The Month of the Holy Family

February is the month of the Holy Family. In our present day, we are seeing the struggles of families who are trying to live a Christian life. Let us look upon the Holy Family for an example of what we should strive for in our family life. Indeed, what the Holy Family exemplifies best that we can put into practice is that they always put the will of God first and foremost in their lives. The will of God was what ultimately drove this family and should drive each and every one of our Christian families.

Amen? Amen!
Fr. Jamie
