Hello, and Peace to you all. In my reading, I came across the following by a theologian from Wales named Matthew Henry. What he writes for us today is enough to give much to ponder. Matthew tells us, “Christ died. He left a will in which He gave His soul to the Father, His body…

Hello, I hope you had a good weekend. As I have been saying over the last few weeks that we are still in our Easter season and still basking in the light of the risen Christ. And as I have said, this cannot be just a season, but this time must be a time we…

Greetings. Hope all is well. Today, we hear in the Gospel about Jesus beginning to tell his beloved disciples that he is about to take his leave. He tells them that is necessary that he leaves, otherwise the Paraclete will not come. I am sure that the disciples were more shaken by Jesus’s pending departure than understanding…

Greetings, Have you ever take an inventory of your life? I mean one where you look at what you thought you were as a kid, and where you are now. What changes have taken place the int years past? Yes, we all “grow up”. We all are different from who we were as kids or…

Greetings. Hope all is well. I know that we all have had days when we become so overwhelmed with life that we don’t know which way to go. The harder we try to get things done the more complicated it becomes. At this point, we feel like running away to some place of peace and…

Hello, hope your weekend was good. As we are still in the celebrating Easter in these 50 days, we are reminded of just what this season means to us. The Easter event is the center and foundation of our or faith. In Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, He has released us all from the sin…

Hello, happy Sunday! Today, in our Gospel we here the story of Jesus with his disciples at the Last Supper. He is telling them that it is time for Him to take His leave to return to the Father. I don’t know about you, but I remember my first day in kindergarten. I could see…

Greetings to all. I thought I would have time today to get a few thoughts together but it seems this day is just getting away from me faster than I would like. Anyway today we remember on of the great theologians of the early Church. St. Athanasius (b.296 d.373) .  He was the bishop of…

Hello, and happy Friday. Today we remember St. Joseph as the patron saint of workers. This feast was established by the Church to off set, as it were, the holiday established in communistic countries, called May Day, in honor of the all the workers around the world. This holiday was especially celebrated in communistic countries. To…

Hello, hope all is well. I would think that we all have met people who try to be someone other than who they are. Some times some are able to pull this off very well. But every once in a while they let their “mask” fall and they reveal the person beneath who really they are. When we…

Hello. I wonder if you all are getting a little tired of me saying that Easter is not just a day, but it is a life to be lived. As I do my reading, I find that I am not alone in this thought. The great theologians of old, back up what I have said. Believe me, I…

Greetings to you all. I hope your weekend went well. A number of times I have mentioned that though we have celebrated the feast of Easter some three weeks ago we have the Easter season that will last for some four weeks to come. I came across this quote by St. Augustine of Hippo which…

Hello and happy Saturday. I hope you are able to get a little “me time” today. I am sure you all have encountered others who seem to handle whatever comes their way. In the midst of pain and suffering of whatever kind, they just seem to be peaceful. This is not to say that they…
