The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph

Luke 2:22-40






*Friends, today we celebrate the feast of the Holy Family. The Gospel
presents the life of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph as a model for our families.
We spend a lot of time worrying about our family’s welfare. Will we have
enough money to send the kids to the best schools? Will they find and
establish a lucrative career? Will they fit into polite society? But the
only question that finally matters is: have they found their mission from
God? The family is meant to be, as John Paul II described it, an
ecclesiola, a little Church. And the Church’s purpose is to discern and
foster the missions of its people. What makes a family holy is its capacity
to surrender itself to a higher goal, as in Aristotle’s definition of
friendship. When the family turns in on itself, it devolves into
dysfunction. "If you love someone, set them free," says the famous
quotation attributed to American writer Richard Bach. The holy family is
one that is free for God’s work.*
