In today’s episode, Fr. Rico breaks down the meaning behind the priest’s signature outfit. He explains how the black clothing serves as a symbol of penance, humility, and focus on heaven, while the white collar represents the call to holiness. Beyond symbolism, it’s also a practical “uniform” that helps priests be ready to serve wherever they go. Tune in as Fr. Rico reminds us that what truly defines a priest isn’t what he wears, but the sacred calling he lives every day.
