Fr. Andrew’s Homily Podcast – 4th Sunday of Lent
This Gospel parable is well known and applicable to our lives today. There are times when we can identify with both sons – either in need of mercy or called to give it – and we find a Father who runs out to meet us where we are. May we open wide the doors of our hearts…and encounter Mercy.

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily Podcast – Wednesday of the 3rd Week of Lent
The Gospel today reminds us that as followers of Jesus Christ we look not only to the Lord’s teaching, but also to the salvation history that came before him. As the fulfillment of the Old Testament we can draw strength from the ways that God worked in life of the people of Israel, and we can apply these lessons to our world today.
Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily – Tuesday of the 3rd Week of Lent
Lent continues to drive home the point that forgiveness is crucial for our faith – an essential ingredient in a healthy spiritual life. Who do you need to forgive today? Who do you need to seek out and ask for forgiveness? Christ shows us the way and commands us to carry it out.

3rd Sunday of Lent Readings – Year C
The Lord is blunt and direct in the Gospel today: we are called to repent…or perish. The life-and-death quality of this command reminds us that God’s grace is ready to wash us clean – if we open our hearts through repentance and turn to the Lord. As God directed Moses and led the people from slavery to freedom, may we discover new life in Christ when we repent and believe in the Good News.
