In this homily, Fr. Dom enlightens us with how Church is a strong tree with deep roots, the kingdom of God as a mustard seed, and the role of fathers in guarding and protecting their families. He reflects on the readings from Ezekiel and Mark, highlighting the power and growth of the Church. He also emphasizes the importance of fathers being like the second Adam, leading their families in prayer and protecting them from evil. His homily concludes with a message of gratitude for the Church and fathers.
