  1. The holy family consisted of Our Lord, His divine Mother, and St Joseph.
    They lived in Nazarth and St Joseph worked as a carpenter to earn money to keep the Holy family.
    The Blessed Virgin did the house work and looked after Her Divine Child. There is a picture of the holy family in every house so that we would live up to the example of the holy family.
