The Mass is the fuel for our life in the world...and our life in the world is an extension of the Mass. The words, "The Lord be with you" are meant to prepare us for great things...dangerous things. When we hear them at the end of Mass, they prepare us to bring what we've done at the altar out to the world. Mass Readings from November 24, 2024: Daniel 7:13-14 Psalms 93:1, 1-2, 5Revelation 1:5-8 John 18:33b-37

    11/03/24 Made for Worship: Kingdom Priests

    Homily from the Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time. Worship is not about what we get, but about what we can give.

Mass Readings from November 3, 2024: Deuteronomy 6:2-6 Psalms 18:2-4, 47, 51Hebrews 7:23-28 Mark 12:28-34
