A Reflection on the Readings for the Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, July 21st, 2024
Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time – June 30th, 2024
The Book of Wisdom comes late in the Old Testament tradition. It was written in Greek by an unknown Jewish author in Alexandria, Egypt probably about 100 years before the time of Christ.
A Reflection on the Readings for Sunday, June 9, 2024
Our first reading is the Genesis account of “Original Sin” or “The Fall of Man.” It gives us a metaphorical account of humanity falling out of God’s grace.
The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
This Sunday we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, also known as Corpus Christi Sunday. It is the celebration of the Eucharist, the source and summit of our faith.
The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity
The Holy Trinity is a mystery of faith that is inaccessible to reason alone. It is a mystery that cannot be known unless it is revealed by God.
6th Sunday of Easter – May 5, 2024
Our first reading this week from chapter 10 of Acts shows us the spread of the church into the Gentile community.
Fifth Sunday of Easter – April 28, 2024
Chapter 9 of St. Luke’s “The Acts of the Apostles” tells us about the conversion of St. Paul, which continues the overall theme of “Acts” concerning the development of the church in the first century.
Fourth Sunday of Lent, April 21, 2024
This Sunday, the Fourth Sunday of Easter, is also known as “Good Shepherd Sunday,” and a reading of our gospel for this Sunday will make that apparent.
Divine Mercy Sunday 2024
The first thing we should notice about our readings for this Sunday, the second Sunday of Easter, also known as Divine Mercy Sunday, is that our first reading does not come from the Old Testament as we expect on most Sundays.
