Views 448
Fr Joseph Michael gives the homily at Bloomington, IN, on Sep 03, 2025, where he explores Christ's healing and preaching mission through the sacraments and reflects on St. Gregory the Great's impactful life and miracles.
He highlights the powerful mission of Jesus Christ, who heals body and soul through the sacraments like baptism, confession, and the Eucharist, while also showing His call to spread the gospel to all places. It emphasizes the importance of prayer and solitude in connecting with God. The homily also honors St. Gregory the Great, a significant Pope and Doctor of the Church, known for his writings, missionary efforts, contributions to Gregorian Chant, and key events like the Eucharistic miracle and his vision of St. Michael during a plague, inspiring us to reflect Christ in our own lives.
