Father Broom talks to the Friday evening Perseverance Group about the Angelic Doctor, St. Thomas Aquinas. He was the greatest philosopher and theologian in the Church. He was a brilliant author and speaker. He grasped the most sublime truths about God, the Sacraments, and the human soul.

Yet he attributed his brilliant insights not to his fervent study but to the time he spent in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. Near the end of his life, he had a vision of Christ. The Lord told him to ask for any gift and he would give it to Thomas. His request? Only this: “Lord, give me the grace to love you more and more each day.”

Father Broom preaches on Jan. 31, the Feast Day of St. John Bosco. This great Saint was dedicated to Our Lady Help of Christians, faithful always to Holy Mother the Church, and filled with love for the Holy Father.

His heart burned for souls and he brought many of his homeless orphan boys to the throne of God. Most famous of these is St. Dominic Savio. Though he died as a boy he achieved great holiness. Today he and St. John Bosco are united in Heaven for all eternity. Let’s pray that we join them and bring many souls with us!
