Your Water into God’s Wine - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon
"Friends, this week we resume Ordinary Time, and the Church gives us this extraordinary story of the first sign of Christ’s divinity—the miracle at Cana. Why is the first of Jesus’ miracles turning water into wine at a wedding? Because Jesus himself is the marriage of heaven and earth, who transforms the water of human flourishing into the wine of the divine life." from video introduction.
It’s about bringing purpose and meaning into ordinary moments and allowing faith to enrich them. This message resonates deeply, especially in peaceful retreat venues where you can step back from daily routines and reflect on your own spiritual journey. A retreat space gives you the quiet, undistracted time to turn your “water” moments into “wine”—finding joy, purpose, and deeper connection in simple acts of reflection and prayer. It’s about letting faith renew and guide you.
