St. Joseph in the Canon of the Mass
Joseph A. Komonchak June 22, 2013 - 10:52am
Now that Pope Francis has directed that St. Joseph's name be added to the other three eucharistic prayers, it's worth recalling how the saint's name was introduced into the Roman Canon by Pope John XXIII.
At the discussion of the schema on the liturgy at the first session of Vatican II, at least three bishops proposed that St. Joseph's name be added to the Canon of the Mass. One of them was Bishop Peter Čule from Mostar, Yugoslavia, whose health had been seriously compromised by his having been sentenced to eleven years of hard labor in one of Tito's show trials in 1948. As he made his plea for St. Joseph at the Council, he wandered and began to repeat himself, and Cardinal Ruffini, who was presiding that day, finally interrupted him: "I ask you please conclude your very pious sermon. I am sure that we are all very devoted to St. Joseph," a remark greeted by laughter in the council hall. This rude treatment of a bishop who had suffered severely for the faith under the Communists is said to have irritated Pope John and prompted him to announce three days later, on November 13, 1962, that he had decided that St. Joseph's name was to be inserted into the Canon. For at least 150 years petitions had been sent to Rome for this action, the most recent of which, presented in six volumes to the Pope in March 1962, appears to have persuaded John XXIII to intervene.
Reactions to this move by the Pope were varied.
Robert Kaiser quoted one theologian as saying, "Half the world doesn't even believe in God and we worry about St. Joseph." Yves Congar used it as an occasion to raise questions about modern Catholic devotionalism. In his Council diary he wrote:
The problem is not the fact of having put St. Joseph into the Canon: he is worth far more than Saints Chrysogonus and John and Paul, who may not even have existed. The problem is rather that, while the Council is in session, and when that Council is discussing the liturgy, the Pope, on his own authority, decides something (the appropriateness of which is at least questionable). Good Pope John keeps on combining some lovely gestures with others that are regrettable or retrograde.
Karl Barth had fewer difficulties however, saying that he himself preferred to compare the Church to St. Joseph rather than to the Blessed Virgin.
Joseph, in my opinion, in his relation to Christ, played the same role as the Church should exercise. The Roman Church, I know, prefers to compare her role to that of Mary, which was more glorious. She brings the Gospel message to the world in the same way that Mary gave us the Christ. But the comparison is fallacious. The Church cannot give birth to the Redeemer, but she can and must serve Him with discreet and humble zeal. This was specifically the role of Joseph, who always remained in the background, leaving all the glory to Jesus. This must also be the role of the Church if we want the world to rediscover the splendor of the Word of God (quoted in Antoine Wenger, Vatican II. Volume I: The First Session (Westminster, Md.: Newman Press, 1966), p. 72).
Douglas Horton, dean of Harvard Divinity School and delegate-observer of the International Congregationalist Council, faithfully kept a very informative diary in which he made this record:
One of the signs of the vitality of this old Roman church is (as I have observed before) the delight that its priests take in telling stories on themselves and the ways of Rome. The current saying that is floating about is to the effect that, now that St. Joseph's name has been included in the canon of the mass, we shall presently have promulgated a doctrine of the assumption of the blessed St. Joseph, to parallel the doctrine of the assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary--that is, of course, direct assumption into heaven--and this on the theological basis that the family that prays together stays together! (Vatican Diary 1962, p. 128.)
(It may be necessary (sigh) to explain the joke. "The family that prays together stays together" was one of the slogans of the Family Rosary Crusade launched by Fr. Patrick Peyton, C.S.C., a notable part of popular Catholic consciousness before the Council.)
Commenting Guidelines
Here's a good (imho) web site that gives the dates of various forms of recognition of St. Joseph (inclusion in the Divine Praises, etc.) throughout Church history.
It would be nice if more was taught about the life of Joseph -- what it meant to be a "carpenter" in his day, how assiduously he fulfilled an observant Jew's role in bringing up his children, etc., etc.
I like Karl Barth's quote and the theological reasoning behind it. The role of St. Joseph has been underdeveloped both in tradition and even scripture. I personally, tend to agree with the Eastern tradition that Joseph was an older man and a widower and that the siblings of Jesus were Joseph's by a previous marriage. I also think this accounts for Mary's perplexity on becoming pregnant. As delicate as this may be, it may point to the fact that Joseph was not able to perform in a way that could produce a child and Mary, no doubt knew this. However, he was a righteous man and was anxious to protect Mary's reputation and virtue when it was discovered that she was pregnant. He was, no doubt, a very honourable man. And being older, he could pass on to Jesus, the kind of wisdom that only accrues with age and experience.
"I personally, tend to agree with the Eastern tradition that Joseph was an older man and a widower and that the siblings of Jesus were Joseph's by a previous marriage."
There are many who agree that the sound of hoofbeats indicates zebras rather than horses.
The notion that Mary and Joseph were real people -- Jews -- with real ancestors and real children is repugnant to many.
Fr. K., Thanks for the slice of history. More men that I would l have imagined (I am learning in my old age) share a devotion to St. Joseph that is as strong as the devotion to Mary that is generally imputed to Catholics. There is not a lot of scripture or theology on which to build such devotion, but these are not the kind of guys to refer to the New Jerome Biblical Commentary or Denzinger, or even know what they are, before they take to prayer. What they do know is that Joseph led a familly in difficult times, and they can strongly identify with that. They will be happy about Pope Francis' action.
It is not repugnant to me. We can certainly reflect on the evidence presented even on a purely human level.
One central fact remains, and is clear and evident from scripture. Mary was pregnant and Joseph was not the father. The authors of Luke and Matthew each handled that in different ways. There is not disagreement on that central point.
That Joseph would support Mary, and a child that he knew full well was not his own is pretty heroic by any standards. I know very, very few men who would do that. And, I would suspect, even less in the ancient world. Or if there were other children, Jesus, would have been identified as the bastard child and that would have stunted his development and he certainly would not have grown into the man he was.
Even, in our so called enlightened society, a woman with children from multiple fathers is not exactly a catch and certainly not someone who would be respected or revered in the community. I am not saying that is right, just, or even kind. I am just saying that is they way it is.
None of that happened and that, no doubt, has a lot to do with Joseph. From where I sit, Joseph is a very good, honourable, and righteous man. Oh that there were more "real" men like him today!
Like Son, Like Step-Father?
We are so often strongly influenced by the thoughts. words and attitudes of our parents. (" I remember, my father always used to say . . ."). The following excerpt from Martyn Percy's lecture to Inclusive Church a few days ago offers some hints about Jesus' upbringing.
[Jesus'] childhood, I think, had probably taught him a thing or two about people, society and God. He grew up in occupied territories, so had seen the good and bad side of that coin – oppression traded off against organisation. His childhood had included a sojourn in Egypt. And we know that by working in Joseph's trade – carpentry and building (Gk. tekton) – he had, by living in Nazareth, been exposed to the nearby Roman settlement of Sepphoris. This was a Hellenized community of almost 30,000 in Jesus' childhood, compared to the population of Nazareth, which boasted a mere 300. So Nazareth was a dormitory village supplying labour to a much larger cosmopolitan community nearby. It would have been full of Gentiles of every kind. So, from an early age, Jesus would have been exposed to a world beyond his native parochial Judaism.
The theatre at Sepphoris seated 5,000. It is almost certain that Joseph took Jesus. For Jesus, in his adult life, uses the Greek word 'hypocrite' quite a few times, which simply means 'actor' – one who is masked, and playing a part. What is significant about this, I think, is this. Jesus' Kingdom of God project, was, from the outset, supra-tribal. It reached out beyond Judaism to the Gentiles. Indeed, he often praised gentiles for their faith, and often scolded the apparently 'orthodox' religion of his kith and kin for its insularity and purity. Jesus saw that God was for everyone; he lived, practised and preached this.

The last stanza-
I am Joseph who wanted
To teach my own boy how to live.
My lesson for my foster son:
Endure. Love. Give.
Recently at a family funeral, one of my cousins told me this story.
His middle name is Timothy and he wanted to take that name for Confirmation, but the Sister assigned him Joseph. When he protested (very courageous and he wansn't even confirmed yet) Sister told him that St Joseph was special because he died in the arms of Joseph.
Sister Mary Wood, that lecture is kind of nuts. For one thing, it is exploiting the blank slate that is Jesus`life as a youth in order to postulate a de-Judaized Jesus, which is apparently supposed to be more attractive. Nobody knows anything about Joseph, or if he existed, or what he and Jesus did, and saying things like it's "almost certain" Joseph took Jesus to the theatre in Sephora just steamrolls that lack of knowledge in to let Joseph "rescue" Jesus from "parochial," "apparently orthodox" Judaism. And there's no way that Martyn Percy does not know that the Greek hypokritēs is hardly a word that Jesus--if he knew it--would have used in addressing his audiences. I guess if you don't know anything about someone, then you can make them respresent anything you want.
I'm glad we bumped up St Joseph, even if we don't know much about him; his "Yes" was just as courageous as Mary's.
My grandmother, who had a saint for every occasion, told me St Jospeh was the one you prayed to for "a good death".
Well, I doubt that Joseph (an observant Jew) took the family to see plays (pagan) at the theater at Sepphoris, but it's very possible that Joseph and his sons worked on the various building sites at Sepphoris, including, maybe, the theater. And if they worked there, maybe they observed actors in rehearsal.
"A man may be passing through a street when they are burning incense to an idol, and he has no wish to smell the incense, but his nose forces him to do so. So, too, his eye brings him sinful sights, and his ear blasphemous words, against his will, for they too are not under his control." --Rabbi Levi
If there are great difficulties in the quest for the historical Jesus and even greater ones for the mother of Jesus, they are ten times greater for his putative father. Beyond the very few things said about Joseph in the NT, it is all so much speculation, hardly more credible than the details presented by Anne Catherine Emmerich.
Agree that everything about Jesus, Mary, and Joseph is speculative. We don't even know that Joseph was a carpenter. Jesus was, according to the neighbors in Mark, but nowhere does it say Joseph was. And even his genealogy in Matthew is different from the one in Mark. So we're free to make of him what we want/need.
(Not familiar with the writings of Emmerich. Private revelations, stigmata, anti-Semitism? Another of JPII's questionable beatifications/canonizations?)
(Sorry, I meant the genealogy in LUKE, not Mark.)
Joseph is one among a list of saints in the Roman Canon, but is bumped to excessive prominence by being added to the other EPs. I dislike this gesture, another pastiche of J23, and in the same lowbrow style as his amazing dismissal of Beethoven's Ninth as music for idlers and renaissance princes.
Joseph S. O'Leary,
So, you think that St. Joseph is "bumped to excessive prominence".
I am sure that Jesus and Mary are not amused.
I am guessing that your patron saint is St. Joseph of Cupertino?
FYI, Joseph S. O'Leary:
Joseph of Cupertino, O.F.M. Conv. (Italian: San Giuseppe da Copertino) (June 17, 1603 – September 18, 1663) was an Italian Franciscan friar who is honored as a Christian mystic and saint. He was said to have been remarkably unclever, but prone to miraculous levitation and intense ecstatic visions that left him gaping. He is recognized as the patron saint of air travelers, aviators, astronauts, people with a mental handicap, test takers, and poor students. He was canonized in 1767. (from Wikipedia)
"I dislike this gesture, another pastiche of J23, and in the same lowbrow style as his amazing dismissal of Beethoven's Ninth as music for idlers and renaissance princes."
Sounds like a snore. It was planned before Francis's election. See John Allen in NCR this morning:
"Though no one quite said so out loud, the event seemed conceived with the famously music-loving Benedict XVI in mind. The piece was Beethoven's Ninth, and all the vocalists chosen to perform from Italy's Academy of Santa Cecilia were German."
They should plan an evening of tango for Francis. See, e.g., this morning's NYT:
See also:
John Allen's illogical comparison between Benedict's non-attendance at a pop culture Christmas concert in 2005 apparently because it was not his "cup of tea" and the non-attendance of Francis at this concert because he had more pressing concerns to deal with.
Only bloggers who cannot hide their disdain for this new pope, e.g. Fr. Z., insinuate that Francis was rude and showing disapproval of the concert.
"Perhaps this is part of his continuing deconstruction of the papal person: listening to concerts of classical music (this time, Beethoven's 9th Symphony) is not what El Pueblo does, thus he doesn't do it." (Fr. Z's Blog)
For what it's worth, I am happy with the inclusion of St. Joseph in the Canon of the Mass.Eeverything said about him in the Infancy Narratiives deserves honor. And the unstressed but to be presumed Jewisheness of Joseph is by no means a trivial matter.
It appears that, when St. Joseph was added to the Roman Canon, it was to the prayer of thanksgiving before the institution narrative - the list of saints that also includes Linus, Cletus, Clement, Sixtus et al. It seems that what we praying for in this passage is that we offer the sacrifice in communion with Mary, Joseph and these other listed saints whose memory we especially venerate.
No saints' names are invoked in the parallel passages in EPs II and III. Mary is named in the parallel passage in EP IV, but not in such a way that would admit Joseph without a bit of wordsmithing: "... in the fullness of time you sent your Only Begotten Son to be our Savior. Made incarnate by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, he shared our human nature in all things but sin." How Joseph figures into that passage is not immediately evident; I'd think some new idea would need to be introduced in order to include him.
So I am guessing that Joseph won't be wedged into those thanksgiving passages. I assume that, under this new directive, St. Joseph will be added to the place where Mary is currently invoked in II-IV, along with apostles and martyrs: after the Institution Narrative, in the intercessory section. EP I has a parallel section (that second list of saints: John the Baptist, Stephen, Matthias, Barnabas et al), but neither Mary nor Joseph appears in that list.
So I guess what I take away from all this is that St. Joseph will be added to the other Eucharistic Prayers, but not precisely in the same way as he had previously been added to EP 1. I guess the point is just to get him in. I'm happy to have him, either way.
I meant to include, in my previous comment, this link that helpfully shows the parallels between the four main Eucharistic Prayers.
(For some reason, the icons that enable quoting, linking and so on, aren't available to me at the moment.)
Joseph is not important enough to be mentioned in Mark and John. He doesn't even have a speaking part in Matthew and Luke, and the historicity of the infancy narratives is dubious. All Joseph actually does in Matthew is obey instructions he gets in dreams. He does virtually nothing noteworthy in Luke. Jesus never says a word about Joseph.
Exactly how Catholicism can construct a saint to be venerated out of such slim material is difficult for me to understand, so the idea of "bumping him up" is doubly bewildering.
It seems to me that the reason St. Joseph now has such a devoted following is because the faithful have found through their own exeeriences and prayers that St. Joseph is a powerhouse in Heaven. Prayers to St. Joseph are often answered when prayers to lesser saints are not. This is a case in which the living Tradition speaks louder than Scripture.
<i>Prayers to St. Joseph are often answered when prayers to lesser saints are not.</i>
Is there a list of saints ranked by which answer more prayers? And where do the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit rank? Is praying directly to Jesus more or less effective than praying to, say, the Holy Spirit or St. Joseph?
Since answers to prayers of petition are ultimately answered by God (or at least that is my understanding), and since prayers to anyone other than God are prayers requesting intersession with God, does God play favorites? Is he more likely to grant a request to a "greater" saint than to a "lesser" saint? Does anyone suppose that if a person sincerely prays, he or she is less likely to get a satisfactory answer from St. Kieran of Saigir than from St. Francis of Assisi?
It strikes me as a very odd thought that one can pray to the wrong saint.
In fact I"m not one to pray much to any of the saints, not even Mary. But it seems to me from all I've heard and read that the tradition of praying to saints is one of the strongest Catholic ones (so strong that it is a defining one), and those who do pray a lot to saints are convinced that at least sometimes it makes a difference, and that whom you pray is important.
Why do you think that the whole prayer system is so outlandish? Do you think that saints lose their humanity in Heaven? Or that they don't really hear us when we address them? You must have a very impersonal idea of saints -- and of God too, for that matter.
I have always liked the nativity icon. It shows, St. Joseph, an older man assailed by doubts. The older man next to him is Satan who continues to put doubts in his mind. Mary looks over at Joseph, understanding his anguish, and her prayers help overcome his doubts.
Earlier in this string (June 23, 32:48 p.m.) even the historical reality of St. Joseph was being treated as an open question. Just don't tell that to my old pals who talk to him and hear his answers. Lately David NIckol has taken the position that Joseph may be real, but he may not be all that important. But see Ann Oliver at 3:55 today.
I don't particularly want to debate Joseph's existence with scripture scholars. But I am not going to deny the evidence of my old pals' senses, either.
Tom B. --
I totally agree that other people's religious experiences (or what they *say* are their experiences) have to be taken into account when judging these things. Yes, no doubt some people are fooling themselves, some stretch the exact truth, etc., etc., but the preponderance of evidence is that prayers to saints do indeed make a difference in many people's lives.
How sad that small miracles are now thought to be highly unlikely and that the saints play no part in our redemption. Yes, it is miraculous that a dead person should "hear" a live person's prayer. But all our existences are miraculous in the first place. And how mean of God if He fooled us into thinking that prayer is possible.

Why do you think that the whole prayer system is so outlandish?
My point was not that I think prayer to the saints is outlandish. (I may think that, but that was definitely not the point that I was making.) What I thought was outlandish was that praying to St. Joseph got better results than praying to a "lesser" saint.
Do you think that saints lose their humanity in Heaven?
I can't for the life of me figure out what a disembodied soul would be like, but Fr. Komonchak has told us that Aquinas said, "Abraham's soul is not Abraham." But I don't think this is the place to get into it.
Or that they don't really hear us when we address them?
Well, that is a good question. Do all saints hear everything that goes on in the minds of all living humans? I have always had the impression that if the saints do hear prayers addressed to them, it is because God sees to it that prayers addressed to saints are "delivered."
You must have a very impersonal idea of saints -- and of God too, for that matter.
Someone once told me that Catholic heaven has a certain resemblance to the Roman Empire. In the Roman Empire, you did favors for others; others did favors for you. It was often a matter of "it's not what you know, but who you know." I must admit that I think it is kind of wacky to think that praying to St. Joseph or the Virgin Mary is more effective because they have more "pull" with God than lesser saints. I don't imagine Mary saying to God, "David Nickol has asked me to arrange for him to win the lottery. I am asking you to let him. And, you know, I am the Queen of Heaven."
Just don't tell that to my old pals who talk to him and hear his answers.
Tom Blackburn,
I have read a great deal of testimony on various web sites that if your house is on the market, it will sell much faster if you bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard. (Some say the statue must be buried up side down.) You don't even have to be Catholic!
Who am I to say it doesn't work? Why would they lie? It must be true.
Is it right that a pope can change the liturgy by simple fiat? What happened to collegiality
The cult of St Joseph is used to bring back old-fashioned privatized and sentimentalized piety, which finds the Eucharistic Prayers too dry for its purposes. The pope appealed to popular devotion in his very first words after his election, and is unlikely to do much to renew a deeper biblical sensibility among Catholics.
And of course this is yet another distraction, more panis et circenses for the crowd, not a step to any authentic Christian renewal of the ailing church.
Will he bring back the prayers to St Michael at the end of mass, as many have demanded? He's the pope, so he can do anything he likes, as his predecessor showed in declaring that the 1962 liturgy had never been rescinded, including the prayers for the "perfidious Jews"..
It would be interesting to explore what the folks here believe Heaven is -- and isn't. If it's the dehumanized place some here seem to think it is, I can' imagine wanting to go there (whatever "there" means in this context). Sure, God is the main thing and the best of Heaven will be the no-doubt mystical union with Him, but surely there will be re-unions with loved ones and maybe introductions to some other people, not to mention angels. And if that's possible, then why assume that those who have gone before have lost interest in us "down here"? And if they haven't lost interest in us, why wouldn't God make prayer possible?
I'm constantly amazed at how some in the younger generations will buy the possibilities presented by science fiction and yet can't bring themselves to believe that God can not only dream up different sorts of worlds and our relationships with them but also make them happen. Is God infinitely loving and creative or not?
The Communion of Saints is a very beautiful as well as ancient doctrine, which we enact when we pray to and through the saints or when we pray for our lost ones (or pray to them, as some are able to do). "He is not the God of the dead but of the living" so we may hope and trust that in some way Abraham and all the other departed live to God. I only say mass in English for old sisters who have been spared the horrible new translation, and I suppose we no longer have the beautiful words, "who have gone before us, marked with the sign of faith. May these and all who sleep in Christ find in your presence light, happiness, and peace". (No chance of Francis addressing the translation fiasco, since Pell is one of his right hand mend)
If we seek a providence for the darkness over futurity, find it in the impossibility of living this world if it were a transparent antechamber to the next.
I'm constantly amazed at how some in the younger generations will buy the possibilities presented by science fiction and yet can't bring themselves to believe that God can not only dream up different sorts of worlds and our relationships with them but also make them happen.
Here's what C. S. Lewis said about heaven in A Grief Observed:
. . . . But don't come talking to me about the consolation of religion or I shall suspect that you don't understand.
Unless, of course, you can literally believe all that stuff about family reunions "on the further shore," pictured in entirely earthly terms. But that is all unscriptural, all out of bad hymns and lithographs. There's not a word of it in the Bible. And it rings false. We know it couldn't be like that. Reality never repeats. The exact same thing is never taken away and given back. How well the Spiritualists bait their hook! "Things on the other side are not so different after all." There are cigars in Heaven. For that is what we should all like. The happy past restored. . . .
I have no idea what heaven is like, or even if there is a heaven, but it seems to me what you envision is just a simple extension of life as we know it. I have been to only one really formal family reunion. It had it's good side and its bad side, and I don't think I would want to spend all eternity in a similar situation—especially because one of the best things was the food, which would be of little use to a disembodied soul.
Of course, as almost always happens in discussions of the afterlife, we seem to be forgetting that "heaven" isn't the final destination. Heaven is a temporary holding place for disembodied souls until the resurrection of the dead.
Exactly how disembodied souls are supposed to recognize each other, I am not sure. I'm not not all that good with faces, pretty bad with names, and doubt that I will recognize disembodied souls.
As I said, it has been noted that Catholic heaven is a lot like the Roman Empire. I need a favor from someone Very Important, so I go to someone more important than me and ask them to intercede with the VIP for me. It's really not very imaginative at all.
He's the pope, so he can do anything he likes, as his predecessor showed in declaring that the 1962 liturgy had never been rescinded, including the prayers for the "perfidious Jews"..
Yes, he's the pope, and he has wide authority and latitude to amend the liturgy.
But your comment about "perfidious Jews" is incorrect. John XXIII had the word translated as "perfidious" stricken from the missal in 1959. What's more, in response to some hullaballoo in the wake of Benedict's decision to permit the 1962 missal to be used more widely, Benedict had that particular prayer revised again. Here is the text to be used when the 1962 missal is used for Good Friday celebrations:
Let us also pray for the Jews: That our God and Lord may illuminate their hearts, that they acknowledge Jesus Christ is the Savior of all men. (Let us pray. Kneel. Rise.) Almighty and eternal God, who want that all men be saved and come to the recognition of the truth, propitiously grant that even as the fullness of the peoples enters Thy Church, all Israel be saved. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen
Here is how it read in 1955:
Let us pray also for the faithless Jews: that almighty God may remove the veil from their hearts; so that they too may acknowledge Jesus Christ our Lord. Let us pray. Let us kneel. [pause for silent prayer] Arise. Almighty and eternal God, who dost not exclude from thy mercy even Jewish faithlessness: hear our prayers, which we offer for the blindness of that people; that acknowledging the light of thy Truth, which is Christ, they may be delivered from their darkness. Through the same our Lord Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen
Here is how it reads in the current missal (Roman Missal 3rd edition):
Let us pray also for the Jewish people, to whom the Lord our God spoke first, that he may grant them to advance in love of his name and in faithfulness to his covenant. [Prayer in slience. Then the Priest says:] Almighty ever-living God, who bestowed your promises on Abraham and his descendants, graciously hear the prayers of your Church, that the people you first made your own may attain the fullness of redemption. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
There are cigars in Heaven.
If smokers in heaven are not treated like pariahs, I shall rejoice in God's justice.
I can't remember ever having been charged with being a sentimentalist or a romantic, but even so, I find the views that David NIkol and Fr. O'Leary express here, though they obviously differ with each other's, pretty bloodless, bordering on "Angelism." Read the psalms, read Francis of Assissi, John of the Cross, Bernard of Clairvaux and listen to the hymns and religious songs of the American black community. Are we to ditch all of that because it doesn't pass the muster of some supposedly rigid norm, liturgical or historical, that is supposed to "sanitize" our religious life?
Thanks, but no thanks.
No cigars in heaven and no beer according to the German song, "Im Himmel gibt's kein Bier"
In heaven there is no beer
That's why we drink it here...
I'd be interested to hear what you think of the C. S. Lewis quote.
I am not sure I understand what you are saying, but if we're talking about what heaven will be like, it will definitely be "bloodless." I am no expert on the Psalms, but I don't think they tell us what the afterlife is supposed to be like, since there was little concept of the afterlife at the time the Psalms date to.
My point in response to Ann was intended to be the popular conception of heaven didn't seem very imaginitive to me. And even if we believe in praying to saints and having them intercede for us, the idea that you have a better chance of getting what you pray for if you pray to a prominent saint rather than a lesser-well-known one strikes me as repugnant.
If there is a heaven, nobody has the vaguest idea what the experience of it will be like. And of course if the whole traditional conception of heaven <i>and</i> hell is correct, the big family reunion will undoubtedly be missing some relatives, who will have gone to hell (although word is it won't bother you if your wife, or son, or daughter, or mother, or father is in hell).
If smokers in heaven are not treated like pariahs, I shall rejoice in God's justice.
Perhaps smokers can be treated differently in heaven, since you won't be able to get cancer and any number of other diseases from breathing their second-hand smoke in the afterlife.
David Nickol (way back at 12:28 a.m.). At one of our more prominent parishes of this diocese, the religious goods store manager refused to stock St. Joseph statues for home sales. There are some that come in a special kit for that purpose. The real estate agents of the town -- a very upscale group noted for their late model luxury cars and nor conpuicuous on their knees at Guadaloupe -- went to the pastor in more than high dudgeon and demanded either St. Joseph back on the racks or the manager's head on a platter. To his credit, the pastor consulted with the manager and then told the real estate boys to back off.
I see that as a story in the annals of business, not of superstition.
On the other hand... a friend had his cabin, in a Bible-belt Protestant area of the country, on the market for two months without a look. He buried St. Joseph in the yard and came home. When he got home there was a phone call with an offer. The agent said the lookers walked in and said the house had "the aura of a Catholic home" and they wanted it.
Maybe now priests and bishops and theologians will talk about Matthew 27:52. Was Joseph one of those saints who were raised from their tombs and appeared to many in Jerusalem?
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
Gerelyn: Here's a poem that says he was among the saints liberated by Christ on Holy Saturday:
Just beautiful. Thank you, Joseph.
Matthew 13:55 refers to Jesus as "the carpenter's son".
NAB: Is he not the carpenter's son?
RSV: Is not this the carpenter's son?
David ==
Of course we don't know exactly what Heaven will be like -- "Eye has not seen. . ." But if it will lack the good things of this world, including those I love (including my cats, by the way) then it will be a disappointment. How we and they will exist and communicate is another question.
(I don't remember Lewis believing at the end that he wouldn't be united again with his beloved. Where does he say that? I can't find my copy.)
As far as one saint being more efficatious than another, why wouldn't that be the case? Surely God loves some people more than He loves me -- I mean the holy ones and for good reason too! It's right that He love them more -- there is more to them TO love. And, yes, I would definitely expect that, because they are more loving people, that He would be more likely to grant their requests. (Sure, we're brought up to believe that parents love their children equally, and in some sense I'm sure that's true. But some kids are more lovable than others, and that's the hell behind sibling rivalry that we don't like to admit.)
I say all of this about God analogically -- no one can know thoroughly what God is and how He acts or, especially, why He does. Whatever His reasons, He is beyond this world, beyond justice, and beyond what we in our tiny way consider to be goodness. However, this does not imply that the tiny goods that we do know already are not in some way like Him. And He has made us to love *everything* that is good, infinite or tiny. That He would ultimately deny us the small goods that we naturally love is beyond belief to me. The company of loved ones is what we love naturally, so the thought that in the end we won't want the company of our loved ones is just nonsense. The whole thrust of Christianity is to love *both* God and creatures. Why would that stop in Heaven, whatever Heaven is?
Thanks, Frank. Sorry for the mistake. I was thiking it said that somewhere, but when I looked it up on Blue Letter Bible, I just typed in "carpenter," no apostrophe, no s. I guess it's more sensitive than I realized.
Glad to know a gospel tells us Joseph was a carpenter. Jewish parents circumcized their sons, redeemed them, taught them Torah, taught them a trade, found them wives, (and, some say, taught them to swim).
It would be odd for a non-carpenter to teach his sons to be carpenters. It must have been a nice life for the family with the building boom going on in Sepphoris.
I like this picture of Joseph and Jesus:

The Young Professional Woman

Looking Professional
Saving Time and Money at Work
The Working Woman Wardrobe
You have a job you enjoy and work hard at it, and the last thing you want to do is throw your money away just getting yourself ready and into the office. By the time you buy clothes, shoes, accessories, skin care, cosmetics, shampoos and hair products, go for haircuts, eyebrow waxing, manicures, pedicures, facials, etc., your paycheck could be practically depleted. So what is the practical compromise that gets you looking and feeling like a professional without spending every dime you make? Read on for ways to spend less on getting ready for work.
1. Shopping for clothes
Make a list of what you now have, and what pieces you are looking for. If you do not want to shop at Goodwill, there are many consignment stores that have both classic and trendy clothing for excellent prices. Get to know the ones in your area. Shopping for off-season clothes provides the best savings of all if you are shopping in a department store. Never pay full retail for anything, including formal wear. When entering any section of a women's department, shop the "C" word first (Clearance), followed by the "S" word (Sale). After the holiday season, many department stores have fall and winter fashions priced 50-80 percent off. There are still three more months of winter at this point, so it is an excellent time to buy.
2. Skin Care, Makeup and Hair
Some experts believe that the key ingredients in skin care creams, lotions, cleansers, etc. are basically the same in the lower priced items as in the higher end department stores. Why spend $100 on a moisturizer when you can get the same quality at your local pharmacy cosmetics aisle for $7.99? You think you need some under eye cream? A light coating of petroleum jelly worn while you sleep will do the trick, and save quite a bit of green.
The same cost saving ideas should be transferred to makeup, shampoos and conditioners. And why have a professional color your hair? The secret is actually picking a color that is flattering to you, so solicit some help from someone you trust. If you have longer hair, get two boxes, and once again, use your local department store aisle to compare prices, use coupons and shop the specials. Every week there is a brand on sale. Shampoos and conditioners will clean and moisturize your hair whether they cost 99 cents per bottle or $9.99, so why would you want to pay more?
3. Accessories
A few classic pieces are all you need for work. With all of the beautiful costume styles that flatter everyone, does it really feel better if it is real? Wouldn't you rather have your money in the bank than around you neck or in your ears? Have a few necklaces in both gold and silver, a few earrings (not too large or low) and a watch that works, and you are set. The best place for finding jewelry cheap is at church yard sales, fairs or bazaars. It is like raiding your mother or grandmother's jewelry box without the guilt, because you are generally helping out an organization that is helping others.
You will need bras and underwear that fits. That does not mean that they have to be expensive. Well-made and comfortable are the way to go, since you will have them on your body all day and most of the night. A good, flattering bra that wears well under all of your tops does not have to be a designer style. Over two-thirds of women are wearing the wrong size bra, so get some expert help when you are in the department store, and then take advantage of the buy one, get one free deals.
Buy at least two pairs of the same color, size and style pantyhose. If you get a run in one, just cut the entire leg off and save it. When you get a run in the other pair, cut that leg off, and you can don each pair that has one leg, making a third pair for yourself.
4. Manis, pedis, massages, etc.
Manicures, pedicures, massages, acrylic nails, eyebrow waxing all may be enjoyed when professionals perform them for you, but you will see your savings increase and still feel pampered when you do these yourself. Get together with friends and have a self-care night. This is a great way to spend some time with those you enjoy being with, feel and look your best, and save a ton of money doing it yourself.
The one item you have as a professional that does not cost you anything is your self-confidence. Use this to your advantage; it is better than anything you can do to your physical appearance. Enjoy your professional life.
Take the Next Step:
- Apply one or more of the above ideas and spend less on getting ready for work. You'll find that it's possible to look great without spending every dime that you make.

The SportDog SD-1875 is an innovative electronic training collar that also includes an external beeper system. Remote controlled beeper with motion sensor lets you locate your bird dog instantly at the touch of a button and know whether he is moving or on point. It is designed for upland bird dog handlers but is also ideal for anyone wanting to locate their dog in the field using a loud audible sound. Select from 9 unique beeper tones when using beeper function (including Realhawk and quail call options). The electronic trainer lets you correct your dog with 14 stimulation levels, plus vibration and tone only training. The system expands to up to 3 dogs with the Add-A -Dog Collar, sold separately. Plus, it's waterproof and submersible. It includes rechargeable batteries in all components and a battery charger that lets you charge both the collar and the transmitter at the same time. Charge time is approximately 2 hours.
As opposed to a traditional "tone" function, the beeper is a loudspeaker horn that sits on the top of the dog's neck. It can be heard from 150 to 500 yards depending on weather and terrain. The tone option, which this trainer also has, is used to give your dog warnings or commands.
The SD-1875 transmitter operates both the beeper and the electronic training collar, letting you turn the beeper on and off as the cover changes or as your dog extends his range from you. You can also adjust the beeper from Run/Point Mode to Point Mode Only.
System includes 2.6 oz collar (fits dogs 8 lbs and over with necks up to 23"), transmitter, beeper, rechargeable batteries, battery charger, collar probes, belt clip and lanyard, test light, training DVD and owner's manual.

F.J. Kashanian
Handwoven in Jaipur, India using the same silk as women's saris, this gorgeous rug will add beautiful dimension and style to any room.
Gilda Kashanian, the lead designer of F.J. Kashanian Rugs, draws upon the patterns of classic Persian and Agra rugs when devising her creations, but she imbues them with modern colors and a fresh spirit that make them perfect for contemporary as well as traditional decors. And because they're handcrafted of the finest fibers, they're certain to stand the test of time as well as the antiques that inspired them.


text: Gender Bent (Loose) Eyeshadow ($6.25 for 0.11 oz.) is described as a "vivid, somewhat shimmery teal graced with bold orange sparkle." It's a bluish-teal with orange shimmer and a soft, frosted finish. Applied damp, it was semi-opaque, and then patted dry over Pixie Epoxy, it was more opaque. It had a very, very finely-milled texture and feel–it looked almost matte in the jar–but it was actually easy to use damp or over Pixie Epoxy. Gender Bent wore well for almost eight hours with light fading apparent just after that without a primer, and then layered over Pixie Epoxy and primer, it lasted nine hours without any signs of wear. (Fyrinnae does not seem to make any long-wearing claims, and in their blurb about Pixie Epoxy, they emphasize it is not a primer and to use a primer first to maximize wear time.) Disney Caspian Sea is slightly bluer. Sephora Curacao Punch is more glittery. MAC Parrot is bluer. Urban Decay Deep End is darker. Milani Teal the Truth is more teal. MAC Double Feature #3 #1 is matte. See comparison swatches.

Mel from our web team and Zak, our video and social media guy, recently did a photoshoot with Zak's Honda CB350K and wanted to share about the experience. Check out their story below.
Photography isn't limited just to work for me. I regularly set-up photo shoots, do portrait work, weddings, and assist another photographer outside of work. When our video guy, Zak, picked up a vintage Honda CB350K in July I knew I'd want to do a photo shoot with him and his new/old bike. There's something about vintage bikes, like Honda CB's, Triumphs, and Nortons, that I really love. Maybe because living in the Milwaukee area my entire life I've been surrounded by Harleys, but I really think it's the simple, low, sleek, uncomplicated styling of those old bikes that is super cool to me. You don't get much cooler than James Dean on a Triumph.
In October, we both had some time to get together on a Sunday to make the shoot happen. Another photographer I work with outside of work came along and let us use some brand new equipment on location including Paul Buff Einstein Flash Units, Vegabond LiOn Battery Packs, and a large PLM Umbrella to name a few. After doing some scouting at a couple different locations we decided on shooting on an old steel bridge that runs over a river in the Town Barton, about 10 minutes from Discountramps.com. The bridge is not open to traffic, other than foot or bicycle traffic, and it's old weathered steel structure is rusted with vines and trees growing up and around parts of the bridge. The natural textures, and contrast between the straight lines of the man-made beams, and the vegetation curling around it is amazing. This is a perfect grungy backdrop to compliment the vintage bike and the perfect blue sky the day had presented to us.
The most time consuming part of a shot like this is deciding on composition, lighting, and exposure. Once that was dialed in, I fired away, making minor adjustments on the fly. The photo shoot went great, and I was very happy with the results. I feel Zak, the bridge, and the lighting technique combine to really accentuate the old bike and make it shine, even with the rough spots it's accrued over the years.

About LIM College
LIM College's Paul Olszewski featured on CNN
Video shows creative process behind windows
Visual Merchandising professor Paul Olszewski was recently featured in a video on CNN along with the team responsible for creating the Macy's Herald Square 2009 holiday window display. The Macy's windows attract visitors from the world over and are one of New York City's most enduring holiday traditions. In this year's display, Paul and team created a robotic letter reader that detects "magic" inside children's letters to Santa, stamps them with a seal of approval, and sends them off into a winged creature's arms who then ferries the letters to Santa. In addition to the amazing animation, modeling, and props that go into the Macy's windows, this year Paul and the team added touch-screen technology, bringing customization and interactivity to the display.
LIM College prepares students for success in the fashion industry. Our professors are some of the most respected professionals in their field. In addition to holding the prestigious post of Director of Windows for Macy's Herald Square, Paul was recently named one of the country's top ten influencers in Retail Design in the DDI Portfolio Awards. Congratulations Paul!

In 2007, 2008, 2011 and 2012 foundation members came together to create memory quilts to benefit the Preeclampsia Foundation. Foundation members were asked to design and create a quilt square to honor a loved one lost to preeclampsia or to honor a survivor. The past quilts have been auctioned off at the yearly Saving Grace – A Night of Hope 2007-08 events and were a huge success. In 2011 and 2012, two new quilts were created. The two quilts were displayed at Promise Walks held all over the USA. The quilts have not only raise awareness and research funds, they have also provided an emotional outlet for family members to spotlight their loved ones. The Foundation wants to give those who wish to participate a chance to remember and honor their sons, daughters, mothers, aunts, and sisters. The new quilt will be displayed at Promise Walks around the country during the 2013 walk season.
If you would like participate, please send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please include in your e-mail your full name and mailing address - and the word QUILT in the subject line. A pre-cut fabric square, written instructions, general guidelines, will be mailed to you in early January. There is a strictly enforced deadline of March 1, 2013 to return the completed square to ensure enough time for the quilt to be assembled. If you have questions, feel free to post here or email me.

Mark Mendelson, President/CEO of Ellen Tracy, and a long-time member of LIM College's Fashion Industry Advisory Board, will deliver the keynote address at the College's 74th annual Commencement exercises, which will be held on May 31, 2013 at 4:30 p.m. in Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center.
Mendelson will also be presented with LIM College's Distinguished Achievement Award at the ceremony and the College also plans to bestow upon him an honorary Doctor of Commercial Science degree in recognition of his many accomplishments.
Mendelson was appointed as President/CEO of women's luxury sportswear brand Ellen Tracy in 2008. He came to Ellen Tracy from Ann Taylor, where he headed their New Concept division.
A graduate of the State University of New York at Albany, Mendelson started his career as part of Macy's Executive Training Program, thus beginning a journey through more than 20 years of experience in the sportswear business, both in retail and wholesale. Through the Macy's Executive Training Program he became the Sales Manager at Macy's East, which led to positions as an Assistant Buyer and then Buyer for Bonwit Teller.
Mendelson went on to become Divisional Merchandise Manager, and then General Merchandise Manager, for Ann Taylor. After six years with that company he accepted the role of Sales and Marketing Executive Vice President for Leon Max and later took on that same role for Laundry by Shelli Segal. In 1998, he was named as President of Elie Tahari, where he remained for three years before joining Jones Apparel Group.
He served as President of Nine West Apparel starting in 2001, adding Jones New York Collection in 2002. In 2003, Mendelson assumed responsibility for Anne Klein. In 2005, he was promoted to Chief Merchandising Officer for all Better Apparel brands of the Jones Apparel Group, a position he held until 2007.
Mendelson has been an active member of LIM College's Fashion Industry Advisory Board since 2000. Throughout this period he has supported the College in innumerable ways, including by hiring LIM College interns and graduates, participating in panel discussions, and serving as a guest lecturer -- all while continually providing invaluable curricular advice to assist in identifying emerging areas of study.

The day before her big show, Julia Faye Davison is all smiles. After designing a collection of clothing she will debut during Charleston Fashion Week, Davison only has one more outfit to make -- her own. After countless hours spent dying, cutting and sewing together her outfits, she is excited to put together something for herself.
"I'd rather make something than go out and buy something to wear. The majority of clothes I wear out, I make," Davidson explains.
A designer's work is never done.

It shouldn't take more than the one reason- its existence to visit the home of the incredibly loveable Chicago Cubs, but for those of you who need some more convincing, here are my top 5 reasons to visit this ballpark:
For a complete recap of my visit last summer and full "tour" of the park, read my ballpark review and for money saving tips at this park, check out this post and more in my Money Saving Tips category. Also please bare with me as I continue to make videos as an effort to expand my content- it's my Spring Training as well! ;)
For an excellent preview of the talent you might expect to see on the field, visit The Mandate blog for their MLB Preview of the Chicago Cubs. They break down the off-season moves, pitching, hitting, etc. and certainly don't hold anything back.
Let me know what you think of Wrigley Field and your expectations for the Chicago Cubs!

LogMeIn Hamachi┬▓ is a great little software utility that allows users from accross the globe to join a "LAN". This has multiple uses, such as file sharing, Gaming (One of its most used applications), Networking, Chatting (Instead of conventional IM Software), and also business based functions.
Using this software, makes life a little simpler when rolling out private alpha tests on things such as game servers, as you do not have to worry about handing out secrets keys, or passwords, as a user would have to join your network (which you can password protect, and is joinable from Network Name and/or IP {IP Is unique, and not your LAN/WAN IP})
For the same reasons, it also makes commercial use, rather simple and very secure. You also have the option to "Evict" a user from your network, so if you have a member of staff, who has thier home computer connected to the network, and they no longer require access for any reason (Lost Job, Moved to new project), they can easily have thier access revoked.
Who is this app designed for:
- Gamers
- Developers
- Network Admins
- Groups of Friends
- File Sharing Groups
The Good
- Very Fast
- Very Secure
- No Bugs (That I have found)
- Only allows access to public files, if a user has allowed them to be shared.
The needs improvement section
No bugs to report, no crashes and no actual bad points. In my total, honest opinion, other than a few missing features I have requested for my own reasons, nothing could really use improvement.
Why I think you should use this product
If you require access to LAN capabilities, while out at work, or at home, then this is the software for you. Very simple to use, Great UI, no unrequired buttons or features, large "Power Off" button (Shuts down all your virtual networks), creates a static IP for your LAN.
The security is rather good, with the ability to password protect your networks, and evict any users you no longer want on it, you feel in full control of everything.
How does it compare to similar apps
Smaller Application than most, no annoying nag screens on the free version, and no limitations that a normal user would notice or care about. The free version has limitations, but less than most apps in the same catagory.
My conclusion is, that if you require LAN capabilities, without wanting to pay high prices, then this is the software for you. With a UI that even someone with very little technical knowledge could work around, yet with the power of a great application, it is a must for any Developer, or Network Admin who wants total, and simple access to files on other computers, with no hassle.
Games Developers would find this application very usefull as it allows them to test out LAN gaming, without the need for all the testers to be in the same building. (Also great for private network gaming, or International LAN parties)

On Friday, October 14, 2011 the New District #1 County Barn was officially open and celebrated with an Open House which lasted from 11:00 p.m. until 1:00 p.m. The new barn is 4,800 square feet located at 400 S.W. 8th Street in Antlers.
During the open house more than 150 individuals came by to see the new facility. The barn consists of a shop area and offices and increased and updated technology. The hopes for the new barn was to create a modernized facility for employees to work and maintain equipment, maintain a more precise inventory and have all of the needed equipment in one building instead of two as to save the workers and county both time and money.
At the open house two county workers, Willard Wilkerson and Russell Bailey, also celebrated their retirement and were presented with plaques to commemorate their time and the counties gratitude. Both men had been working for the county for around 8 years.
This new facility was made possible by a REAP (Rural Energy for America Program) Grant and KEDDO (Kiamichi Economic Development District of Oklahoma). Michael A. Brittingham, County Commissioner of District #1, expressed his deepest gratitude to all who made this possible with a special thank you to Senator Ellis and Representative R.C. Pruett who helped them obtain the grant for the county, and Steve Clemente, Project Director at KEDDO and Danny Baldwin, Executive Director at KEDDO.
