Give Everything Back to God: Heaven’s Glorified Promise – Nov 22 – Homily – Fr Maximilian
Views 10
Fr Maximilian gives the homily at New Bedford, on Nov 22, 2025, reflecting on the Gospel vision of eternal life, in which glorified bodies reunite with souls in a marriage-free state like that of angels, eternally gazing upon and loving God. Inspired by Saint Cecilia's unyielding faith in the midst of the Roman persecution—which contributed to her family's conversion, helped her preserve her virginity, and led to her martyrdom by beheading—Father urges us to surrender everything back to God in total love and devotion.
