“Jesus doesn’t condemn those who are weak and trying hard; but those who are strong and aren’t trying at all. For Jesus, sin is often a failure to bother to love.” – Fr. James Martin, SJ I think it is the Truth that I am antiracist. I have given it

“The Words of My Mouth” by Andrew L.

April 27, 2022

We are no longer [held by] distinctions deriving from the flesh – but are to bear within ourselves only the seal of God, by whom and for whom we were created. We are to be so formed and modeled by God that we are recognized as belonging to God’s one

Parish: ‘The Thought’ – September 9, 2024

I film this video on September 5. Yesterday, as I was holding my 2-year old grandniece in my arms, I heard news of the terrible Apalachee School shooting in Georgia by a 14-year-old who had access to an AR14 assault rifle, a semi-automatic weapon. We are still uncertain whether he
