MEDIA ADVISORY, Oct. 14, 2024 /Standard Newswire/ -- "The Josephology Society has been a vision I've carried in my heart for over a decade," said Rev. Edward Looney, STL, the Founder of the Josephology Society and a priest of the Diocese of Green Bay in the US. With a dedicated team of 16 charter members -- including well-known scholars like Dr. Scott Hahn, Mike Aquilina, and honorary advisors Fr. Larry Toschi, OSJ, MTh, MDiv, MSTM and Very Rev. Donald H. Calloway, MIC, MDiv, STB, STL -- the dream of this new academic society is to bring together scholars, theologians, clergy, consecrated religious, and laity from around the world who are passionate about promoting the study of Saint Joseph and fostering a deeper appreciation for the loving father of Jesus and the chaste husband of Mary.
"I felt the time was right to bring this idea to life," said Fr. Looney, author, social media evangelist, and current Secretariat (and past President) of the Mariological Society of America. "As a Marian theologian, I see Josephology as closely related to Mariology. By studying Joseph, we naturally find ourselves drawn to Jesus and Mary but with new and profound insights. Christology and Mariology complement Josephology." October 13 was chosen as the official launch date for The Josephology Society (TJS) because Joseph also appeared with Mary at Fatima, Portugal on this date in 1917, witnessed by many thousands, holding the Christ Child and blessing the world at the renowned "Miracle of the Sun" as a profound reminder of the importance of family and fatherhood.
With its first Josephology Symposium slated for May 1, 2025, and a call for paper abstracts to be submitted for its Josephology Studiespublication by January 6, 2025, TJS is cordially inviting all Josephologist scholars, devotees, and students worldwide to join this new Society for their intellectual and spiritual enrichment and to contribute to the advancement of Josephology in Christian history.
