In today's homily, Msgr. McCormac explains how Jesus expands on His previous teachings. For example, thou shalt not kill expands to include anger between people, especially in families, and thou shalt not commit adultery expands to include looking at a man or woman with lust. He reminds us that "a little white lie" is not from God, and should be avoided. All of these commands must be taken into our hearts, and become a part of the fabric of our lives. The Lord has given us a free will, and He wants us to choose Him, every time, by choosing His teachings and making them a part of our lives. Have a Blessed Week!!

in today's homily, Deacon Bradley Moss reminds us of Jesus's message to us, that we are to be a "light to the world". We must ask ourselves how do we shine for others to see, or do we keep our light under a bushel. If we tuck Jesus away in a corner of our heart, the light of Christ is not able to light up much of ourselves. By putting Christ first in our lives, our light can shine for our families, our jobs, and in our daily duties. Listen to the words of today's homily, and ask yourself what is God saying to you. Please share this Podcast, and have a blessed week.

In today's homily, Msgr. Magee focuses on the Beatitudes, found in the gospel for the fourth Sunday of Ordinary Time. He tells us that the Beatitudes are not a list of rules, but more like a treasure map, telling us where happiness can be found. The Beatitudes call us to the heights of morality and holiness. Those who live according to these divine precepts are blessed beyond measure. The promises to those who live this high calling are great: They become children of God and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Please listen to today's Podcast, and if you got something out of it, share it with a friend or neighbor. Have a Blessed Week.

In this weekend's homily, Deacon Moss shares a personal experience while camping in his native Nebraska. He recounts his experience with the darkness after the sunset. If the night was cloudy, the darkness was profound, but on a clear night, even the light of the moon and stars shone through the darkness. He compares this to today's Gospel message where "The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; upon those who dwelt in the land of gloom a light has shone." Jesus chose this land because the people who came there came from all around, so that when the light came, it would go out to all of the nations. Of course, the light that Jesus brings is His very self. Jesus is with us in the joyful moments of our lives, and in a close and profound way in the darkness, too. The light of Christ pierces our through our darkness, and gives us hope. We receive the light of Christ at Baptism. This week, be the Light of Christ for someone. Have a blessed week.

In his homily, Deacon Moss reminds us of the Lord's call to each of us, to say yes to His will for us. In the Responsorial psalm, we sing "Here Am I Lord, I come to do your will." This surrender to God's will is our response to His part in our life. God has great plans for each and every one of us. We are called to trust His plan for us, and to remain open to His will for us. Please share this Podcast with a family member or a friend, and have a blessed week.

In today's homily, Deacon Mace reminds us that over the past few weeks, we have witnessed the progression in the manifestations of Jesus as the chosen one of God. John the Baptist has gone before the Lord, preparing His way, and the hearts of the people. As we see in today's gospel, Jesus's decision to be Baptized indicates His choice to follow the plan of the father. We are then challenged to look at our own lives. How is Jesus asking us to follow Him? Are we using God's gifts to us as a way to further His kingdom and mission? Let us pray that we will continue to live our lives according to the call that we have received through our own Baptism. Please share this week's podcast, and have a blessed week!!

In today's homily, Msgr. Magee shares his insights about the Feast of the Epiphany. We learn that the Magi were not Jews, but gentiles, honest men seeking the truth and where it would lead them. Through the three kings, God the Father makes it known that He has sent His only begotten son for all of mankind. Listen to today's homily, and allow our Lord to speak to your heart. Please share this podcast with someone, and have a blessed week!!

In today's homily, Deacon Mace reminds us that God designed the family for each of us. We have our biological family, and our Church family. We become a member of the church family through Baptism. In today's second reading, we are reminded of the responsibilities of each member of the family. Please remember Deacon Mace's dear wife Carol, who went home to the Lord last week. Her funeral Mass will be held at St. Frances Cabrini Church on Tuesday, January 6, 2026 at 9:30 AM. Please keep Mace and his family in your prayers. Thank you and have a blessed final week of 2025!!

In today's homily, Msgr. McCormac reminds us how the readings remind us to always trust in the Lord's plan for us. Yes, it is easier said than done, but something we must constantly remind ourselves to do. In the first reading, we learn how Ahaz says no to God's plan, and things don't work out very well for him or his people. In today's gospel, Joseph finds out that Mary is expecting, and intends to quietly divorce her, but God reveals to Joseph his plan, and Joseph accepts it. Listen to this excellent homily, and allow the Lord to speak to your heart. Please share this podcast with some one, and wishing you a Blessed Christmas!!

Today is Gaudete Sunday. The third Sunday of Advent is always Gaudete Sunday, and is marked with the lighting of the rose colored candle on the advent wreath, and the priest's rose colored vestments. It's meant to show that joy as we move closer to Christmas, and the celebration of Jesus's birth. In his homily this morning, Msgr. McCormac challenges us to think beyond the worldly preparation, such as buying gifts, decorating, and preparing for Christmas dinner. What are you doing to prepare yourself internally for Christ's birth on Christmas day? Listen to today's podcast and take time to make yourself ready for Christmas. Have a Blessed Week!!
