Homily #120219 (
16min) Play - Our Lord's ultimate reason for coming into this world was to free us from our sins. He uses the miracle of the healing of paralytic's bodily infirmity to show that He has the power to forgive sins. Let us think about the opportunity God gives us to obtain mercy in this coming great and pre-eminnent pennitential season of Lent - let us resolve to go to frequent confession not only during Lent, but hereafter.Ave Maria!

Thank you for the lovely homily, Father.
I love the reading about the paralytic! The faith of the friends, their determination to bring their friend to Christ to be healed, always inspires me to pray for my disabled son. The faith of our family may bring about God’s mercy to Paul Anthony. In His time.
All for the glory of God!
Ave Maria!
(a joyful heart!)
Thank you for the encouragement in confession and prayer, and in God’s love for us. It is such a blessing to hear your faith. Keep encouraging the flock in truth.
