January 29, 2017.mp3 Fr. Gerry speaks on the Beatitudes Jesus presented in the Sermon on the Mount in today's Gospel. (Mt 5:1-12A) How do you see the Beatitudes? Do you see them as impossible ideals? As goals to be achieved? As wishful blessings on those who suffer? Or, as hallmarks of God's Kingdom when it arrives? They are "Be-Attitudes." If we want to BE sons & daughters of God, how different can our ATTITUDE toward the Gospel, toward Him, and toward life make our experience!

January 1, 2017.mp3 Fr. Gerry gives his first homily of the new year looking toward what 2017 will look like for us as a Parish. Are we really working at believing what we profess? How will my growing relationship with Christ make it different this year? Will my experience of Worship and the Eucharist look like something new this year? The Incarnation came about because God wanted to love us up close, in a real relationship with Him. Do I know Him as God with us?

Please join us for The Feast of The Immaculate Conception of The Blessed Virgin Mary
TODAY - Friday, December 8th @ 10:00am
In teaching that Mary was conceived immaculate, the Catholic Church teaches that from the very moment of her conception, the Blessed Virgin Mary was free from all stain of original sin. This simply means that from the beginning, she was in a state of grace, sharing in God's own life, and that she was free from the sinful inclinations which have beset human nature after the fall.
