Whoever believes in me will do the works I do, and will do greater ones than these.

“Scrubbing the pan in which Sunday’s pot roast was roasted, getting your children to and from school, doctors appointments, rehearsals and practices, and managing the family finances are hardly inspiring, exhilarating experiences,” says Father Jerry in today’s homily, “But they are holy acts. The details of being a parent, cleaning, teaching, driving to and picking up, paying tuition, guiding, counseling, feeding, and clothing, take on a spiritual character when they are part of the work of transforming a child into a sacred, thoughtful and engaged adult.”

Hear Father’s full message in today’s video above. And feel free to share it with a parent you love.
