Saint Joseph Manyanet deepened the mystery of God through the contemplation of the Holy Family of Nazareth. His mission was to put into practice and announce to the world the Gospel of the Holy Family. His entire life was spent in presenting God’s plan for marriage and the family and in raising children and youth able to shape healthy families, pillars of a culture of life and love.

​

Joseph Manyanet asserted that “paternity is similar to the priesthood,” and his teaching to parents was that their lives be open to the gospel and that they teach the gospel to their children through the small events of everyday life as is shown to us in Jesus' years as a youth at Nazareth.

​

In the house of the Holy Family, Joseph Manyanet discovered the importance of the family and there learned the culture of life and love for the benefit of children and youth, the Church and all of society.
