Question of the Week – July 25
The Jewish feast of the Passover was near, and the large crowds reclined, about five thousand in number. Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed them to those who were present. Our priests, fulfill this scripture passage at every Mass, during the Consecration of the Eucharist. Instead of performing the miracle of multiplying the […]
Question of the Week – July 18
Jesus said to His apostles, “Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” We, just like the people of that time are busy coming and going: with no time to rest, meditate or pray. The journey of life becomes more difficult with challenges. We can feel at a loss for answers […]
Question of the Week – July 11
The Lord knows His Apostles; He loves us; He sends us. The mission of the Church began long before Christ died.

The most important display of Jesus’ divine authority in today’s Gospel is not His ability to calm the raging sea, it is His loving care which calms the storms within […]
Question of the Week – June 13
Jesus wants to use each of us for the building up of His Kingdom. We may feel as though we cannot do much, that we are not as gifted as others, that we will not be able to make much of a difference, but that’s not true. The truth is that each one of us […]

Question of the Week – June 6
On this solemn feast we are called above all to faith in the fact, as revealed by the Lord Himself, that the Eucharist, the Holy Communion we partake of, is in fact, a reception of the very Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, whole and entire, in His glorified state. We do not […]
