April 30, 2017.mp3 Today's Gospel (Luke 24:13-35) is the story of the Walk to Emmaus when two disciples unknowingly encounter the Risen Christ. Would you like Jesus to accompany you on the way? We need only have to make ourselves available to Him. He listens to each of us. What do you want your Eucharist to be? Invite Him.

June 25, 2017.mp3 We move into the longer season of Ordinary Time. Fr. Gerry reflects on the rich Readings of this day — how deeply God knows and loves each one of us & growing our personal relationship with Him. Jesus addresses the disciples and their fear. He assures them to trust Him and know He is with us and guides us. Our number one vocation is who we are in Jesus Christ.

September 24, 2017.mp3 Matthew's Gospel today is certainly challenging! Jesus teaches us through the parable in MT 20:1-16 with the story of the laborers and the generous landowner who pays the same wages to the latecomer workers as the earlybird workers. When the earlybirds complain, the landowner asks, "Are you envious because I am generous? Thus, the last will be first, and the first will be last.” Listen to Fr. Gerry's reflections on this.

March 26, 2017.mp3 Listen as Fr. Gerry takes us through the deep meaning in the story in today's Gospel (John 9:1-41) of Jesus healing the man who had been blind from birth. This is another great teaching on the progression of coming to an understanding of Jesus and growing in a personal relationship with Him. …
February 26, 2017.mp3 Today Fr. Gerry focuses on the Readings. Isaiah assumes a mother can never forget her child. God our Father never forget any of us either. But, we sometimes feel maybe God has abandoned us when we face extreme hardship. But, God doesn't divert these troubles. Rather, He walks with us. We just tend to turn to Him when all else has failed. Worry doesn't serve us, yet still we worry.

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 …

Please join us this evening for our Holy Thursday Mass of the Lord’s Supper @ 7PM.
...during supper, fully aware that the Father had put everything into his power and that he had come from God and was returning to God, he rose from supper and took off his outer garments. He took a towel and tied it around his waist. Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist.
Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, “Unless I wash you, you will have no inheritance with me.”
