Homily on the Lord’s Ascension./ Mothers Day

Dearly Beloved, today we celebrate Christ’s Ascension into heaven.  The hope of what awaits all of us. His promise was where he is, there his servants will also be. The ascension is not the end of the earthly life of Christ but more importantly the completion of his mission on earth. He returns again in obedience to the will and plan of HIS FATHER.

Homily for the 5^th Sunday of Easter

Dearly Beloved, as we come to the 5^th Sunday of Easter, we are again presented with a very powerful image of the vine. This imagery is the last in a series of 7 “I AM” statements from our Lord.  (Does anyone know any such passages in the gospel of John where Jesus used an “I AM” statement). We can go through them now.

1.  ‘I am the bread of life. (John 6:35)

2.  ‘I am the light of the world. (John 8:12)

3. “I am the door. (John 10:9)

Homily for 5^th Sunday of Lent

Dearly Beloved, we gather on this 5^th Sunday of Lent. Another great sign is given for our reflection. A great miracle. A dead man comes back to life. Death will continue to be our fiercest enemy.  How sad it is to lose a loved one. It’s more sad when we were not there in one way or another when they needed us. We had kept postponing our love, our attention, care etc. Hoping each day that we were going to make it up to them. Then suddenly we hear they are gone.  Dead.
