Ave Maria! For everyone, especially those discerning a life of celibacy, a homily on purity on the feast of St. Maria Goretti: Jul 06 - Homily - Fr Elias: Maria Goretti and Purity http://airmaria.com/?sn=130706b&vp=37206&prefx=hmly&plyrnb=1&ttl=Homily Fr.

So I'm flying to my family for Easter Weekend. My folks will pick me up at BWI tomorrow and we are going out to dinner after Holy Thursday Liturgy. My mom already knows that I am discerning with the Poor Clares and has become a bit more ok with it---thank you Holy Spirit and Pope Francis-- but no one else does.
