2022-03-0607 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul6th Sun OT, Have you been blessed?In the Gospel today Jesus looks right at his disciples and says something that seems quite the contrary of what one would expect or think about being ‘blessed’.

2022-02-1313 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul2nd Sat OT ‘The Great Crisis in the Church today’Mark 3:20-21 “He is out of his mind.”Jesus relatives knew Jesus but they did not really know him, who he really was. They said he was ‘out of his mind’. The great crisis in the church today is many within the Church know about Jesus but they don’t really ‘know him’. Evangelization has to be more than words about Jesus but facilitating an encounter with the risen Lord.

2021-12-1703 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul2nd Sat Advent ‘The key to understanding all reality’ Matthew 17:9, 10-13 St John Paul II said the key to understand all reality is the loss of fatherhood. The first reading that refers to what the prophet Malichi said: “How awesome are you, Elijah, in your wondrous deeds! You were destined, it is written, in time to come to put an end to wrath before the day of the LORD, To turn back the hearts of fathers toward their sons, and to re-establish the tribes of Jacob.

2021-12-0408 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul33rd Sat OT, ‘Now and at the hour of my death’Luke 20:27-40 Some Sadducees, those who deny that there is a resurrection, came forward and put this question to Jesus, saying.. The question raised in the gospel is not really about ‘whose wife will she be in heaven’ but do you believe in the Resurrection. At the end of our liturgical year, the Church invites us to reflect on our ‘now‘ moment and connect it with the ‘hour of our death’.
2021-11-2009 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul31st Sat OT, ‘There is only room for one throne’Luke 16:9-15 Jesus said to his disciples: “I tell you, make friends for yourselves with dishonest wealth, so that when it fails, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellingsIgnatius’ Principle and Foundation grace of holy indifference which expose our inordained attachments, will help free us from our inordinate attachments and live for that which we were created, to praise, reverence and serve god.
2021-11-0607 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul30th Sat OT ‘Turning the Tables’Luke 14:1, 7-11 On a sabbath Jesus went to dine at the home of one of the leading Pharisees, and the people there were observing him carefully.In today’s gospel, Jesus turns the tables on Pharisees, exposing their pride and insecurity and revealing absolute necessity of the virtue of humility.
2021-10-3107 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul29th Sat OT, ‘ Salvaging our Spiritual Lives’Luke 13:1-9 ‘For three years now I have come in search of fruit on this fig tree but have found none. So cut it down. Why should it exhaust the soil?’ What must I do to bear good fruit? The paradox of the spiritual life, is primarily not really doing but letting something be done unto us. Imitating Mary we first have to “Let it be done unto me” and then fruitfulness will follow.
2021-10-2307 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and SoulFeast of Guardian Angels, ‘They Have Your Back’Matthew 18:1-5, 10 “See that you do not despise little ones, for I say that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.” Devotion to our Guardian Angels is not just a piety for children, they are given to us by God and intercede for us constantly.
2021-10-0206 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul25th Sat OT, ‘Spoiler Alert & Little Bit of a Buzz Kill’Luke 9:43b-45 While they were all amazed at his every deed, Jesus said to his disciples, “Pay attention to what I am telling you. The Son of Man is to be handed over to men.” Jesus wants to deter the disciples and each of us from falling into the trap of seeking our identity from the approval of the world, or others. Our identity is received not achieved.
2021-09-2505 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul24th Sat OT “Life Lesson from High School Hurdles”Luke 8:4-15 “But as for the seed that fell on rich soil, they are the ones who, when they have heard the word, embrace it with a generous and good heart, and bear fruit through perseverance.” ‘Nunc Coepi’, Latin for “Begin Again”, an attitude, a spiritual posture of trusting in Divine Mercy which is essential for finishing the race.

That one is like a man building a house, who dug deeply and laid the foundation on rock”.

2021-09-1108 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul22nd Sat OT, ‘Finding the heart of true worship in a field of grain‘Luke 6:1-5The chosen episode number 6, season 2 depicts the scene from todays gospel of Jesus and his disciples being confronted by the Pharisees for violating the sabbath.

2021-09-0406 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and SoulSt. Augustine, WIDGET ‘Discovering our Gifts & Letting our Light Shine’Matthew 25:14-30What are your ‘talents’? Patrick Lencioni, author of Five Dysfuncitons of a Team, came up with ’WIDGET’ 6 types of working genius. Google it! (Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanizing, Enablement, Tenacity) When I discover where God has naturally gifted me, I can embrace those areas and recognize areas I just am not naturally gifted in, and therefore need others in the mystical body of Christ to help me. St. Irenaeus said, “The glory of God is man fully alive.”
2021-08-2817 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul20th Sat OT, ‘Four Words that pierce the heart’John 21:15-17Jesus asked Peter “Do you love me”… an invitation to an immediate & profound examination of conscience , to recognize that sin is not just a one sided equation and then an invitation to try to absorb the mystery of how much he loves us.
2021-08-2107 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and SoulSt Maximilian Kolbe ‘What are the marks of true friendship?’John 15:12-16Jesus said to his disciples: “This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you.What are the marks of true friendship?
2021-08-1405 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul18th Sat OT, ‘What if you were 5 times bolder?’Matthew 17:14-20‘Because of your little faith..’. There are areas in our heart where we just don’t believe or trust in God’s goodness. Need to ask the Lord to increase our faith in who He is, and in who He says we are. To believe like St Paul, ‘That I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me‘.

Every vocation has sacrafice built into it because every vocation is about loving the other. The journey for all of us is to live yes, yes. To say yes to the Lord and not to change our minds but that is a life long process that requires humility, and transformation that comes from the sacraments to encourage us on that journey.
2020-09-2707 minHomilies to Heal the Heart and Soul23rd Sun OT, What I Learned From Ostriches Today’s gospel is about reconciliation and the power of praying with others for whatever concerns may weigh deeply on our hearts. It makes me reflect on how I have been dealing with the increasing tensions that have been building in our world over covid, racial, economic and political divides. Everything become so toxic, but tuning it all out like an Ostrich sticking its head in the sand is not what Jesus would have us do.

In the Gospel today Jesus changes Simon‘s name to Peter, something of a spiritual Call Sign. Fr. Herbert Alphonso SJ wrote a short book “Discovering your Personal Vocation’, in short, to discover the call sign God has for each of us. Let’s turn the question around and ask Jesus, “Who do you say that I am?” To discover that name is a game changer for the rest of your life!
