Sell what you possess and give alms. Make to yourselves bags which grow not old, a treasure in heaven which faileth not: where no thief approacheth, nor moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Homily #091210m ( 13min) Play – Today we celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Loreto, which refers to the Translation of the Holy House of Loreto, the house in Nazareth where Mary was born and where the Annunciation occurred.  According to tradition, angels lifted up and transported the little house several times, finally to its current resting place in Loreto, Italy.

Father John Joseph explains how Our Lady exemplifies the role of the mother in the home. The home is where children can see the faith of their parents, where they learn their Christian virtues and what it means to be Catholic.
