Blessed Luchesio (28 April): From Greed to Holiness

About this sermon

Are you living for this world… or for eternity? In today’s powerful Catholic homily, we reflect on the life of Blessed Luchesius, a once-greedy merchant who experienced a profound conversion through God’s grace. His transformation—from a man consumed by wealth to a model of charity, poverty, and holiness—offers a timeless lesson for our modern world. Through the influence of St. Francis of Assisi, Blessed Luchesius became the first Franciscan tertiary, showing that sanctity is possible even in the married and lay state. His life reminds us that true treasure is not found in riches, but in heaven. This sermon also calls us to: Reject greed and materialism Live simply and trust in God’s providence Pray and sacrifice for the salvation of souls Store up treasure in heaven, not on earth 🙏 As Our Lady of Fatima warned, many souls are lost because no one prays or sacrifices for them. Let us respond to that call today. 💙 Support Pro-Life While Buying or Selling a Home Real Estate for Life connects you with top agents while supporting pro-life causes. 👉 Visit: https://realestateforlife.org 0:00 – Support Pro-Life Through Real Estate for Life 0:25 – Introduction: Blessed Luchesius 0:33 – A Life of Greed and Avarice 0:57 – The Power of Prayer and Grace 1:13 – Warning from St. Paul: Spiritual Blindness 1:45 – Conversion and Influence of St. Francis 2:30 – The Third Order of St. Francis Explained 3:01 – Living Holiness in Marriage 3:32 – Radical Charity: Giving Everything Away 3:58 – The Miracle of the Filled Pantry 4:20 – A Holy Marriage and Death in Unity 5:09 – Lesson: Trust in God, Not Wealth 5:25 – Store Your Treasure in Heaven 6:03 – A Model Franciscan Tertiary 6:28 – The Spirit of Poverty vs. Worldliness 7:00 – You Can’t Take It With You 7:24 – Warning to the Wealthy and Powerful 7:48 – Seeking Eternal Treasure 8:10 – Final Call: Pray for Souls 8:27 – Fatima Message: Pray and Sacrifice 8:44 – The Power of the Rosary 8:59 – Final Blessing For more please visit https://www.themarianfranciscans.org/ Please sign up at this link https://lifecrusade.org/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
