Feb 15 – Homily – Fr Matthias: Mary and Women’s Ordination

Homily #140215n ( 10min) Play - Fr. Matthias draws a comparison between Jeroboam's sin in today's first reading and the controversy of women's ordination. Father repeats the statements from soon-to-be saint Bl. John Paul II on woman's ordination and then presents the Holy Father's teaching that women find their Christian dignity, not in "masculization", but in imitating the Blessed Virgin Mary's relationship with Her Priestly Son by "spiritual maternity".
