Weekly Reflection

Fraternal Correction Necessary

09-06-2026 | Fr. Jess Ty

Dear Family of God,

Why is fraternal correction necessary?

To correct an erring brother or sister, especially when they are young, is a form of love, we call them tough love. We care enough for them that we don’t want them to persist in error that will result in self-destruction or even lead them to prison in the long run.
