Jesus sends the 72 out two by two — and he sends us too. In this homily, Fr. Michael reflects on the courage it takes to live and proclaim the Gospel in everyday life. Whether it’s through a kind word on a deathbed, letting go of old wounds, or simply choosing peace over bitterness, every believer is called to be on mission. Drawing from encounters with his own family and parishioners, Fr. Michael reminds us that if we lose our edge — that missionary clarity and self-giving love — we lose our faith. This is a call to choose again, to live again, to go on mission again.
