For this Lenten season, we are diving back in the archives to offer select homilies from Fr. Scott. We hope these reflections help you in your Lenten journey.

 This week Fr. Scott begins a series on how to read, reflect, and respond to Sacred Scripture. We also included some bonus content this week about Fr. Scott's parish being designated a pilgrimage site for the Jubilee Year of St. Francis of Assisi.

 This week, as we kick off Catholic Schools Week, we dip back into the archives for an interview Fr. Scott did about a year and a half ago with Kevin Weed, the Headmaster of St. Michael Academy, and Larry Rudnicki, the Executive Director of St. Michael Academy.  St. Michael Academy is a Chesterton Academy School located near Petoskey, Michigan, rooted in the Catholic classical tradition.
