Homily #120520 (15min) Play – Fr. Angelo preaches on the Gospel according to St. John where Jesus prays to His Father that His apostles would be protected and would maintain unity in charity and truth. He does this because He was about to leave them as far as a visible presence in concerned by being crucified for our sins. Then He was Resurrected and Ascended into heaven but promised that He would send the Holy Spirit who will give them the needed graces. So they prayed for the coming of the Comforter in the upper room for nine days completing the first novena of prayer.
