Series on “The Father” by Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR (Part 4)
What does it mean to be made for freedom? We are all called to live in freedom as sons and daughters of God.

It’s to be in the space of utter poverty and to trust that receptivity that He will come. And what we celebrate in this holy Triduum, this Holy Week, is Christ, giving himself to us as the bridegroom and espousing himself to us, His bride. We are celebrating Jesus’ love and total…
