God’s presence is ever in search of a dwelling place.  The unconfineable divine presence has chosen to dwell among us.   ~ Fr. Matt

All of God’s communications with us is personal. The Ten Commandments are not a set of rules but rather words to live by. On this Gaudete Sunday may the dialogue we have with the Divine impact every facet of our human experience.        ~ Fr. Matt

A few facts about Mark’s gospel. As the people who personally knew the Lord Jesus were dying. The oral tradition became a written entity. Mark was the first to write down the stories of the Lord. He used a geographical and Christological approach to the story of Jesus. Marks it he most brief of all Gospels yet he gives many details at a quick pace. Let’s enjoy this ride into the life of Jesus with St. Mark.           ~ Fr. Matt

Advent is a time of waiting. The prayers of Advent ask us to yield to God, to surrender to his will, to wait for God. We are the clay, God is the potter. We have no claim for the design of our life or to ask for a peculiar specification. Let us acquiesce to God’s gentle mercy and forgiveness.             ~ Fr. Matt
