Impulses from pastor Stefan Buß: Feast of the Holy Family

"Then Jesus returned with Mary and Joseph to Nazareth and was obedient to them " (Lk. 2,51). Is that what a holy family looks like? There is perfect harmony between the good boy Jesus and his parents; he grew up obediently in the house of the carpenter of Nazareth. So some people may have or had it hanging over their grandparents' bed as a picture in the so-called "Nazarene style". The idea of ​​the Holy Family as a shining example for the endangered Christian family was to introduce a festival for the whole family in her honor in 1920. This is the ideal picture of the Holy Family - and our family ?!
