2nd Sunday after Easter 2023 There is only one fold and one shepherd. We have complete trust in Christ as our Good Shepherd, and it is the call of all priests and bishops to watch over the flock and to bring those who are lost back to the true fold. As we have heard before…
Easter Vigil 2023 Everything is dark at the beginning of this ceremony, just as it was before the creation of the cosmos. The darkness is representative of the Old Testament, while the Lumen Christi, or Light of Christ, is the New Testament. The completion of the Passover takes place this evening. Evidence has been found…
Easter Vigil 2022 The Easter Vigil is the culmination of our Lenten retreat and especially for the catechumens who are baptized and who will receive their first Holy Communions at the Mass which follows. The Liturgy brings light to the darkness of the world of sin and sings the praise of Our Lord’s Paschal candle. …
4th Sunday After Epiphany 2022 This week we will bless throats in honor of St. Blaise. The Holy Ghost through St. Paul writes that we should owe no man anything except to love one another. This endorses living debt free, as much as possible, but it does not include being free of charity which all…
The Holy Name Of Jesus 2022 This day can also be called the feast of God’s friendship with man. It began to be celebrated in the fifth century but its origins reach back to the Old Testament when God first gave His Name of “Yahweh” which means “I am, Who Am” to Moses. The reverence…

Easter Vigil 2021 During this Vigil in anticipation of Our Lord’s Resurrection at midnight we begin outside in the darkness by lighting the Paschal Fire. Then we carry the Light of the World in through His Candle which is praised in the exquisite praeconium called the Exsultet. Prophetic readings and the Litany of the Saints…
Sexagesima Sunday 2021 Saints this week are our friends like St. Apollonia. The Liturgy is our ordinary means of sanctification and reception of sacramentals is a practical aspect of this. St. Paul is the dominant character during this season of Septuagesima and tells in the Epistle of all he has sacrificed in fulfilling Our Lord’s…
First Friday – Feast Of St. Agatha 2021 With the beginning of the Easter Cycle through the season of Septuagesima it is a good time to review what the Sacred Liturgy is and how it leads our spiritual lives through the purgative, illuminative and unitive states.
