You Were Within Me, But I Was Outside
Dear Brothers and Sisters, The Word today is perfect for this celebration of Trinity Sunday. Keep in mind that we have no idea what the Trinity is no matter how many theologians there are who have studied the subject. From what the Lord revealed to us we know that there is one God and three…

The Soul’s Most Welcome Guest!
Peace, Brothers and Sisters, Perhaps people know a lot about the Holy Spirit and the gifts and fruits that he gives us as we celebrate Pentecost.

We Are Behind Locked Doors Also
Dear Brothers and Sisters, The doors were locked and no one could enter, even the Lord, for fear of the Jews. This was the situation of the apostles even one week after the resurrection. They were gathered together on the evening of the new sabbath (Sunday) to ‘do this in memory of me’. To do…

The Angel Sat Upon The Stone!
Dear Brothers and Sisters, Last night was a wonderful night as the Easter Exultet was sung for us. I have to confess one thing: I was moved when I heard it. I was filled with joy that our God could love us in this way that he has this patient love for you and for…
