A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai to High School students in Beamsville, Ontario ,on February 2, 2025.
Today is the feast of the presentation. It is a feast of pour Lady, but really focused on Our Lord who is being presented by his parents in the temple. It was the law of Israel that each first born should be presented to the Lord, 40 days after his birth. They are complying with the Mosaic Law. It is his mission. He is presented, offered, given over, and his parents do so with faith, knowing his purpose more than anyone.
Music: Original track by Michael Lee, of Toronto.

Let Your Servant Go in Peace

Coepit facere et docere, dicen el versículo 1 del primer capítulo de los Hechos de los Apóstoles. Jesús es, en primer lugar, el ejemplo, el modelo. Y después es maestro. Verlo y oírlo. Aprendamos a conocer mejor a Jesús encontrando los hechos, los gestos, las obras, en las que tendrán verificativo sus palabras.
