Homily #101017 ( 19min) Play – Our Lord gives us the parable in today’s Gospel of the unjust judge who cares nothing about God nor man, but after being pestered enough by the woman seeking justice he gives her request. Fr. Angelo preaches on the need to follow this woman’s example to pester God who is, instead, a just Judge, and so will all the more give us all that is good. Not only is it good to keep pestering good but Jesus give us a command to do so. He know all that we need ahead of time but we need to show him our trust in his goodness by continuing to beseech him even when we get tired of praying.

Homily #100530 ( 26min) Play – For Holy Trinity Sunday and the closing Mass for the Knights of Lepanto Father-Son Encampment, Fr Angelo preaches on how the Trinity is three Persons and yet united as if it where and Army, working as one for the salvation of all men. He stresses the need to acknowledge that the Second Person of the Trinity became man to win our salvation and so enable the Holy Trinity to dwell within us. Our hearts then become the divine fortress of the Trinity and this forms the base to sally forth and practice the virtues, especially charity.

Homily #100416 ( 05min) Play – Fr Ignatius preaches on the blessings that we have in Pope Benedict, how he has been acclaimed as perhaps the greatest theologian pope in the history of the Church. His encyclical Caritas et Veritate is so sensible as a world plan for peace, social justice and prosperity that one wonders why he is being targeted by the global mass media. Father relates this to today’s Gospel:
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words: going forth out of that house or city shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Amen I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

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.

Ave Maria!
Our “built in” sense of moral obligation and of justice are two roads that lead to the conclusion that man will continue to live even after his body has died.
