The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/122925.cfm Father Chris Alar, MIC reflects on the coming Feast of the Presentation of the Lord and the Purification of Mary — a mystery often misunderstood, and sometimes misused, to challenge the Church’s teaching on Our Lady. What appears, at first glance, to be a ritual of purification reveals instead a profound lesson in obedience, humility, and grace.

Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains two critically important Marian apparitions that you haven't heard about. Gietrzwald (the only approved apparition in Poland) and Pontmain (Our Lady of Hope) in France will give you a much better understanding of Mary's role in God's Kingdom.
