Homily #120504 ( 05min) Play – In early Christian times Christianity was called “The Way” and those who followed it where called disciples or followers, students of The Way, who would be imitators of Christ and His Way. In this way others are able to see Christ in us and so we can lead others to eternal life as we ourselves walk toward that reward which God has prepared for us.

Homily #120412 ( 10min) Play – On Easter Sunday Jesus appeared to the disciples and they thought that they were seeing a ghost because they did not understand and trust Our Lord’s words that He would rise again. Jesus helps them by eating in front of them and showing them his wounds to let them know that He completely overcame the power of death, letting them apprehend the magnitude of His victory when the clouds of doubt and defeat where weighing upon the early Church. Let us remember this Easter joy when we witness the many tribulations and seeming defeats for the Church that will inevitably come.

Homily #120410 ( 10min) Play – Our Lord is called a Rabbi, Teacher, by both His enemies and His friends. He spoke openly for the truth and died for the truth. But, Fr. Angelo preaches on how He was more than a teacher because He spoke with an authority beyond the scribes and Pharisees because He embodied, or really incarnated, the truth in Himself and the resurrection of this body is therefore His greatest teaching moment. By listening to His words of truth we too will rise from bodily death to eternal life to be with Him and His Father.

Homily #120212 ( 25min) Play – At 16 minutes into the homily the recording fails and has to be restarted. The original homily was over 30 minutes.

Today we see our Lord fulfilling the prophecy of the One to come, the One who is to bring salvation to a fallen humanity. Man rules over man with burdensome minute details, but God lightens our hardships. Great good and evil starts from the top and flows down to us. We have a great responsibility to pray that our Lord and Lady send us God fearing leaders, inside and out the Church.

Homily #111231 ( 17min) Play – On this 7th day of the Octave of Christmas Fr. Angelo, based on the Prologue of St. John, preaches on the teaching authority of Jesus Christ who was born as a meek and humble babe from the Virgin Mary who died an ignominious death on the Cross for the sake of those who offended His Divine dignity.
