Homily for Thursday of the 4th Week of Easter It’s amazing to me how the Lord always seems to choose the right person to be His messenger at different moments. We see it time and again throughout Scripture, but I’m also sure that we’ve experienced it in our own lives as well. What we come…
Homily for Tuesday of the 4th Week of Easter One of the things I really love about John’s gospel is how rich it is in providing certain details about the events in the life of Jesus and how those details can direct our minds and hearts to a deeper meaning of Christ’s actions. Every word has…
Homily for the 4th Sunday of Easter, Good Shepherd Sunday First of all, I want to take this opportunity to, once again, wish all of our mothers, grandmothers, and spiritual mothers a very happy Mother’s Day. Thank you for always caring for us and supporting us in all that we do. I hope that this…
Homily for Friday of the Third Week of Easter As I mentioned earlier this week in one of my homilies for our morning Masses, over the last several days now, we have been reading through John 6, the Bread of Life Discourse. As Jesus has shared what will become his teaching on the Eucharist, we…

Homily for the Memorial of St. Scholastica Within Scripture, we are told on countless occasions to always make our petitions and our prayers known to the Lord, that we should bring our requests before Him and to have the faith that He will answer and respond to those requests. Today we have two beautiful examples…
Homily for Tuesday of the 4th Week in Ordinary Time In our Gospel today, we have two examples of individuals who approach Jesus to bring about healing in their lives. They know who Jesus is; they have seen all that He has done, or, in the very least, heard about Him. They have come to…
Homily for the Memorial of St. John Bosco Throughout the Gospel of Mark, there are only a select few who recognize that Jesus is the Son of God.
