for the Church is the continuation of the Body of Christ in history, even as Mary’s motherhood is reflected in the motherhood of the Church.[23] In his continued protection of the Church, Joseph continues to protect the child and his mother, and we too, by our love for the Church, continue to love the child and his mother.
That child would go on to say: “As you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me” (Mt 25:40). Consequently, every poor, needy, suffering or dying person, every stranger, every prisoner, every infirm person is “the child” whom Joseph continues to protect. For this reason, Saint Joseph is invoked as protector of the unfortunate, the needy, exiles, the afflicted, the poor and the dying. Consequently, the Church cannot fail to show a special love for the least of our brothers and sisters, for Jesus showed a particular concern for them and personally identified with them. From Saint Joseph, we must learn that same care and responsibility. We must learn to love the child and his mother, to love the sacraments and charity, to love the Church and the poor. Each of these realities is always the child and his mother.<br /><br />6. A working father.
An aspect of Saint Joseph that has been emphasized from the time of the first social Encyclical, Pope Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum, is his relation to work. Saint Joseph was a carpenter who earned an honest living to provide for his family. From him, Jesus learned the value, the dignity and the joy of what it means to eat bread that is the fruit of one’s own labour.
In our own day, when employment has once more become a burning social issue, and unemployment at times reaches record levels even in nations that for decades have enjoyed a certain degree of prosperity, there is a renewed need to appreciate the importance of dignified work, of which Saint Joseph is an exemplary patron.
Work is a means of participating in the work of salvation, an opportunity to hasten the coming of the Kingdom, to develop our talents and abilities, and to put them at the service of society and fraternal communion. It becomes an opportunity for the fulfillment not only of oneself, but also of that primary cell of society which is the family. A family without work is particularly vulnerable to difficulties, tensions, estrangement and even break-up. How can we speak of human dignity without working to ensure that everyone is able to earn a decent living?
Working persons, whatever their job may be, are cooperating with God himself, and in some way become creators of the world around us. The crisis of our time, which is economic, social, cultural and spiritual, can serve as a summons for all of us to rediscover the value, the importance and necessity of work for bringing about a new “normal” from which no one is excluded.<br /><br />Saint Joseph’s work reminds us that God himself, in becoming man, did not disdain work. The loss of employment that affects so many of our brothers and sisters, and has increased as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, should serve as a summons to review our priorities. Let us implore Saint Joseph the Worker to help us find ways to express our firm conviction that no young person, no person at all, no family should be without work!<br /><br />7. A father in the shadows.
The Polish writer Jan Dobraczyński, in his book The Shadow of the Father,[24] tells the story of Saint Joseph’s life in the form of a novel. He uses the evocative image of a shadow to define Joseph. In his relationship to Jesus, Joseph was the earthly shadow of the heavenly Father: he watched over him and protected him, never leaving him to go his own way. We can think of Moses’ words to Israel: “In the wilderness… you saw how the Lord your God carried you, just as one carries a child, all the way that you travelled” (Deut 1:31). In a similar way, Joseph acted as a father for his whole life.[25]
Fathers are not born, but made. A man does not become a father simply by bringing a child into the world, but by taking up the responsibility to care for that child. Whenever a man accepts responsibility for the life of another, in some way he becomes a father to that person.
Children today often seem orphans, lacking fathers. The Church too needs fathers. Saint Paul’s words to the Corinthians remain timely: “Though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers” (1 Cor 4:15). Every priest or bishop should be able to add, with the Apostle: “I became your father in Christ Jesus through the Gospel” (ibid.). Paul likewise calls the Galatians: “My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you!” (4:19).
Being a father entails introducing children to life and reality. Not holding them back, being overprotective or possessive, but rather making them capable of deciding for themselves, enjoying freedom and exploring new possibilities. Perhaps for this reason, Joseph is traditionally called a “most chaste” father. That title is not simply a sign of affection, but the summation of an attitude that is the opposite of possessiveness.<br /><br />Chastity is freedom from possessiveness in every sphere of one’s life. Only when love is chaste, is it truly love. A possessive love ultimately becomes dangerous: it imprisons, constricts and makes for misery. God himself loved humanity with a chaste love; he left us free even to go astray and set ourselves against him. The logic of love is always the logic of freedom, and Joseph knew how to love with extraordinary freedom. He never made himself the centre of things. He did not think of himself, but focused instead on the lives of Mary and Jesus.
Joseph found happiness not in mere self-sacrifice but in self-gift. In him, we never see frustration but only trust. His patient silence was the prelude to concrete expressions of trust.<br /><br />Our world today needs fathers. It has no use for tyrants who would domineer others as a means of compensating for their own needs. It rejects those who confuse authority with authoritarianism, service with servility, discussion with oppression, charity with a welfare mentality, power with destruction. Every true vocation is born of the gift of oneself, which is the fruit of mature sacrifice. The priesthood and consecrated life likewise require this kind of maturity. Whatever our vocation, whether to marriage, celibacy or virginity, our gift of self will not come to fulfillment if it stops at sacrifice; were that the case, instead of becoming a sign of the beauty and joy of love, the gift of self would risk being an expression of unhappiness, sadness and frustration.
When fathers refuse to live the lives of their children for them, new and unexpected vistas open up. Every child is the bearer of a unique mystery that can only be brought to light with the help of a father who respects that child’s freedom. A father who realizes that he is most a father and educator at the point when he becomes “useless”, when he sees that his child has become independent and can walk the paths of life unaccompanied. When he becomes like Joseph, who always knew that his child was not his own but had merely been entrusted to his care.<br /><br />In the end, this is what Jesus would have us understand when he says: “Call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven” (Mt 23:9).
In every exercise of our fatherhood, we should always keep in mind that it has nothing to do with possession, but is rather a “sign” pointing to a greater fatherhood. In a way, we are all like Joseph: a shadow of the heavenly Father, who “makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust” (Mt 5:45). And a shadow that follows his Son.
<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />“Get up, take the child and his mother” (Mt 2:13), God told Saint Joseph.
The aim of this Apostolic Letter is to increase our love for this great saint, to encourage us to implore his intercession and to imitate his virtues and his zeal.
Indeed, the proper mission of the saints is not only to obtain miracles and graces, but to intercede for us before God, like Abraham[26] and Moses[27], and like Jesus, the “one mediator” (1 Tim 2:5), who is our “advocate” with the Father (1 Jn 2:1) and who “always lives to make intercession for [us]” (Heb 7:25; cf. Rom 8:34).
The saints help all the faithful “to strive for the holiness and the perfection of their particular state of life”.[28] Their lives are concrete proof that it is possible to put the Gospel into practice.
Jesus told us: “Learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart” (Mt 11:29). The lives of the saints too are examples to be imitated. Saint Paul explicitly says this: “Be imitators of me!” (1 Cor 4:16).[29] By his eloquent silence, Saint Joseph says the same.
Before the example of so many holy men and women, Saint Augustine asked himself: “What they could do, can you not also do?” And so he drew closer to his definitive conversion, when he could exclaim: “Late have I loved you, Beauty ever ancient, ever new!”[30]<br /><br />We need only ask Saint Joseph for the grace of graces: our conversion.
Let us now make our prayer to him:
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer,
Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
To you God entrusted his only Son;
in you Mary placed her trust;
with you Christ became man.
Blessed Joseph, to us too,
show yourself a father
and guide us in the path of life.
Obtain for us grace, mercy and courage,
and defend us from every evil. Amen.

[10] Every day, for over forty years, following Lauds I have recited a prayer to Saint Joseph taken from a nineteenth-century French prayer book of the Congregation of the Sisters of Jesus and Mary. It expresses devotion and trust, and even poses a certain challenge to Saint Joseph: “Glorious Patriarch Saint Joseph, whose power makes the impossible possible, come to my aid in these times of anguish and difficulty. Take under your protection the serious and troubling situations that I commend to you, that they may have a happy outcome. My beloved father, all my trust is in you. Let it not be said that I invoked you in vain, and since you can do everything with Jesus and Mary, show me that your goodness is as great as your power. Amen.”

the afternoon of Sunday, the 16th of May, that Carlos Alberto Delgado, 11 years
of age, was studying with other students at the house of their teacher. The 4th
grade 100 exam was approaching, and the outcome would determine those who would
advance to the next grade and continue attending school, and those who no
longer would. The teacher often tutored her students on weekends, as she wanted
very much for them all to pass the exam. She even recommended to the children
that, in addition to studying, to pray for assistance with the exam, as they
needed all the help they could get.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">A few
days earlier, Carlos Alberto claimed to have seen a strange “transparent cloud”
on the roof of his house. When he told this to his classmates, they taunted
him, and his teacher, being a prudent woman, did not believe him either. It was
because of the continued taunting on that Sunday that he and a friend, Manuel
Carreira, began studying away from the group, near some trees. Later that
afternoon, Carlos Alberto left his friend to go relieve himself in the bushes.
On his way back, he heard the rustling of leaves and looking up he saw some
tree branches shaking lightly. With his eyes fixed upward – accor</span></span></span><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></span></span><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">ding to his
testimony – the same bright cloud that had appeared to him a few days before
appeared again, however this time a Lady manifested above the cloud.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">

beautiful in every sense. Carlos Alberto, afraid, began to run away, but the
vision, which remained among the laurel foliage, spoke to him with extreme
sweetness: </span></span></span><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></span></span><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“Don’t be scared, boy.

Carlos Alberto calmed and returned to the tree, the Lady continued speaking to
him. She told him to apply himself to his studies and to pray, often, at that
same place. She also told him that she would return there on the 16th for eight
consecutive months. The story of the vision quickly spread, becoming the topic
of conversation in many circles. When speaking of the vision, Carlos Alberto,
who was known to always tell the truth, spoke firm, categorical, and full of
conviction. Not very many people doubted his sincerity. However, the local
authorities had to interrogate him, and they did so relentlessly until his next
meeting with the Virgin. To their satisfaction, the boy answered all questions,
was assertive in his words, and never contradicted the tiniest detail in the
various statements he had to give. Carlos Alberto was also subject to numerous
psychiatric examinations, as the civil and ecclesiastical authorities wanted to
be sure of his soundness of mind, from which he received a clean bill of mental
health every time.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Over the
following months, the boy continued meeting with Our Lady on the same spot, on
the 16th of each month, with more and more people accompanying him each time.
The Mother of the Redeemer asked for Carlos Alberto to pray, to observe the ten
commandments, and to do good deeds. On the eve of each appearance, people
witnessed unusual lights in the night sky, and, the next morning, would
reportedly see the sun rise much earlier than usual, and moving about in the
sky. </span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">As the
fame of these apparitions grew, the government and the Church became concerned.
The shrine of Our Lady of Fatima, only 50 kilometres away, was becoming a large
draw for people as the basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima was
completed in 1954, with pilgrims and tourists visiting the site in droves. To have
a “new apparition” of the Blessed Virgin Mary so close by, in Asseiceira, would
possibly have detracted people from going to Fatima.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Also,
with these alleged apparitions, there would have had to be a lengthy, formal
investigation conducted by the Church of Portugal, which would have required a
lot of time and effort on their part when, at the time, they were busy with
promoting the Fatima phenomenon. During this time, Portugal was headed by a
dictatorship under Prime Minister Antonio Salazar, who felt it was the
government’s duty approve things such as books, plays, and the overall media,
before being made available to the public. Anything that was not approved, was
removed. The head of the Catholic Church in Portugal at the time was Cardinal
Gonçalves Cerejeira, who as it happened, was friends with the Prime Minister
since boyhood. It had been said that Cardinal Cerejeira asked the Prime
Minister to put a halt to the people gathering for the apparitions at
Asseiceira, to try and dissolve the popularity of these events. And so, the
newspapers who once reported on the apparitions were now prohibited from doing
so. The media was silenced on the matter. Any documentation of the apparitions
was to be surrendered to the authorities. But Salazar didn’t stop there.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">By the
October 16th apparition, the National Republican Guard (GNR) was deployed to
set up blockades on all roads leading to Asseiceira. This, however, did not
stop the pilgrims from walking through the fields to circumvent the
authorities.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">On the
night of December 15th the unusual waves of light in the sky returned, this
time accompanied by what appeared to be a sort of candlelight procession with
hundreds of little lights hovering over the town, headed towards the apparition
site. They rested around the little shrine Carlos Alberto had set up to welcome
the Virgin for her appearances.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Early the
next morning, citizens opened their doors to go about their usual bakery runs
only to find that Asseiceira was completely overrun with the GNR and the army!
The people were warned that they were not to go to the site of the apparitions
under threat of being arrested. As the time for the apparition drew near, the
sun began its now usual dance in the sky to announce the coming of the Virgin.
The soldiers stood arm in arm around the site to prevent people from going, but
they soon realized that they were outnumbered. 40,000 people marched to the
place Our Lady was to appear. The crowds pushed through the guards, while
praying peacefully, and after a while, realizing that their attempts were
futile, the soldiers decided to let the people be. There were guards at the
little shrine who had vandalized it, and they tried, unsuccessfully, to
extinguish the little lights that settled there the night before. Fearing the
massive crowd that was approaching, they laid down their guns and batons.
Neither soldier nor pilgrim was harmed. </span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Finally,
the Mother of the Redeemer arrived, this time accompanied by little angels –
who some say they saw. Our Lady descended and the little sparks of light that
kept vigil faded out in contrast to her brilliance. During the Virgin’s meeting
with Carlos Alberto, the sun began throwing off all shades of colour, tinting
the people with its rays (just as it did at Fatima in 1917). People were heard
to remark to one another in surprise: “You’re all purple!” and another “Woman!
You’re all yellow!” After some time spinning and changing colour, the sun
returned to its natural position in the sky. Our Lady concluded her visit and
returned to Heaven, leaving the people to process what had just taken place. </span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The final
apparition took place on January 16, 1955. This time, there were no outward
signs or spectacles for the people. Just a hushed silence as Our Lady spoke
with the boy. The final message given to Carlos Alberto was the same as the
pervious times: pray the Rosary, do good deeds, carry yourself well and observe
the ten commandments. (Our Lady also had a private message for the boy, sombre
in tone, which will be told further on).</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">After the
apparitions Carlos Alberto went on to complete his schooling. After this, he
got a job as a banker, and met his future wife Célia. Célia’s mother was
against their courtship as she had it in her mind that seers did not marry, and
her daughter was wasting her time with the young man who had seen Our Lady.
Persistent in their relationship, Carlos and Célia were engaged to be married
in the autumn of 1968. </span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Meanwhile,
Cardinal Cerejeira released a pastoral note which prohibited the faithful from
praying or worshipping at the apparition site under penalty of excommunication.
Because of this, the parish priest refused to marry the couple unless Carlos
Alberto recanted his story of the apparitions, which he would not do. And so,
it was in September of 1968 that Carlos Alberto and Célia were married in a
civil union. As time went by Carlos and Célia started a family, having two
children: João and Cristina.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The
sombre message given by Our Lady to Carlos Alberto during the final apparition
involved his son and himself: He was told that in the future he would father
two children, a boy, and a girl. Carlos Alberto would die as a young father,
and, shortly after, his son would die as well. The girl was to stay behind with
her mother. This all came to pass on November 9th, 1980 when Carlos Alberto and
his son João were in a car accident. The father died on the way to hospital,
while his son died six months later.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Though
the parish priest refused to grant a funeral Mass for Carlos Alberto, thousands
of people gathered at the apparition site where the casket was brought, to pray
for the repose of his soul. On that day, a solar miracle took place, much like
the ones in 1954, further confirmation for the people that Carlos Alberto had
truly spoken with the Mother of the Redeemer.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Years
later the prohibition and threat of excommunication was lifted from the
Asseiceira apparition site, with prayer and worship now being permitted there.</span></span></span></p><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Read

flourished in Portugal since its beginnings in 1139 right up till the 19<sup>th</sup>
century. However, it was during this time, that Freemasonry became popular and
the people rebelled against the Royals and the Catholic Church. By the end of
1910, the monarchy was overthrown, and the Catholic Church was openly attacked.
Under the new Portuguese Republic all Church properties were seized,
monasteries and convents were closed, religious Orders suppressed, the Jesuit
educators were expelled from the country, wearing of clerical clothing, habits,
and any other outward signs identifying one as being Catholic, was banned from
public view; religious holidays and feasts were no longer to be celebrated; and
the ringing of church bells was prohibited. The land that was once a loving
child of the Immaculate Queen, now rebelled against her.</span></span></div>

the persecutions culminated with the official separation of Church and State.
The man behind this Alfonso Costa, who served as Portugal’s Prime Minister
three times, boasted in his declaration:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">

Separation, in two generations Catholicism will be completely eliminated in
Portugal!”</span><i><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi;"></span></i></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">On September 3, 1914, one month after the start of
the First World War, Benedict XV ascended the Throne of St. Peter as the 258<sup>th</sup>
Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. The first four years of his seven-and-a-half-year
papacy was plagued with anxiety and frustration as he tried, unsuccessfully, to
bring about the end of the war which he dubbed “the suicide of civilized
Europe.” With encyclicals, public exhortations, and pleading with the forces of
all sides, Benedict did all that he could to try and bring the fighting to an
end.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Exhausting all efforts for peace, Pope Benedict XV then called upon the
Most Blessed Virgin Mary for assistance. In his May 5, 1917 letter to the
Cardinals, the Pope ordered that the invocation “Queen of Peace, pray for us”
be added to the official Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Litany of
Loreto:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">… And since all the graces which God deigns to bestow in pity upon men
are dispensed through the Most Holy Virgin, We urge that more then ever, in
this terrible hour, the trusting petitions of her most afflicted children be
directed to the august Mother of God.</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Hence, we direct Your Eminence to make known to all the Bishops of the
world that it is Our fervent desire that mankind turn to the Sacred Heart of
Jesus – the Throne of Grace – and that recourse to this Throne be made through
Mary. Accordingly, We ordain that there be placed in the Litany of the Blessed
Virgin the invocation: Queen of Peace, pray for us.</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">From every corner of the earth – from the majestic churches and the
humble chapels; from the mansions of the rich as well as from the huts of the
poor; from wherever dwells a faithful soul; from the bloodstained battlefields
and war swept seas, may this pious and ardent invocation arise to Mary, the
Mother of Mercy who is all-powerful in grace!</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">To Mary may be brought every anguished cry of mothers and wives, each
tear of innocent children, each longing of generous hearts! May her loving and
most generous solicitude be moved to obtain for this convulsed world the peace
so greatly desired! And may the ages yet to come remember the efficacy of
Mary’s intercession and the greatness of her blessings to her suppliants!</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Just five days after the Pope’s plea, Mary, Queen of Peace, answered. But
rather than answer directly to him, the Blessed Virgin was sent to an
unassuming Portuguese town called Barral. It was here where a humble shepherd
boy lived with his widowed mother and six siblings. The boy’s name was Severino
Alves, aged 10.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Severino was born in Barral, Parish of</span><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">
<span class="st">São João Batista de Vila Chã</span></span><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">, Ponte de Barca, on June 21, 1906. He was the son
of </span><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi;">António
Alves and Cecília Francisca Valente.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">On a clear day, May 10, 1917, at eight o’clock in
the morning, Severino was on his way to the hills with his sheep, praying the
Rosary, as he usually did while making his way, when he was startled by a
sudden flash of lightning and stopped in his tracks. After composing himself,
he was going to continue his way, but after a few steps he once again stopped.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">He beheld a Lady he did not recognize, sitting on
the side of the road near some rocks, with her hands clasped. She wore a white
dress with a blue mantle wrapped around her. But what was so striking about
this woman was that her entire body radiated light, with her face being the
most beautiful he had ever seen. Severino was awestruck by her light and her
beauty and he fell to the ground, unable to take his eyes off her. The Lady
then disappeared.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Later that day, Severino approached the parish
priest to tell him of the mysterious woman he had seen. The boy, though having
a good reputation in the town as he was known to be well behaved and loved by
the locals, was not initially believed by the priest. However, the prudent priest
listened carefully and patiently to the boy’s detailed story. Believing the boy
was sincere in his intentions, he instructed him to return to the place of the
vision and, if the Lady returned, ask her to speak.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">The next day, Friday, May 11, at eight o’clock in
the morning, Severino once again walked with his sheep to the hills. At the
same spot as the previous day, the Lady reappeared. She was seated, as before,
with hands clasped, wearing the same white dress and blue mantle, and still
radiating light.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Just as he did before, Severino fell to his knees.
As he gazed upon her, he worked up the courage to ask her to speak:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“Let she who didn’t speak yesterday, speak today.”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">The Lady smiled and replied with a voice that
sounded of laughter and singing mixed together, a voice more pleasing than
anything he had ever heard! </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“Do not be afraid, boy, it is I, the Blessed Virgin Mary. Tell the
shepherds of the mountains to pray the Rosary, let men and women once again pray
the ‘Star of Heaven’ which has been long forgotten, and tell them to approach
me in prayer: that I may come to the world and placate the war.”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">After saying this, and leaving Severino enough time
to answer: “Yes, my Lady”, she continued to speak; now looking to the side:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“Such beautiful buds, such beautiful bunches.”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">When Severino turned to see what she was looking
at, the Lady disappeared. He returned immediately to the town and told the people
what the Virgin Mary had said that she would help end the war if people prayed
the Rosary and resumed praying the forgotten prayer ‘Star of Heaven’, as in
years past. Since she spoke of the end of the war, the Virgin became known as
“Our Lady of Peace”.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">To the questions asked, the boy always answered in
the same way:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“If you want to believe, then believe. If you don’t want to believe,
then don’t. I did my duty in telling you what the Virgin instructed me to do.”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Throughout the year, 1917, Severino Alves was
interrogated by various priests of the Archdiocese of Braga about the two
apparitions of Our Lady of Peace at Barral. Severino recalled the experience:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“Of course, they tried to make me admit to lying. When I refused to
recant my story, they then began to threaten me with a beating. They then put
their hands on me. I told them ‘You can be assured that what I saw is what I
said. And what was told to me by the Lady is what I said. Now, go ahead and do
as you want with me.’”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Later that year, as the government continued to
fight against the Catholic Church in Portugal, Severino was advised by
authorities to deny everything he said he had seen, otherwise he might be
arrested.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“Oh! Never! Our Lady told me to tell everyone to pray the Rosary and the
‘Star of Heaven’ to bring an end to the war, and I will say I didn’t see
anything?! Never! I will never deny these words she spoke to me! Never! If you
want to arrest me then go ahead and arrest me, if they want to kill me, let
them kill me!”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Severino was later collected by the Archdiocese of
Braga, and taken to the Major Seminary of Braga, not to study, but simply to
stay there. He was regularly subjected to interrogations about the apparitions:
what he had seen and what he was told.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">He was then sent to the Jesuit Fathers’ College in
La Guardia, Galicia. He was there for two years against his will. He did not
believe he had a vocation to the religious life, and the only way he could
leave would be to run away. He made his escape one day, with the help of a
friend, and returned to Barral. He was left alone after this.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Like most of Barral’s youth, Severino went to
Lisbon seeking employment, where he found a job at a drug store. Sometime later
came the time to fulfill the Military Service. During the military physical
examination, it was found that he had typhus, and therefore would not be
allowed into the army, as he was most likely going to die soon. Years later Severino’s
daughter, Matilde, revealed that during her father’s illness, the Virgin came
to him once again:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 9.9pt 8pt 14.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“My father was dying from Typhus and he prayed to Our Lady of Peace
during this illness. She appeared to him and instructed him to drink a tea of
nettles and she would do the rest. He drank the tea and recovered the next
day.”</span></span></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Some time after his recovery, he married a lady
named Delfina, who was from the Parish of Sampriz, Ponte da Barca. They lived
in Lisbon for a short time and six months after the birth of their first
daughter, they left the city and returned to Barral, where they lived for ten
years.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #666666;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">In 1954 Severino was again interrogated about what
happened on May 10 and 11, 1917:</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">“I swear by my daughter’s health that what I said in 1917 has to be said
again, because it was all true.”</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Severino later returned to Lisbon where he once
again worked for his previous employer, at the drug store. For extra income, he
and his wife had a small vegetable garden. The profits from the sales of their
vegetables were offered to the building of the chapel of Our Lady of Peace in
Barral. The chapel was inaugurated and blessed on 15 September 1969. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">There was one final interview on January 3, 1985.
Severino once again held firm that he indeed saw the Virgin Mary at Barral and
that the message she gave him was the truth. He died ten days later. He is
buried in the Parish Cemetery of Barral.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-right: -4.25pt; text-align: justify;"><br /><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;"><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;"><span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"></span></span></span><span style="color: #0b5394;"><b><span style="font-family: "palatino linotype", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; mso-fareast-language: EN-CA;">Facebook Page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/OurLadyBarral">https://www.facebook.com/OurLadyBarral </a></span></b></span></span></span></div>
