All Saints: Celebrating Mary’s and the Saints’ Triumph Over the Devil – Nov 01 – Homily – Fr Isidore

 

Fr. Isidore M. Cipres gives the homily for the Solemnity of All Saints, celebrating heaven’s victory over the devil and reminding listeners that holiness is a universal vocation lived out in family, with forgiveness and persevering love.

Father urges listeners to defend life and marriage against modern assaults, to practice the Beatitudes, and to trust that “the last word belongs to the risen Christ,” with Mary crushing the Serpent's head, inspiring us to become living icons of the Kingdom of God.

Given at Our Lady's Chapel, New Bedford, MA, on Nov 01, 2025.
