Join The CatholicTV Network for this full Daily Mass celebration on the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord.

In today’s reverent Homily, the celebrant reflects on the arrival of the "clear sun of righteousness" who shows us the way to the Father. As the Church observes the World Day for Consecrated Life, we are invited to pray for those who have dedicated themselves to the Lord through holy vows. We look to the example of Simeon and Anna, who waited with tireless hope to welcome the Christ child. This feast reminds us that in Jesus, there is "no darkness at all," and we are called to go forth into the world reflecting His divine light.

May these holy mysteries bring God's grace to perfection within us, so that we may meet the Lord with joy and obtain the gift of eternal life.
