On this weekend when we approach the altar to be nourished with the Living Bread come down from heaven, do not let the sadness have the last word. Rather, let us pray as never before to God for all the innocents in our dear Church, the Body of Christ; and ask Blessed Mary, our faithful Mother, to bring healing to all under her maternal mantle; and Saint Joseph, Guardian of the Church, to watch over all his children. God bless, Fr. Willy Each weekday, the homily from Daily Mass at Holy Cross Family Ministries is shared online. Visit Family Rosary: World at Prayer and sign up to receive notifications of each day's homily.
