    Apr 3 2026

    Homily from Good Friday.

    A king without His armor.

    At the end of our lives, there are no defenses. At the end of Christ's life, He clings to no defenses. He has poured it all out, and all is taken from Him. All that is left is the Man Himself. At the end of our lives, we will only be left with our heart...everything else is taken.

  • 04/02/26 Holy Thursday: Everything is Given
    Apr 2 2026

    Homily from Holy Thursday.

    Jesus knew. And He still gave everything.

    At the end of Lent, we realize that we have been called to give. To give our time and attention to God in prayer. To give up things in fasting. To give help to those in need. Jesus gives at the Last Supper. He gives everything...fully knowing the truth of the people for whom He gives everything.
