Taste And See His Sweetness

July 31, 2022By

8th Sunday After Pentecost 2022
”Taste and see how sweet the Lord is”  These words are from the earliest Communion psalm, which was a favorite among the early Christians.  We celebrate the feast of the Holy Maccabees, the only Old Testaments saints celebrated in the liturgy, and their story reminds us of our need for fortitude during suffering, to stand against persecution, and to be true to our principals.  Our Rosary and spiritual reading are more powerful against the world than carrying signs of protest.

We Possess All We Need

July 24, 2022By

7th Sunday After Pentecost 2022
We are not only able to determine the virtue or malice of our neighbor by the fruits he produces, but if we are honest with ourselves, we can see whether our own fruits are good or evil.  We can find the first fruits of our lives in our prayers, the second in our confessions, and the third we find in our willingness to follow the Will of God.  To follow God’s Will is obedience and obedience is necessary for salvation.  All we must do is desire to follow the Divine Will and pray for the grace to do so.  We possess all we need to reach heaven.

Fall Forward

July 17, 2022By

6th Sunday After Pentecost 2022
This Sunday brings our minds back to the two great sacraments of Holy Week: Baptism and the Holy Eucharist.  Through the former we are given life in the Mystical Body and by the latter that life is nourished and grows.  Those who fall short in attempting to “walk in newness of life” have the example of the reparation of King David along with the conversions of so many saints.  Just like those saints, we must use our falls to our advantage, being urged on with greater zeal to fight harder than ever.  In doing so, our frailty becomes our strength, and our falls only propel us forward to our goal.

United Against Our Enemy

July 10, 2022By

5th Sunday After Pentecost 2022
We are sensitive to offenses against us, but what are we like to our neighbor?  Our love for God can be measured by our fraternity.  Catholics must be more united than ever before.  We must stand unified against the onslaught of vices and perversions of all kinds that the world sends to us.  This is especially necessary in the education of our youth.  Do not think for a moment that the fight is over and we are victorious, because our true battle is not merely against flesh and blood.

Hold True To Principle And To Christ!

July 3, 2022By

4th Sunday After Pentecost 2022
Our Lord chose to preach from the boat of St. Peter in the Gospel because this boat represented the Church from which alone God’s word is taught.  We are in need of God’s help and must never despise it no matter how unworthy and sinful we are.  When we die, we will be judged on how much we love Our Lord and how much we tried to save our neighbor.  We must be detached from the people and the objects of the world, because what matters is our soul, what matters is God.  Hold true to principle!  Hold true to Christ!

Fundamentals For Fatherhood

June 19, 2022By

2nd Sunday after Pentecost 2022
With the vocation of fatherhood being so attacked in the world today, it is more important than ever for Catholic fathers to hold fast to the holy principals of their vocation.  True manhood, with its accompanying virtues of perseverance, responsibility, and love of neighbor, is the essential foundation for this vocation.  The father as the head of the family is responsible before all others for, not only the intellectual, but also the spiritual education of his children.  In following the example of the great saintly fathers of Catholic history, men will be able to meet the expectation of this most necessary calling.

Guarantee of Heaven

June 16, 2022By

Feast Of Corpus Christi 2022
The Mass, renewing our Savior’s death on the cross, replaced all the rites of the Old Law.  None are excluded from this sacrifice unless they should decline the invitation.  We faithful strive daily for union with Christ in the Holy Eucharist, and we hope to die doing so.  This is the food to strengthen us on our journey back to heaven.  We are made in God’s image and have been given the ability to choose so that we might use it to choose Him.  Our Lord leaves us free and does not compel us in this choice.  Let us receive Christ’s Body now as a foretaste of heaven to come.

A Crown For The Trinity

June 12, 2022By

Trinity Sunday 2022
Although the feast of the Holy Trinity did not exist in the earliest days of the Church, today it is presented as a crown of glory to the Divine Majesty. Belief in the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity, all equal in nature and perfections, is not only necessary for our own salvation, but it is a dogma that we are called to share with the unbelieving world. “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,” is a command to all of us.

Spirit Of The New Law

June 5, 2022By

Pentecost Sunday 2022
Sunday is a day sanctified by God.  From the creations of the angels to the Resurrection of Our Lord, and now the feast of Pentecost, this day has been made holy in a special way.  The Holy Ghost descended upon that small group of disciples to institute the New Law and inspire them to spread the Good News.  They preached for the conversion of thousands of souls and the growth of their own personal holiness.  We continue this mission to this very day.  We must purify our intentions and refuse to be satisfied with anything less than the Greatest Treasure of all, possession of God Himself.

God Wants Our Whole Heart

May 29, 2022By

Sunday After The Ascension 2022
We, as Catholics, must not lead a double life.  God desires our whole heart.  When we are told that we must “watch in prayer,” this means that we must be on guard against both the enemy and occasions of sin.  What a wonderful reward we are offered for the practice of charity by Christ’s words, “charity covers a multitude of sins.”  An act as simple as feeding our family is a corporal work of mercy.  With the practice of fortitude, we can remain steadfast in the Faith, overcome the despondency the devil attempts to create in us, and continually grow in devotion.
