  2. Story of the Holy Family

    Our Blessed Mother and the Divine Infant, went out to meet St. Joseph coming from work one evening, He jumped out of Her arms with joy, as He was running He stood on a thorn and His foot was bleeding. It happened to be in a field of wheat, so every place a drop of his blood fell, a red flower sprung up in the field, and can be seen from that day to this.
