Feast of Saint Joseph the Worker

All Day
May 1, 2025

We traditionally celebrate the Feast of Saint Joseph as the husband of The Blessed Virgin Mary on March 19.

In the former Soviet Union, May 1 was International Workers' Day and was celebrated with huge parades in cities like Moscow

On May 1, 1955, in an address to the Catholic Association of Italian Workers, Pope Pius XII confronted the growing concerns posed by communism and its socialist philosophy on human labor and family life by instituting the Feast of Saint Joseph the Worker, which we celebrate every year on May 1.
