8-14-2022--We hear the theme of “fire” for the Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time. Actually, each of us stand together on the night of the Easter Vigil bless the fire. The fire of the love that comes to us from the passion and is then shone to us in the light of the Baptismal candle. When we grow closer and closer in our relationship with the Lord, the light and fire that comes from the Holy Spirit burns within us. As we invite others into a relationship with the Lord, we help to set their hearts on fire with the light and love of the Lord. So that they can become both a “messenger” and “inviter” to others.

(Also, it requires patience.) Indeed, our faith, helps us to “prepare.” Remember this beautiful definition of faith … “faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen.”

7-10-2022--15th Sunday in Ordinary Time   A brief reflection on Saints God sends us…   Teachers of our faith tell us, “the measure of God’s judgement of the world at any given period of history is the ‘size of the Saints’ he sends to assist us in our time.”
