St. Matthias 2021
(Profession Day)
Today marks a step closer to the Sacred Priesthood as our brother officially becomes a member of our community with his profession. Religious life is a secure path to holiness and happiness in this life which will blossom in heaven. In recalling the first stirrings of a vocation one can see Our Lord gently calling to follow Him in His life of suffering for others. Sacrifices and greater challenges are still in the future as Christ molds one into a perfect image of Himself on the Cross. By a generous and humble acceptance of this will lead to our sharing in the glory of Our Lord.
