Patron of the Catholic Church

​'After Mary, the Mother of God, no saint is mentioned more frequently in the papal magisterium than Joseph, her spouse. My Predecessors reflected on the message contained in the limited information handed down by the Gospels in order to appreciate more fully his central role in the history of salvation. Blessed Pius IX declared him “Patron of the Catholic Church”, Venerable Pius XII proposed him as “Patron of Workers” and Saint John Paul II as “Guardian of the Redeemer”. Saint Joseph is universally invoked as the “patron of a happy death”.'
Apostolic Letter “Patris corde” (“With a Father’s Heart”), Pope Francis.

The Holy Father has proclaimed a “Year of Saint Joseph” from, 8 December 2020, to 8 December 2021.
