In this sixth homily of the Easter series on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Fr. Allain Caparas reflects on the Gift of Understanding—the spiritual grace that allows us to see what God sees and make sense of life’s joys, struggles, and mysteries. Preached on Memorial Day Weekend, the homily honors the sacrifice of those who laid down their lives for others and invites us to go beyond surface-level gratitude toward a deeper, Spirit-led understanding of their legacy.
