Come To Me, Come And Eat!

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Last week Philip thought the answer to the crisis Jesus faced with feeding thousands of people was money.  Andrew saw that the answer was a little boy who had his lunch and was not afraid to give it away.   When you’re faced with an unsolvable problem what do you choose, what…

Dear Brothers and Sisters, We continue to see the compassion of God for his people this week in the miracle of Elisha in the first reading (2 Kings 4: 42-44) when his servant feeds a hundred men with twenty barley loaves, and with much left over.   Earlier in the same book Elisha helps an impoverished…

Half-Truth: The Eucharist Is Only A Symbol

Dear Brothers and Sisters, This week for the feast of Corpus Christi we wanted to take a look not at a half-truth that exists in society but one that exists among Christians.  Perhaps you never gave much thought to what the Church teaches concerning the Body and Blood of Christ and for this reason this…
