8/24/2025-The Call to Go Out: First to Christ, Then to the World
In this homily, Fr. Edward reflects on the Gospel’s call to “Go out to all the world” and explores what that truly means. Mission begins by first going out to encounter Christ, and then going forth to proclaim Him to others.
Fr. Edward shares how the apostles embraced this missionary call, how saints throughout history carried the Gospel to new places, and how key figures in the Diocese of Green Bay—Fr. Claude Allouez, Fr. Samuel Mazzuchelli, Fr. Bonduel, and Fr. Daems—lived this call with courage and faith. Be inspired to live your own mission: meet Christ deeply, and bring His love to the world around you.
