| About Saint Joseph's Day |
| Saint Joseph's Day is celebrated on 19 March; Feast of St. Joseph or Solemnity of Saint Joseph is in Western Christianity the principal feast day of Saint Joseph. Saint Joseph is the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and this day is the Patronal Feast day for persons named Joseph, Josephine, etc., for religious orders, schools and parishes bearing his name, and for carpenters. This date was already dedicated to Saint Joseph in several Western calendars in the tenth century and it always falls within Lent. Eastern Orthodox Church celebrates Saint Joseph on the Sunday after Christmas and since not every country celebrates May Day as Labor Day, the Memorial of Saint Joseph the Worker was made optional in 1969.
