Father Ed Broom, OMV, serves as Associate Pastor at St. Peter Chanel Church in Hawaiian Gardens, California. He is a member of the Religious Order, Oblates of the Virgin Mary, and was ordained by Saint John Paul II in St Peter’s Basilica on May 25, 1986. Fr. Ed is a Retreat Master and teaches Catholic Ignatian Marian Spirituality through articles, podcasts, a radio show, retreats and spiritual direction. He is the author of three books: From Humdrum to Holy, Total. Consecration to Jesus through Mary though the Mysteries of the Rosary and Road Map to Heaven, A Catholic Plan of Life.
Father Ed Broom asks three questions: Do you want to go to Heaven? Yes? Do you want to become a great saint? No? Then he asks, who is in Heaven? God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Mary, the angels, and … right, the saints! So if we want to go to Heaven we have to become saints! Today’s homily is about becoming holy… becoming a saint! We have a wonderful example in our newest saint in the Catholic Church – Saint Teresa of Calcutta!
