Homily: Presidential Politics and the National Eucharistic Congress | Fr. Mathias Thelen

In this homily given Sunday July 28, 2024, Fr Mathias challenges us to see the general election this fall from the perspective of what God was doing in the National Eucharistic Congress. Just as Philip didn't see how they were to feed the crowd because he didn't know what Jesus was intending supernaturally, we should be careful not to attempt to see what's going on in the world merely with natural eyes but with supernatural faith. After offering some highlights of the National Eucharistic Congress, Father encourages us to repent and give to Jesus in the Eucharist our fears so that receiving his love we can bring his supernatural hope to those around us.
