I cannot describe how broken and angry I am, seeing this barbaric Russian attack on Ukraine. There are no words to describe my feelings! I truly believe that I am not alone with my emotions! We cannot physically fight this war for the people in Ukraine, but we MUST support them as much as we…
A few weeks ago, after we finished an interview with our candidates for confirmation, I asked them for some ideas for the title of my article in the bulletin. And of course, I promised that whoever wins the competition will be rewarded accordingly. They came up with such great ideas, but the winner must be…
Hope your week was blessed. Jesus’ teaching for this Sunday is not an easy one. But what part of His teaching is easy? On July 6, 2015, a man opened fire at an African American church in Charleston, North Carolina and shot nine people. On February 2,2016, Immaculee Ilibagiza was invited to the same church…

Welcome to the 3rdSunday of Ordinary Time. Today’s Gospel presents Jesus’ “inaugural address” in the synagogue of Nazareth and outlines his theology of total liberation, which marks a great moment in Jesus’ ministry. The Scripture readings for today focus our attention to the importance and liberating power of the Word of God as “sacramental,” making God present in our midst. The readings…
