Born like pagans, we must be taught the faith

14th Sunday in ordinary time, July 4, 2010
Fr. Anthony Brankin
Gospel: Luke 10: 1-12, 17-20. The Lord sent out 70 disciples.
MP3 Audio 14 min.

The Church in the early centuries preached belief in the Lord Jesus. They were persecuted for 300 years before Christianity won over the population. And yet, each generation must be taught the Catholic faith. Our children are like unknowing pagans, and must be taught the faith, and converted to it. The survival of the family depends on the faith.

This homily is brought to you by the Georgetown Visitation Sisters in Washington, D.C. Saint Francis de Sales’ “little virtues” of gentleness, kindness, humility, and cheerful optimism shape monastic life for these sisters.
