This homily, which takes places during a Healing Mass that offers the Anointing of the Sick, shows how the healing we receive finds its source in the Lord’s grace.  What’s more, we not only receive Christ’s healing, but we also serve as the Lord’s healing instruments to those around us.

Fr. Andrew’s Cathedral School Mass Homily Podcast

Note: the reading today was taken from John 15:18-21.

“That’s hard!” How often did we say that as kids?  (How often do we say it as adults?!)  Yet facing the hard stuff is part of life – with God’s help as we strive to act as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Fr. Andrew’s Daily Mass Homily Podcast – Thursday of the 3rd Week of Easter

Daily Mass Readings

In both the 1st Reading and the Gospel we have references to teaching: Philip teaches the Ethiopian eunuch and Jesus instructs the people in the “Bread of Life” discourse.  Note how the teaching leads to the sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist!  May our faith help us to enter ever deeper into our life in Jesus Christ.

What gives people strength to carry on when the going gets tough?  To hang in there when it is painful, difficult, or oppressive?  The struggles of the early Church were sustained by their faith in Christ, who promised eternal life to all who believe in him.

Empowered by the Holy Spirit and filled with the love of the Risen Christ, the disciples continue to proclaim the Good News in the face of open hostility.  May we take their example to heart as we draw near to the Lord for the grace we need to confront the challenges and obstacles of daily life.
