Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily – Thursday of the 4th Week of the Year
Life offers its share of transitions, moments when we entrust our work to another and turn over our efforts into someone else’s care. Of course, that means that things are going to get done differently – maybe in a way that we would never do – and we learn how to let go and allow things to happen beyond our control. The key ingredient to this handoff? Trusting and relying on God to see it through.

Fr. Andrew’s Catholic Schools’ Week Homily Podcast
Jesus gives us the example of how we forgive one another. Forgiveness can be part of our lives in two special ways:
- Cultivating an attitude that looks for the good in others
- Helping others to forgive, especially when it is hard
Special blessings to all our Catholic Schools this week!

Fr. Andrew’s Homily Podcast – The Presentation of the Lord
The King of Glory comes to Jerusalem, but not in the way that people expect; rather, Mary & Joseph present their baby who is recognized by Simeon and Anna as the the Savior of the world. Simply put, God comes to us in unique and unexpected ways – inviting us to be on the watch for God’s presence in our lives and open to the little ways that the Lord can take our lives and do amazing things.

Fr. Andrew’s 4th Sunday of the Year Homily Podcast
Life has its share of heartache and hardship. We all face struggles, challenges, and conflict. The question is, what guides and directs the words we say and the actions we do? What aspect of our faith can serve as the essential compass to steer us through life? The answer: LOVE.

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily Podcast – Friday of the 3rd Week of the Year
The story of David and Bathsheba sounds like a Biblical soap opera, yet we are reminded that God’s grace overcomes sin – often through slow and steady growth that starts small. Like a mustard seed, our faith in Christ confronts the challenges of this world and grows into a love that casts out all sin in the light of Christ.

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily – Thursday of the 3rd Week of the Year & The Feast of St. Thomas Aquinas
The Light of Christ is like a lamp – meant to be set forth to give light to all. St. Thomas Aquinas, through his study and prayer, sought the Divine Light, and he offers us an example to follow today.

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily Podcast – the Feast of Sts. Timothy & Titus
We pass on the faith that was handed to us. Like Saints Timothy & Titus, we are part of a vast chain of disciples – sharing the faith we have received so that the Good News of Jesus Christ may continue to touch hearts in our world today.

Fr. Andrew’s 3rd Sunday of the Year Homily Podcast
We call upon the Spirit of the Lord to strengthen us, so that we in turn can share God’s Spirit with one another. Working together, like St. Paul’s example of a body, the Lord empowers us in community to bring the Good News to the world.
