Today’s homily: The Nativity of St John the Baptist (2026)

Today’s Homily Our Lady of Perpetual Help

The icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour reveals the mystery of Calvary: the Divine Child beholds the instruments of His Passion, while Mary looks with compassion upon those for whom He will suffer. Saint John the Baptist points us to the Lamb of God; Christ crucified gives us His Mother, whose perpetual help leads sinners through repentance, sacrifice, and the Holy Eucharist to eternal salvation. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/27/todays-mass-june-27-our-lady-of-perpetual-help/ [https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/27/todays-mass-june-27-our-lady-of-perpetual-help/]

Today’s homily: SS John & Paul Martyrs (2026)

Saints John and Paul were secretly slain for refusing to compromise the Faith, yet their hidden martyrdom became one of Rome’s most enduring testimonies. Their feast teaches that Christian deliverance is not always escape from suffering, but fidelity through it: fearing God rather than men, rejecting hypocrisy, and confessing Christ openly so that He may confess us before the angels. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/26/todays-mass-june-26-ss-john-paul-martyrs/ [https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/26/todays-mass-june-26-ss-john-paul-martyrs/]

The Promise of the Unborn

The Voice and the Word: On the rare feast of a saint's earthly birth, the Church celebrates St John the Baptist, sanctified in the womb and chosen from eternity to prepare the way for Christ. This homily reflects on St Augustine's insight that John was the Voice while Christ is the Word, challenging every Christian to imitate the Baptist's humility and fidelity by allowing Christ to increase while we decrease. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/24/todays-homily-nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist/ [https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/24/todays-homily-nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist/] #OldRomanTV #Nuntiatoria #dailymass

Today’s homily: The Nativity of St John the Baptist (2026)

On the rare feast of a saint's earthly birth, the Church celebrates St John the Baptist, sanctified in the womb and chosen from eternity to prepare the way for Christ. Drawing deeply from the traditional Roman liturgy, this homily explores John's miraculous birth, his life of desert penance, his role as the new Elias and final prophet, his baptism of Christ in the Jordan, and his fearless martyrdom before Herod. Above all, it reflects on St Augustine's insight that John was the Voice while Christ is the Word, challenging every Christian to imitate the Baptist's humility and fidelity by allowing Christ to increase while we decrease. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/24/todays-mass-june-24-the-nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist/ [https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/06/24/todays-mass-june-24-the-nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist/]

Today’s homily: Pentecost Thursday Whitsuntide (2026)

On Pentecost Thursday, the Church contemplates the Gift of Knowledge as the power to judge reality rightly and act upon it. Through the mission of St Augustine of Canterbury, who hesitated, turned back, and then obeyed, this homily shows how clarity must lead to action—revealing that the conversion of a nation began not in certainty, but in a decision to follow what had already been seen. https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/05/28/todays-mass-may-28-pentecost-thursday-whitsuntide/ [https://nuntiatoria.org/2026/05/28/todays-mass-may-28-pentecost-thursday-whitsuntide/]
