Father Broom preaches on the Gospel Luke 7: 11-17. Jesus is moved with pity for the Widow of Naim whose only son has died. What compassion Our Lord has for her suffering and for ours.
Father Broom exhorts us to pray for the dead… the spiritually dead. he calls them the living dead. They are alive in their body but dead in their soul…. not attending Mass, living in fornication or adultery. Those who have turned their back on Christ are among the living dead. We must pray for them and sacrifice for them. We must beg Mary to help them return to life like the son of the widow of Naim.
Father Ed Broom OMV is a member of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary and is Associate Pastor at St. Peter Chanel Church in Hawaiian Gardens California.
