ECYD Convention Closing Homily

Multiplication of the loaves

Night, ocean, red moon, tiki torches, lines in the sand, black belts, roasting

*Backdrop for the boys’ dance-off

Miracle of the multiplication of the loaves

Christ fed and multiplied his kingdom by feeding, physically and spiritually

He gave only what he had

2 FISH? And 5 loaves. Miracles

Seed into a huge tree (LIFE)

If the tree is the fruit and growth of RC (kingdom of Christ)

Material of wood as the air we give

Our LIFE is the first foundation to the kingdom

Not for what you do but because you are

Tam and Zo

Best friend, and fear of my loss to vocation

Sickness and unable for life > suffering

Zo, tough guy and gym and now made so gentle

Toughest gym, Carmelo Anthony, Alex Rodriguez, Olympic athletes

Yet now so tender in expectation

Boy and girl attracted to the Eucharist

Simple hearted drawn to Christ

THEY explain to their parents what happens

They are the carriers, not even the parents are superior

Christ is TRULY universal

Parents drawn to stay through their children

multiplication of our own lives
