This homily begins a three-part series titled Called by Name, preached on the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. Fr. Will Rooney reflects on how our mission in life flows not first from what we do for God, but from who we are in relationship with Him. Drawing on the witness of St. Louis IX and the Gospel account of Jesus’ baptism, this reflection explores how baptism establishes us as beloved sons and daughters, invited into Christ’s own relationship with the Father—a relationship that becomes the foundation for identity, prayer, and mission.

In this Adult Faith Formation talk, Fr. Will Rooney explores what it truly means to grow in a relationship with Jesus. Drawing on Scripture, the teaching of Pope Benedict XVI, and the lived experience of Christian discipleship, this reflection emphasizes that Christianity is not first a moral system but a relationship rooted in God’s love. Participants are invited to respond to that love through prayer, the sacraments, obedience to God’s commandments, intentional community, and the creation of a practical rule of life that fosters growth in charity and holiness.
