18. Homily for Thanksgiving Day by Fr. Peter Martyr Yungwirth, O.P.

from Parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St. Catherine of Siena · host SVSC

In this Thanksgiving Day reflection, we explore the deeper meaning of spiritual gratitude through the lens of It’s a Wonderful Life and the Gospel story of the healed leper. Just as George Bailey discovers that true riches aren’t material, we’re invited to recognize the unseen grace God pours into our lives through providence, the sacraments, and our relationship with Christ and the saints. Genuine gratitude is more than a feeling. It's a deliberate turning of the heart back to God. Consider how to respond to God’s blessings with the most profound offering we can make: the gift of our very selves. Check Us Out Online: Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube | Flickr
