  • "I" Witness: Wk 1: First Witnesses, Easter Sunday

    Happy Easter!

    God bless you for being such a witness to Jesus rising from the dead. You are an I Witness! Not an E-Y-E witness because we were not there but an I Witness, because you are giving witness to Jesus rising from the dead by what you tell others and by the way you live your life, if you live like a true believer. Yes if you live like a true believer, teach and tell others about Christ, you are an I Witness.

    But for many of us there is also a certain type of doubt. The doubt that casts its shadow over Easter is the doubt that you and I can really walk in newness of life, that we can become a new creation, that we can be changed and filled with the Holy Spirit. We might feel that the stone in our life is too massive, too big. That Jesus rose to new life is easy to believe. We doubt that we can rise to new life in him. What is the solution for such doubt. We have some suggestions.

  • Lent 5: Undefeated: Winning Over Temptation Wk 5: In Christ Alone

    You can defeat temptation. Sometimes we are tempted to doubt our faith. Keeping Jesus at the center of your life will overcome that doubt. The community falls apart when Christ is not the center. Christ needs to be the center of our lives, homes and community. The sacraments of Confession and Eucharist will help you keep Christ at the center of your life.

    Pray the prayer, “Come Holy Spirit” help us to stay undefeated by keeping Christ at the center of our lives, thoughts and actions. Help us to be aware of your Holy Presence in the sacraments of Confession and Eucharist.

  • Lent 4: Undefeated: Winning Over Temptation Wk 4 Love Heals

    Jesus wants to heal you. Why? Because God is love --Jesus is the Son of God and Love heals.

    The temptation is to refuse to see, to want to remain blind. Sometimes we think it’s easier to remain in the dark than for us to heal and/or change. When we see things as they really are, sometimes we will need to change, especially if we want our situation to change, or if we need healing of some type.  Sometimes in order for us to heal we have to be able to forgive. Sometimes we just need help. We need Jesus' help.
