Aug 28 – Homily – Fr Maximilian W: Prepare for the Master’s Coming

Homily #140828n ( 07min) Play - Fr. Maximilian comments on the words of Our Lord in today's Gospel, reminding us to "be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come." In order to do this, Father presents the example of today's Saint, St. Augustine, who sought the truth all his life and was, by grace, lead to give up his sins and become a great saint. May we, with the enabling action of grace, give up our sins and become great saints, lest the Master come, and cast us "where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth."
Ave Maria!
