Fathers are the foundation of families, they give them identity and meaning in both life and in death. On this weekend when we stop the frenetic pace of life to honor and remember fathers, we have an opportunity to reflect on what really matters most in our lives. They are a gift to be received and we should thank them if they are still with us. If not, we should still thank them, honor them, remember them and learn all we can from the example of their lives.
“The chaste spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the earthly father of Jesus” Joseph was the head of the Holy Family…”
In our own Christian family we can learn the way of selfless love in the School of Nazareth.
