PLENARY INDULGENCE OFFERED EACH WEDNESDAY IN THIS YEAR OF ST. JOSEPH

Pope Francis on December 8th announced a special year dedicated to St. Joseph starting with the announcement and lasting through December 8, 2021, the feast of the Immaculate Conception. The special year marks the 150th anniversary of the proclamation of St. Joseph as the Patron of the Universal Church. The Apostolic Penitentiary also issued a decree granting special indulgences for the duration of the special year to celebrate the anniversary and “to perpetuate the entrustment of the whole Church to the powerful patronage of the Custodian of Jesus.” During this period, the faithful will have the opportunity to commit themselves “with prayer and good works, to obtain, with the help of St. Joseph, head of the heavenly Family of Nazareth, comfort and relief from the serious human and social tribulations that besiege the contemporary world today.” The decree notes that devotion to St. Joseph has grown extensively throughout the history of the Church, “which not only attributes to him high reverence after that of the Mother of God his spouse, but has also given him multiple patronages.” At the same time, the Magisterium of the Church continues to discover “old and new greatness in this treasure which is St. Joseph, like the master in the Gospel of Matthew who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old.” Therefore, the gift of indulgences granted through a decree of the Apostolic Penitentiary by mandate of the Holy Father “will be of great benefit to the perfect attainment of the appointed purpose.”

Conditions for the plenary indulgence The plenary indulgence is granted to the faithful under the usual conditions (sacramental confession, Eucharistic Communion, and prayer for the Pope’s intentions) to Christians who, with a spirit detached from any sin, participate in the Year of St. Joseph on these occasions and manners indicated by the Apostolic Penitentiary: – The plenary indulgence is granted to those who will meditate for at least 30 minutes on the Lord’s Prayer, or take part in a Spiritual Retreat of at least one day that includes a meditation on St. Joseph. “St. Joseph, an authentic man of faith, invites us”, the decree reads, “to rediscover our filial relationship with the Father, to renew fidelity to prayer, to listen and correspond with profound discernment to God’s will.” The indulgence can also be obtained by those who, following St. Joseph’s example, will perform a spiritual or corporal work of mercy. St. Joseph “encourages us to rediscover the value of silence, prudence, and loyalty in carrying out our duties,” the decree notes. The recitation of the Holy Rosary in families and among engaged couples is another way of obtaining indulgences, in order that “all Christian families may recreate the same atmosphere of intimate communion, love and prayer that was in the Holy Family.” - Everyone who entrusts their daily activity to the protection of St. Joseph, and every faithful who invokes the intercession of St. Joseph so that those seeking work can find dignifying work can also obtain the plenary indulgence. On 1 May 1955, Pope Pius XII instituted the feast of St. Joseph “with the intent that the dignity of work be recognized by all, and that it inspires social life and laws, based on the fair distribution of duties.” In addition to these, the Apostolic Penitentiary grants a plenary indulgence to the faithful who will recite any legitimately approved prayer or act of piety in honor of St. Joseph, for example, “To you, O blessed Joseph” especially on “March 19, on May 1, the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph [the Sunday between Christmas and New Year’s Day], on St. Joseph’s Sunday on the 19th of each month, and every Wednesday, a day dedicated to the memory of the saint according to the Latin tradition.” Amid the ongoing Covid-19 health crisis, the gift of the plenary indulgence is also extended to the sick, the elderly, the dying and those who are unable to leave their homes. They can obtain the plenary indulgences if they are detached from any sin and have the intention of fulfilling, as soon as possible, the three usual conditions and recite an act of piety in honor of St. Joseph, offering to God the pains and hardships of their lives.

Primera Lectura Mientras Moisés preparaba a los israelitas para establecerse y vivir en la Tierra Prometida, los instó a permanecer cerca de

los mandamientos y estatutos de Dios para convertirse en una "gran nación". ¿Por qué crees que tantas naciones se desvían de

esta idea?

Segunda Lectura En los primeros versículos de su carta, Santiago insta a sus

lectores a que "pongan en práctica esa palabra y no se limiten a escucharla,

engañándose a ustedes mismos." ¿Por qué crees que este es un

buen consejo?

Evangelio Volviendo al Evangelio de Marcos,

escuchamos hoy cómo los líderes religiosos de Jerusalén cuestionaron a

Jesús acerca de mantener "la tradición de sus mayores." Jesús respondió con la

importancia de tener un corazón limpio. ¿Por qué es este un ejercicio espiritual tan

desafiante?

First Reading: As Moses prepared the Israelites to settle and live in the Promised Land he urged them to stay close to God’s commandments and statutes in order to become a “great nation.” Why do you think so many nations stray from this idea? Second Reading: In the opening verses of his letter, James urges his readers to be “doers of the word and not hearers only, deluding yourselves.” Why do you think this is wise advice? Gospel: In returning to the Gospel of Mark, we hear today how the religious leaders from Jerusalem questioned Jesus about keeping “the tradition of the elders.” Jesus responded with the importance of being clean of heart. Why is this such a challenging spiritual exercise?
