Christian Charity: The Super Power of the Children of God – Feb 08 – Homily – Fr Matthias
Views 28
Fr. Matthias M. Sasko gives the homily for the Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Feb 08, 2026), on how Christian charity is the "super power" of supernatural light received in baptism, meant to shine through concrete acts like feeding the hungry and forgiving injuries, as outlined in stages from beginners to saints.
By following the examples of Our Lady and the saints, we learn to move beyond natural preferences to a sacrificial love that overlooks faults and brings light to all.
(Recorded at Our Lady's Chapel, New Bedford, MA.)
