Homily of Fr. Theodore Trinko (IVE) during Holy Mass of the celebration of the birthday of St. Sharbel, at the National Shrine Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes, in Emmitsburg, MD, on May 7, 2022. 

“Saint Sharbel whose birthday we are commemorating today is famous because of the miracles he worked during his life. He is somebody who also accomplished incredible feats like the ones we heard in today's reading...He was born to a poor Catholic Maronite family in Bekaa Kafra...It is the highest mountain village in the country of Lebanon. And so it's appropriate that somebody who would fly to the heights of sanctity would begin his life already at the top of the skies”...
