Podcast:Sunday Homilies with Fr. Mike Schmitz Published On: Thu Feb 18 2021 Description: Homily from Ash Wednesday. Return to the Lord with your whole heart. We are often tempted to run away from God and from difficult moments in life. We might even be tempted to escape from all that has been taken from us over the past year. But to choose to embrace this moment is to choose to embrace the Lord and His Providence.
