Preparing the Way for Christ | Daily Homily June 24 2026

God chose Saint John the Baptist for a special mission long before he was born. His role was to prepare people to welcome Jesus and recognize Him as the Savior. John reminds us that we are not called to draw attention to ourselves but to point others toward Christ. In the same way, the Church continues his mission by helping people encounter the Lord through faith, prayer, and witness. This homily encourages us to become instruments of God's grace, preparing hearts to receive Jesus in everyday life.
