Br. Christopher, O.P. preaches at St. Dominic's on April 29th.  Christ abides with no need for a geographic location. He asks us to abide in Him as He abides in us and makes us holy much like the vine and it's relationship to the branch.

Fr. Corwin Low, O.P. preaches at St. Dominic's about the vocation of priesthood and the mystical side of the ordination, all part of the Sacrament of Holy Orders. This week's gospel about the Good Shepherd was a familiar metaphor used in the early Church, the persecuted Church, and ultimately for those men that Jesus has called to the priesthood. I am the Good Shepherd and I know mine and mine know me.

Fr. David Faruggia, O.P. preaches at St. Dominic's on Jesus as the Good Shepherd. There are two types of shepherd's the hired one and the owner. The hired one is only interested in money and getting paid, the owner will do anything to protect his flock. Jesus leads us safely home.

Br. Christopher preaches at St. Dominic's on Divine Mercy Sunday. It can seem that Mercy and Justice are opposing parties when really they are two sides of God's own coin.  Jesus is the coin.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P. preaches on the 5th Sunday of Lent at St. Dominic's about the raising of Lazarus.  Jesus understands our humanness and in his tears he demonstrates that and we can relate to that.

Fr. Jerome preaches on the 3rd Sunday of Lent about the meeting of the Samaritan woman at the well. A seemingly forbidden conversation turns to salvation by worshiping the one true God and abandoning false gods. What is getting in the way of your relationship with God?
