“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” Happy Mother’s Day! Whether you are a new mother, a mother for many years, an expectant mother, or simply a son or daughter of a mother, you certainly understand the essential truths that define motherhood. I would suggest that those truths include being selfless, compassionate, understanding, patient, kind and loving. A mother motivates, encourages, disciplines, instructs, and listens. Perhaps the most impressive quality of an “ideal” mother (for instance, our Blessed Mother)

Hey Y'all! I had some surgery the week after Easter. The procedure corrected a hernia. The hernia started with a hard cough and then for years I nursed it, watching my belly button grow out instead of in. Post-surgery, I have a normal belly again – well, big but normal.

On behalf of our Mission Trip Team, THANK YOU SO MUCH! A few weeks ago we returned from our week-long Mission Trip to Poland with full hearts, open minds, and mixed emotions. Our experience, as Fr Reynold mentioned in his recent pastoral message, was “heavy.” Heavy with stories of war, suffering, and loss. But it was also a trip loaded with faith, hope, and love. And we want to tell you all about it! Our trip would not have been possible

In 2000, Saint John Paul II designated the second Sunday of Easter, which is the eighth and final day of the Easter Octave, as Divine Mercy Sunday. He believed that the Divine Mercy of God was the key to understanding the joy of Easter. Today’s gospel scene provides insight into this great mystery of the Divine Mercy. On the first Easter Sunday evening, Jesus comes in the midst of His disciples, whom he finds frightened and ashamed behind a locked door.
