 Very rarely does the Church celebrate a saint on two different days. We celebrate the birth of John the Baptist on June 24, and today August 29 his martyrdom. Jesus said of John the Baptist, “Of all men born of women, there is none greater than John the Baptist.” Father Ed Broom gives us three virtues of St. John the Baptist that we want to emulate in our pursuit of holiness.

Father Ed Broom reminds us the most eloquent symbol of Love is the Cross. If you are confused about what Love is, spend a few minutes contemplating Jesus on the cross. There you have Love Incarnate. Love demands a response. Therefore, we are to love God with all our heart, mind, soul and strength. If we love God totally it will be manifested by the way we love our neighbor.
