In this homily, Father Greg delves into the theme of poverty and its transformative power, reflecting on the Gospel reading’s portrayal of widows who showed remarkable generosity despite their poverty. Drawing from his experiences with the Missionaries of Charity, he highlights how strength and grace can arise from adversity. He encourages recognizing different forms of poverty—material, emotional, personal, and spiritual—and shows how faith and prayer help us overcome these challenges, ultimately connecting these themes to Jesus’ teachings and the spiritual wealth gained through His own poverty.
