May 21, 2017 - All of us have power to some extent, but it means different things to different people. Society often equates it to wealth and prestige, but Jesus' power is the quiet power of love for others. Let us use our power wisely this week to serve another.

Preacher: Fr. Xavier Lavagetto, O.P.

May 14, 2017 - Jesus said, "I will prepare a place for you in my Father's house". What he means is that you must prepare yoursel for God's kingdom. Don't just read the gospel, *feel* the gospel. Don't just do a good deed, be part of another's struggles. When you receive the Eucharest, understand that Christ is inside you.

Preacher: Fr. Xavier Lavagetto, O.P.

May 7, 2017 - Today's readings are about sheep and the Good Shephard whose voice they recognize and abide. Whose voice do we listen to? How loud is God's presence in your life? Are we a good influence for others?

Preachet: Deacon John Kerrigan

April 30, 2017 - The Pope recently advocated for a radical love, one directed towards others. This includes coming to true faith in Christ, which the early disciples had, after Jesus revealed himself in the breaking of the bread. But this must be followed by dialog with others. We must share the good news with others.

Preacher Fr. Emmanuel Taylor, OP.

April 16, 2017 - Jesus joined the travelers on their way from Jerusalem, but they did not recognize the risen Christ, possibly because their distraction and lack of belief prevented them. The Resurrection reminds us to reflect on how Christ walks with us every moment of the day. We should look for the good things in others and keep them in our hearts.

Preacher: Fr. Xavier Lavagetto.

April 15, 2017 - With great love sometimes comes great suffering, and the greatest suffering is when love is unreturned. Jesus suffered death on the croiss because he loved us so much. Yet his resurrection gives us hope that we will never die if we love Christ and live in love for all his people.

Preacher: Fr. Xavier.

April 14, 2017 - Jesus embraces both passion and love. We need suffering in order to grow and appreciate the gifts God gives us. Today we must ponder the suffering Jesus willingly endured because of his great love for us.

Preacher: Fr. Emmanuel Taylor.

April 13, 2017 - On this Holy Thursday night, we gather to remember that Jesus humbled himself and became a slave while presaging his death. He died ignominously that we might have eternal life. Let us walk in his path as we share his message of love with others.

Preacher: Fr. Xavier Lavagetto.

April 9, 2017 - This is a week of Journeys. Jesus challenges us to live for others as we follow his journey in becoming a slave, entering Jerusalem in triumph, and dying for us while promising us eternal life.
