Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
Catholics have no problem with the Eucharistic presence of Jesus Christ. Since it is a mystery, our understanding is imperfect. Scripturally we have the Last Supper and the suffering and death of Jesus on the cross. Both realities are confirmed by the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior.
One thing is seen. Another is grasped. We use the senses of the body and the senses of faith. ~ Fr. Matt
The Most Holy Trinity
The Holy Trinity of God is the source of the universe. The relationships are deeper than the flimsy triangular lines we use to describe this mystery. The scriptures embody the unshakeable love God has for us. ~ Fr. Matt
Pentecost Sunday
The Tower of Babel story haunts us in life. If we do things just for ourselves, our power, our glory, we will be thwarted by the cleverness of God. Being connected with the Holy Spirit gives us the potential that what we are filled with can be shared if only we tip over and low God’s gifts to fill our environment. ~ Fr.. Matt
Seventh Sunday of Easter
Is the Easter season to be explained visually or verbally? It’s now our turn to be Christ to the world. ~ Fr. Matt
