Superior Priest Father Samuel Schneider

23APR23 (23aE3). The story of the Road to Emmaus has the first Mass where they have the Liturgy of the Word and Liturgy of the Eucharist. God wants to draw us to faith and love. He has drawn me with the Eucharist to grow and love more. This is not done through the secret, right action, but always being with Jesus as he is always with God the Father and with us. Be at peace with Being with Jesus.

02APR23 (23Easter). There are more details about the Resurrection then we may initially realize. The resurrection gives us founded hope for our faith. Jesus has risen from the dead and we can know that all that he told us and taught us is true. Let us come to the Eucharistic sacrifice with gratitude and reverence for the great gift here.

09APR23 (23Friday). Jesus died for us. His love and passion has no bounds. Let us always look upon the cross and know that God has no limits for what he is willing to do to bring us back into relationship with him.

02APR23 (23aPalm). The Passion of Jesus Christ not only refers to his suffering, but also his passionate love for us. He is so in love with us that he is willing to suffer and die for us. Wow! We should also be passionate for him. Two great ways that He shows us to be perfect in love is humility and obedience. Let us grow in our passionate love through this humility and obedience.

19MAR23 (23aL4). God uses physical things to effect things. With David he used Samuel’s anointing that made the Spirit rush upon him. In the Gospel Jesus uses spit and clay with the man’s action of washing to bring about healing. He continues to want to affect us with physical things in the Sacraments and most especially the Eucharist.

12MAR23 (23aL3). Jesus died for us while we were yet sinners. Think about that. Not while we were perfect or had our life together, but while we were sinners with no proof of correction. This is the unconditional love of God which we can not fathom. This is the knowledge we are called to live in.
