The Kingdom of God Is Near: Healing the Past, Transforming the Future
The Kingdom of God Is Near: Healing the Past, Transforming the Future
In today's powerful homily, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC, reflects on the growing shortage of priests around the world and the urgent need to pray for vocations to the priesthood, religious life, the diaconate, and seminaries. Through inspiring examples from mission territories, he reminds us that the faithful must pray for their shepherds and support those whom God is calling to serve His Church.
Fr. Anthony also speaks about the healing power of Christ and the signs of the Kingdom of God, healing the sick, deliverance, and spiritual renewal. He reminds us that every Mass is a healing Mass, where Jesus desires to heal our physical illnesses, emotional wounds, and painful memories from the past. As disciples of Christ, we are called to pray for healing, seek God's grace, and trust in His power to transform our lives.

This Giving Tuesday, the Marian Fathers at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy need your help to meet an extraordinary challenge. We need to build a new Monastery because we have more young men studying for the priesthood today than at any time in our history and it would be a shame to have to turn anyone away who wants to be a Marian priest simply because we don't have enough rooms! Please help us raise $1 million to meet this matching gift challenge – and build a new Monastery on the “Field of Dreams” we call Eden Hill.
