St. Joseph Shrine

The frontage of Saint Joseph Shrine is yellowish white. The ground floor is separated from the second story by a concrete ceiling. The middle of the ceiling has a triangular part that is raised from the rest and supported by pillars. In front of this part are the words: St. Joseph Shrine Diocese of Cubao. Two small statues of angels are on this triangular part, one on each side; there are also larger statues of angels underneath, one beside each pillar. The second floor is house-like in shape, making the center the highest part of the church. On the middle of the second floor, a large statue of Saint Joseph standing on a sphere and holding baby Jesus is attached. On the sides are two rows glass windows that are tall and narrow: the ones on the lower rows are rectangular while the ones on the upper rows are trapezoidal, conforming to the shape of the roof. A concrete cross is on the top-center of the roof.

The structure that contains the crucifix has four pillars, two on each side, and a semicircular structure on top; the pillars and the structure are white with gold-colored curly decoration. The main body of the pillars are gold in color, but the larger rectangular prism structure on its top and bottom are white. On the right side (your left if you are facing the nave) is a smaller white and gold structure with four equidistant pillars separating the pedestal below from the overhead. The tabernacle is between the first two pillars from the left, while the middle has a provision where a thurible can hang. On the left side (your right if facing the nave) is a large glass cabinet with mainly white, gold, and maroon colors: inside the cabinet is a statue of Joseph holding baby Jesus. There are also some flowers in front of and below the glass. The altar is below the cross and is covered with green linen.
