Sermon From 24th Sunday After Pentecost 2013 Father Violette✟ We must first love God, then our neighbor, and then love ourselves according to God’s Will. The three theological virtues are freely given, not earned. When we reach heaven, faith and hope will no longer be needed, only charity will remain. We practice charity, which is…
Sermon From All Souls Day 2013 This beautiful Mass for the Holy Souls in Purgatory has its own sequence entitled “Dies Irae” which means the Day of Wrath. It is a warning to the living of the judgments of God but ends with hope of happiness in heaven. Today is proof that the debt for…
Sermon From The Feast Of All Saints 2013 Our Lord in the Gospel teaches the Beatitudes which show the blessedness of the saints. We must have great desire to be holy and we can achieve this with prayer and effort. Although non-Catholics criticize devotion to the saints they are not following Christian practice which dates…

Sermon From 14th Sunday after Pentecost 2013 The time between the Assumption and the feast of the Seven Sorrows is considered Our Lady’s thirty days. The Mass texts of these feasts and that of the Immaculate Heart show her quality as Co-Redemptrix. This adds fervor to the devotion we already have to our heavenly Queen…

Sermon From The 9th Sunday After Pentecost 2013 – 10am Mass Tomorrow is the feast of the great penitent, St. Mary Magdalen. Early in life she fell into sin which made her like Satan. However, Our Lord’s love frees us from sin. Some, like the Pharisees, rejected His love. Even mortal sins can be forgiven…
