Regarding the patronage of this church, the cathedral in Vasto, here are a few brief thoughts from Mario Amico: "In the New Testament, [Saint Joseph] is mentioned in only two Gospels, a total of just fifteen times. Not a word of his is recorded. He doesn't speak, but he acts upon his dreams. That, I call true trust in God. Trusting God isn't always easy, especially in today's world. But perhaps (...) it's a good opportunity to engage with it. Like Saint Joseph: silence, listening, trusting, and then acting. It sounds so simple, but it requires practice. His story shows us that he could trust in God's promise and knew that God would not abandon him, and therefore not us either. That is precisely why he became the patron saint of the entire Church. What a role model for our time."
