SUMMARY:Saint Joseph Cafasso
DESCRIPTION:Saint Joseph Cafasso\nSaint of the Day for June 17\n(January 15\, 1811 – June 23\, 1860)\nhttps://www.franciscanmedia.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/SODJun17.mp3\nSaint Joseph Cafasso’s story\nEven as a young man\, Joseph loved to attend Mass and was known for his humility and fervor in prayer. After his ordination\, he was assigned to a seminary in Turin. There he worked especially against the spirit of Jansenism–an excessive preoccupation with sin and damnation. He used the works of Saint Francis de Sales and Saint Alphonsus Liguori to moderate the rigorism popular at the seminary. \nJoseph recommended membership in the Secular Franciscan Order to priests. He urged devotion to the Blessed Sacrament and encouraged daily Communion. In addition to his teaching duties\, Joseph was an excellent preacher\, confessor\, and retreat master. Noted for his work with condemned prisoners\, he helped many of them die at peace with God. \nJoseph urged one of his former pupils–Saint John Bosco–to establish the Salesians congregation to work with the youth of Turin. Joseph Cafasso died in 1860\, and was canonized in 1947. \n\nReflection\nDevotion to the Eucharist gave energy to all Joseph’s other activities. Long prayer before the Blessed Sacrament has been characteristic of many Catholics who have lived out the Gospel well: Saint Francis\, Bishop Fulton Sheen\, Cardinal Joseph Bernardin\, and Saint Teresa of Calcutta among them. \n\nThe Liturgical Feast of Saint Joseph Cafasso is June 23.\n\nSaint Joseph Cafasso is the Patron Saint of:\nPrisoners\nPrussia
