Friday School Mass 10.18.24
In this homily, I reflect on the inspiring life of St. Edward, a king known for his humility, patience, and deep connection with God. Despite his royal status, St. Edward exhibited profound goodness, cared for the poor, healed the sick, and avoided the pitfalls of power and greed. His story is a testament to the possibility of being both good and in charge, encouraging us all, adults and students alike, to seek goodness through faith in God. Join me as I share how St. Edward's life can inspire us to be a beacon of hope and goodness in our own lives.

Sunday mass 10.13.24
In this homily, I talk about an encounter with an elderly woman who had never been told that God delights in her. I use this story to explore the idea that while many of us know that God loves us, we often struggle to believe that He actually likes us. God’s love isn’t just a distant obligation; He enjoys being with us and delights in who we are. I also share my personal reflections on understanding God’s deep, personal love. If you’ve ever found it hard to feel God’s presence or are simply looking for a reminder of His love, this message offers insights into how God loves and likes each of us.

Sunday Mass 10.06.24
In this homily, I share stories from my ministry to highlight the enduring nature of marriage as a reflection of Christ's unconditional love. I recount a couple celebrating 40 years of marriage and a woman facing marital hardships. Despite difficult church teachings on marriage and divorce, I emphasize that they mirror God's unfailing commitment. Married couples are called to go beyond the 'honeymoon stage' and embody Christ's love, guiding each other towards heaven.
