Dec 28 – Homily – Fr Angelo: Holy Innocents and Meaningful Suffering

Homily #111228 ( 08min) Play - Fr. Angelo preaches on the martyrdom of the Holy Innocents, the babes that died in place of Jesus in Bethlehem at the hands of Herod. He points out that they are martyrs in spite of the fact that they did not formally profess faith in Christ but God sees the value of their suffering and places a salvific value on it and this speaks volumes of the value of suffering in many situations.
