It is quite probable that Joseph died before Our Lord began his public life of preaching and laying the foundation for Christianity so he never really became a Christian. The religion had not yet been founded at the time. Joseph was born a Jew, lived his entire life as a Jew and died as a Jew.
Joseph showed great devotion to Jesus by being his step-father.
He was a follower of Jesus and is brothers with St. Peter
No he was a disciple (follower) of him
St. Paul
because he was a follower of Jesus
Mark was a follower/ disciple of Jesus. He was of no blood kin.
According to Christian belief, God was the father of Jesus. That is why Jesus is referred to as the "Son of God." Thus, he is not the son of St. Joseph, who kindly accepted God's plan and understood that his wife Mary would become pregnant miraculously. While they did not have adoption back then, St. Joseph was very much like an adoptive father to the infant Jesus.
St. Anne was probably dead for a number of years before Jesus began his public ministry.
St. Joseph was the foster father of Jesus.
St. Joseph was the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and foster father of Jesus. He is called by several titles including Joseph the Carpenter and Joseph the Worker.
From her earliest years Bernadette was quite close to God. She did not have a sudden epiphany. The visions she had of the Virgin Mary just made her stronger in her faith.
Joseph means..... May Jehovah add/give increase. St Joseph of Arimathea undertook the burial of Jesus ( in Holy Grail lore ). In the Bible Joseph was sold by his brothers into slavery and later rose to become a supreme power in Egypt. ALSO Jesus' legal father!
