Discover the Hidden Joy Beyond Life's Sorrows.

Life often overwhelms us with challenges, leaving us struggling to see the joy that might be just around the corner. In this third message of The Joy of Christmas series, we explore the story of Joseph and the first Christmas through the lens of faith, resilience, and hope.

Through the ancient tradition of “The Seven Sorrows and Joys of St. Joseph,” we uncover how Joseph’s journey—marked by heartbreak, poverty, fear, and starting over—mirrors the struggles we all face. Yet, at every turn, God brings joy out of sorrow, hope out of despair, and light into the darkest moments of life. Join us as we reflect on the true meaning of Christmas and discover how faith and hope can lead us through life’s challenges into joy and redemption.
