Father John's Homily
Homily for the Nativity of John the Baptist – June 24, 2018
Well are you ready for Christmas?
Are you finished your Christmas shopping? You realize Christmas is just six months away from today June 24th.
Can always tell it is six months away by today’s feast of John the Baptist. John the Baptist will always show up on the church’s liturgical calendar this time of the year
... six months before Christmas. And that is not by accident.
You see John the Baptist, who is viewed in the gospel as preparing the way of the Lord, comes on the scene about June 24th
... six months before December 25th. He comes around at the start of summer.
