Watch the feast day homily given by the Very Rev. Fr. Kazimierz Chwalek, MIC, the Marians' provincial superior. His homily was delivered during the 7:15 a.m. Mass at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
December 11 is the anniversary of the founding of the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception. On this day in 1670, St. Stanislaus Papczyński left the Piarist order and made his oblatio, his self-offering, to defend the Immaculate Conception.
Father Kenneth Dos Santos, MIC, offers reflections on the Mass readings in his homily for the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, Dec. 8.
Stories about his selfless generosity of heart are the chief reasons St. Nicholas, feast day Dec. 6, is so affectionately revered.
