Catholic Cardinal Reflections

June 2, 2019 - Christ said, "I am with you always". If that is the case, we must live and breathe Jesus to others.

May 19, 2019 - We need to make a little time for God in our lives, which means, how do we find the treasure in others? Jesus' second commandment is to love others as you love yourself. Take time to appreciate the gifts of God's good creation- His people and the world. Sometimes that can hurt, but why be afraid with God in your heart?

May 5, 2019 - "Go and find someone else to love", was the message a boy learned when he was no longer able. It is the lesson from today's gospel. "Feed my shee." said Jesus.

April 28, 2019 - On this Divine Mercy Sunday, Thomas doubted that Christ had risen until he saw Jesus; is our faith being tested too? Jesus wants us to touch our neighbors by spreading the joy and love God spreads on us. Mercy means steadfast love- commit that to God.

April 21, 2019 - Fr. Bob recounts three stories that summarize the Paschal mystery. Jesus altered the light of the world 2000 years ago and He continues to permeate the world today.

April 20, 2019 - We look in all the wrong places for love. Jesus gave himself to us in the Last Supper.. Why not put our faith in his love? Take the Jesus way as a new way of living. Go out and do random acts of kindness- make time for friends and enemies, give bread to the poor, notice the beauty of the day.

April 19, 2019 - The Gospel of the Lord's Passion according to John, followed by the Choir's song, "Greater Love"

April 18, 2019 - Watching Notre Dame burn reminded Fr. Xavier that while cathedrals are prayerful places, they are not the rock of the church; we are. Just as Jesus pours his life into us over and over, we need to love each other and come closer to Him.

April 14, 2019 - Fr. Dominic asks us to put ourselves in Jerusalem during our Lord's Passion. How would we have understood what was going on and felt during the proceedings?

April 7, 2019 - Judging others destroys your heart. You are called to share God's healing gifts with others through affirmation of their humanity.
