St. Patrick & St. Joseph, Pray for Us! (March 17 + 19)



In the middle of March, we celebrate two great saints in the Catholic Church: St. Patrick (March 17th) and St. Joseph, spouse of Mary and father to Jesus (March 19th).

St. Patrick : English-born and kidnapped by pirates at the age of 16, Patrick eventually escaped his slavery in Ireland to later return as a priest, converting many and becoming the island's patron saint.

St. Joseph : the upright carpenter betrothed to Mary who remained faithful to God and served as guardian and protector of the Son of God.

Both of these figures stubbornly sought the will of God, even in the face of unexpected suffering. May both these two men and all the holy saints of the Church intercede for us on our earthly journey this Lent!

Check out this video on the importance of both St. Patrick and St. Joseph in this video from Bishop Barron:

Jesus' Healing Balm - Sunday, March 15th



Sunday, March 15, 2026 | Fourth Sunday of Lent | John 9:1–41 (or 9:1, 6–9, 13–17, 34–38)

Friends, today in the strange and strikingly beautiful account of the healing of the man born blind in John’s Gospel, we find an iconic representation of Christianity as a way of seeing. Jesus spits on the ground and makes a mud paste, which he then rubs onto the man’s eyes. When the man washes his eyes in the pool of Siloam as Jesus had instructed him, his sight is restored.
The crowds are amazed, but the Pharisees—consternated and skeptical—accuse him of being naïve and the one who healed him of being a sinner. With disarming simplicity the visionary responds: “If he is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know is that I was blind and now I see.”
This is precisely what all Christians say when they have encountered the light of Christ. It was St. Augustine who saw in the making of the mud paste a metaphor for the Incarnation: the divine power mixing with the earth, resulting in the formation of a healing balm. When this salve of God made flesh is rubbed onto our eyes blinded by sin, we come again to see.

Bishop Robert Barron
