Cardinal Semeraro honors Antonio Spalatro in Vieste

Cardinal Marcello Semeraro delivered a homily in Vieste honoring the memory of the Servant of God, Antonio Spalatro. During the service, Semeraro reflected on the nature of priestly service and the concept of evangelical smallness.

Drawing a parallel to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, the Cardinal noted that while lives may be brief, their significance is measured by the quality of love and the orientation of one's life toward the divine. He emphasized that holiness is not determined by longevity but by how fully a life is lived in service.
