TODAY'S HOMILY IN BRIEF. Today the Creator condescends to meet His creatures. God Himself comes to His people; a people He had always searched for. He comes not to condemn them but to offer them His mercy, love and compassion. He comes to fill the emptiness of His people, to fulfil their hope and to redeem them from their lifelong enemies. In today's feast Jesus Christ comes to us as the Light that darkness couldn't overcome nor comprehend to dispel the darkness in our lives, our families, our communities, our religious institututions, and our world. Let open the gates that the King of Glory and the Light of the world may enter in. For our NINE-DAY-BEGINNING OF THE MONTH INTENSIVE PRAYERS AND NOVENA kindly pray your daily Rosary with Psalms 31, 54, 94, 1 Chronicles 4: 9-10 and Isaiah 60:1-22 from 1st to 9th February, 2023. ...
NEW MONTH BLESSINGS FOR OCTOBER, 2020.
