Sunday Homilies

This Sunday is also known as Divine Mercy Sunday. As always, our readings for this Sunday have much to say about the times in which we are living.

Happy Easter! On Sunday, we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead!

May the greatest sign of God’s love, the Passion of Jesus, lead us away from hate and fear and towards love and a desire for justice for all of God’s beloved.

“I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die..."

Oh Lord, give us the grace to acknowledge our blindness. Give us the grace to encounter You and let You open our minds and our hearts and our souls so that we can really see.

The world needs us to witness to God’s love by sharing Good News and loving each other; by working for justice and making peace.

May we open ourselves to transfiguration, and let God use us to help transfigure the world.

Thanks be to God, Jesus resisted these temptations. But these same temptations are still put before us

If our perception of the “other” is causing us to sin, we need to throw it away no matter how attached we are to it, and listen to what Jesus says!

“Share your bread with the hungry, shelter the oppressed and the homeless; clothe the naked when you see them, and do not turn your back on your own.”
