SAINT JOSEPH, PATRON SAINT OF THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH AND OF ST.JOSEPH CHURCH, MACON, GA, PRAY FOR US!

This statue of St. Joseph has been at St. Joseph Church since the beginning, maybe dating to the late 1800's. It has been in the hallway behind the altar for countless years. Today it stands proudly next to the Sacred Heart Chapel, far left of the sanctuary from the congregation. The new pedestal was handcrafted by our parishioner, Mr. Jim Fontenot. We're grateful for that and grateful for Saint Joseph. During this time of crisis in the Church, no better prayer warrior for us! St. Joseph, Step Father of Jesus, Pray for us! I took this picture with my very own blackberry!

I had the opportunity prior to our Morning Mass this morning to view the detail and wonderful woodworking to the new pedestal. It is truly wonderful! Such skill!
