Mar 15 – Homily – Fr Maximilian W: Rejoicing in Suffering

Homily #150315n ( 14min) Play - Amidst our Lenten suffering, we today hear the Church tell us "Laetare" "Rejoice" for we are suffering now, but Easter is in sight. We can see this mix of intense suffering and intense joy in the lives of the saints, and what brings this joy is that through suffering we are brought closer to Christ Crucified, closer to God. Let us rejoice, and rejoice in the privileged of sharing in the Cross of Christ. Laetare!
Ave Maria!
