Beyond Feel-Good Sentiments: A Call for True Pro-Life Urgency – Jan 25 – Homily – Fr Alan
Views 26
Fr Alan gives the homily for the Third Sunday in Ordinary Time (Jan 25, 2026), explaining repentance as a transformative "change of mind" and enlightenment that dispels darkness, enabling detachment from sin—like the idolatry of self—for plenary indulgences and true joy in union with God.
Reflecting on the March for Life amid rising abortions, Father calls for urgent repentance, political action to legally protect unborn lives, and Marian devotion to spark miracles of peace.
