Joseph's Way: Tekton

Tekton is Greek for a carpenter, architect, builder. Indeed, as St. Joseph was the carpenter who, with God’s aid, built the Holy Family into the first domestic church, so also the human father is appointed by God the Father to be a father who builds his family into an icon of the Holy Family, into a domestic church wherein God abides. “Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.” Psalm 127:1
