In this homily for the Solemnity of All Saints, Fr. Miguel reflects on the great multitude seen by St. John — the 144,000 who have been sealed for God. The number, he reminds us, is symbolic of the countless souls called to holiness — including you.
Through baptism, each of us has been marked with the sign of the cross and clothed with Christ. Holiness is not the privilege of a few, Fr. Miguel says, but the duty — and destiny — of every Christian. Drawing on the wisdom of Mother Angelica, Mother Teresa, and St. John Henry Newman, this homily reminds us that God has a particular degree of holiness destined for every soul.
Whether you’re a priest, a parent, or a student — you are called to be a saint.
