United Through Love - Fr. Michael Video Homily


Homily Intro

This weekend Fr. Michael is in the Cincinnati area with members of his family celebrating his nephew's wedding. He thought it an appropriate time to reflect on marriage and family life and the call to put the Lord in the center of our hearts.

Preached at Bellarmine Jesuit Retreat House during an evening celebrating marital love this past Feb, Fr. Michael explores the union of man and wife through the love of Christ.
