Cathedral Of Our Lady Of Guadalupe Sunday Homilies

The King spoken of in the Book of Daniel is Jesus the Christ. He reigns through love and self-giving. He invites us to follow Him into the Kingdom and to welcome others into the Kingdom.

The Four Pillars, Hospitality, Prayer, Formation and Service are invitations to love; to love those who step into our lives, to love God, to love our Catholic faith and to love our neighbor through service.

Thank you to the parish community for what they have done for the poor served by Cross Catholic Outreach, and appeal for renewed help.

Jesus came to earth to lite a fire. We can rekindle that fire in our parish be focusing on four essential pillars of parish life. These four pillars are: Hospitality, Prayer, Formation and Service.

Like Bartimaeus, who followed Jesus on the way to Jerusalem, we are invited to follow Jesus and so come to the fullness of life:

Throughout the Gospels Jesus invites us follow Him through self-denial and sacrifice. We are motivated to do this when we come to know Jesus and to love Him.

The Church invites us to be in solidarity with the Church of the Diocese of Gallup, the poorest diocese in the United States. Through our generosity, Christ is made known to the people of that diocese.

Jesus gave us the Sacrament of His Body and Blood to transform us. For its power to work in our lives, we must receive it with devotion and with loving gratitude

We grumble and complain because we lack something. What we lack is deeper than our external needs. What we lack is deep in our souls. Jesus, the Bread of Life who we encounter in the Eucharist, can fill that emptiness if we only come to him and allow him to fill us.

The bread by which Jesus fed the multitude is simbolic of the spiritual nourishment that Jesus offers to us all

Charity is a relic from paradise and pity is a strange argument that we all descended from one man." Henry Voughan, Mystic of Wales

We can be tempted to think that our vocation is something we decide. In fact, God has already done that. Our task is to discover who He has made us to be

The Dignity of Men and Women: How the Culture
