First Friday Conference – March 2015 We know the story of Saints Perpetua and Felicity from their firsthand account.  During one of the general persecutions of the Church, these two heroic, young women gave their lives for Christ.

Lent Restores Peace

Ash Wednesday 2015 Not one word is said about punishment or damnation in the readings for this Mass, and that should give a hint to Catholics about the true spirit of this season.  There is no such thing as a private sin.  Not only are all our sins known to the heavenly court, but the…

Our Hearts Will Be Revealed

Sermon From Good Friday 2014 We ask the Blessed Mother to help us through this liturgy, because it was she who stood at the foot of the cross.  Because of the elements of joy and paschal anticipation in the Mass, it is not fitting for this day in which all joy has been suppressed.  The…

The Sole Means of Salvation

Sermon On Holy Thursday 2014 This day we celebrate the institution of the Mass, the Holy Eucharist, and the Priesthood – the only vocation created directly by God.  The saints tell us that it would be easier for us to exist without the Sun than without the Mass.  Our presence at the Mass shows God’s…

The Summary of Holy Week

Sermon From Palm Sunday 2014 In the liturgy of Palm Sunday we are shown by Holy Mother Church the summary of the entire Holy Week.  Christ allowed Himself to be given regal praise this day, and we continue that celebration in the blessing and distribution of palms, which are a sign of victory.  The ancient…

The Cost of Redemption

Sermon On Passion Sunday 2014 During the season of Passiontide, we see the cost of our Redemption.  The statues are veiled and every consolation is removed from us so that our attention may be focused on the sufferings of Christ alone.  We see in the Gospel the sin against the Holy Ghost in which one…
