Fr. John Jaddou - Christmas by Chaldean Diocese of St. Thomas the Apostle USA

Fr. Bryan Kassa gave this talk on Christmas at St. Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church. He spoke about the word "manger" being in the Gospel 3 times and how "manger" comes from the Latin word which means, "to eat." He spoke about the manger being a place where the animals came to eat and it was no coincidence that Jesus was place in the manger after Mary gave birth to Him. How by Jesus being placed in the manger, was His way of saying, "I want to feed you." He preached about Jesus feeding us today in 2 ways - the Eucharist and the Holy Bible.

Fr. Bryan Kassa gave this talk on the 4th Sunday of Advent at St. Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church. He preached about St. Joseph and how throughout his life, he was always willing to sacrifice his comforts for God. He challenged us about getting out of our comfort zone because if God is calling us to do so then we will find true joy since that is God's ultimate goal for us!

Fr. Bryan Kassa gave this homily on the 3rd Sunday of Advent at St. Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church. He preached about Zachariah and how we heard in the Gospel that he spoke prophecy and through his prophecy, he was able to bring hope, faith and joy to those around him. Prophecy means to speak words that will bring hope, faith and joy to others. He preached about speaking prophecy to others and allowing others to be prophets for us.

Fr. Bryan Kassa gave this talk at St. Thomas Chaldean Catholic Church on the 2nd Sunday of Advent. He preached about Mary's docility which means to be teachable and coachable regarding her vocation. A vocation means "to call" and how God was calling Mary to be the Mother of God and how she accepted her vocation with docility. He preached about all of us having a primary vocation and secondary vocation in life.
