St. Joseph the Worker Shrine

Shrine Outreach

Pope John Paul II remind us that shrines are places in which “believers not only revive their faith but also become clearly aware of the duties that derive from it in the social field.” St. Joseph the Worker Shrine has a special fund for the poor, the St. Anthony Fund. Those who worship at the shrine are most generous in contributing to this fund. As a result, the Shrine is fortunate in being able to reach out to many in need. In addition, there are several opportunities for the Shrine staff to assist and cooperate with other organizations in the city that work in various ways for the poor and needy.
