Day 23 Joseph
Joseph works behind the scenes to support the mysterious reality of Mary's pregnancy, to get her to "center stage" in Bethlehem, and to protect the Holy Family from harm. Joseph becomes the foster father of Jesus and teaches him the Carpenter's trade.
Joseph was a "righteous man" who didn't just lie around waiting for God to act.
Rather, Joseph actively participated in preparing for God's future reign by accepting his wife, Mary, and the child she conceived so unexpectedly, the one called Emmanuel, "God is with us."
