Holy Priests for Today’s Spiritual War – Oct 23 – Homily – Fr Alan

 

In the homily for the memorial of St. John of Capistrano (Franciscan priest, Oct 23), Fr. Alan draws the analogy between the saint's role in the Battle of Belgrade to the spiritual war being waged against Christ and the Church, and based on the example and teaching of St. John of Capistrano, draws the conclusion that we need holy priests if we hope to gain victory, and so we must pray for our priests.
