Homily for the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time 2018
Dearly Beloved, Grace and peace to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who in his great love and mercy has bought all of us together into his presence that we may come to share in this great mystery that we have as followers of Christ. May he be praised for ever and ever. Amen.
Homily for 16th Sunday in ordinary time
Dearly beloved, we thank God who by his mercies has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavens. We thank him who has made it possible for us to gather in his presence as one big family. We recall in the book of Genesis; chapter 12 when God chose Abraham and the Jewish nation from among all nations. He chose them to be a light through which all other nations on earth will come to know him. That is, through these 12 tribes, all others may come to know God.

2nd Corinthians
Dearly beloved, two weeks ago, while celebrating fathers’ day, I used the occasion to encourage you to read the Second letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians. I hope, definitely not all, but some, took the opportunity with the background we looked at to read. I did say we will take time again this Sunday to give a summary to the rest of the book. Those who did read will find additional insight to many of the things you have read already.
Homily on the Solemnity of the Nativity of John the Baptist.
Dearly beloved, we are celebrating today the birth of someone who in the words of Jesus is the greatest of all those born of women (Lk 7:28 – My focus is not on this this text though). Unlike the other gospels, only St. Luke records this detail of the nativity of John the Baptist.

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.
