Teach Us to Pray from the Heart – 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year C)
Update: 2025-08-01
Description
In this tender homily, Fr. Michael reflects on the death of a beloved parishioner and invites us to rediscover the realism and intimacy of prayer. Drawing from the tradition of wakes, the symbolism of the Easter candle, and the gospel’s call to “knock and it will be opened,” he guides us to pray as Jesus taught: not with an agenda, but with open hearts ready to rest in the Father. A moving meditation on death, purgatory, and the transforming power of heartfelt prayer.
