Salt & Light of the World – Jun 09 – Homily – Fr Ignatius

 

Fr Ignatius gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Jun 09, 2020, on how Christians should be the salt and light of the world, salt preserving the world against immorality and light in that we possess, live by and spread the light of truth and good morals throughout the world. He points to the widow Zarephath in the reading today and the saints, King Louis IX of France and St. John the Almoner of Alexandria all of whom generously fed others at their own expense, which resulted in many blessings from God even the working of miracles.
