Fr. Paul Moret speaks on the deeper meaning of the family, not just as a social unit but as the Church’s foundation. He explains the often-overlooked spiritual meaning of the Preparation of the Gifts in the Mass, tying it to our call to offer ourselves with Christ. Referencing the role of deacons and the spiritual significance of sacrifice, he echoes Fulton Sheen’s point that Mass feels boring only when we bring nothing to it. The homily beautifully connects the Holy Family to our own need to bring both material and interior offerings to God.
