"Do Whatever He Tells You"

Below is the transcript of a homily Bishop Vasa of Santa Rosa - California gave at a Mass for Medical professionals on February 11, 2011.

He uses Mary's statement at the Wedding Feast of Cana of "Do Whatever He Tells You" as the focal point.

Since this statement was so important to Blessed Chaminade, I thought you guys might find the homily interesting.
