Homily #090906 ( 08min) Play – Today Fr. Ignatius preaches on the Gospel which tells us “You cannot serve God and mammon.” “Therefore be not solicitous for your life . . . nor for your body . . . For your father knoweth that you have need of all these things. Seek ye therefore first the Kingdom of God and His justice.” This is telling us to walk in the spirit instead of the flesh.

Homily #080509 ( 08min) Play – As we reflect on Paul’s apostolic journey, we can take courage in Paul’s example of keeping up the evangelical fight despite the problems caused by the Devil, the world, and the flesh. For, Paul had two advantages: men want God, and God wants the salvation of men. We have these same advantages.
Ave Maria! Mass readings
