St. Dominic’s Life of Apostolic Zeal- Aug 08 – Homily – Fr Terrance
Views 109
Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN, on Aug 08, 2024, on how St. Dominic exemplified true discipleship by embracing poverty, committing fully to God’s mission, and never looking back.
Today, we honor St. Dominic, founder of the Dominicans, who lived out the Gospel's challenging call to discipleship. Like the would-be followers in Luke 9:58-62, St. Dominic faced the challenge of living without a permanent home, prioritizing God’s call over family duties, and committing to his mission without looking back. St. Dominic embraced poverty, worked tirelessly for the salvation of souls, and serves as a model for true discipleship. Let us pray for the same dedication in our own lives.
