Superior Priest

Pray For Your Priests

28Mar24 (24Thursday). Institution of the Eucharist and Institution of the Priesthood. Priests are not perfect. They need your prayers. Don’t criticize but pray.

Life is drudgery

3Feb24 (24bO5). Preaching again to sailors and Marines in 29 Palms at SLTE. Job teaches us that bad things happen to good and bad, and good happens to the good and bad. We are not God. God acts as he pleases. God cares about more than our physical wellbeing; he desires our salvation. We are called to trust him always.

The Need for Celibacy in the Priesthood

28Jan24 (24bO4). Preaching to Sailors and Marines in 29 Palms at SLTE. Most superheroes are celibate and so are priests. The reason, the job is too important. Priests need to live with an undivided heart for the Lord. Religious brothers and sisters or Monks and Friars and Nuns are also called to celibacy and live with an undivided heart for the Lord. Military soldiers also live with a time of celibacy to fully give their life. God is still calling people to celibacy, if only we would listen.

Choose to Love in Freewill

23Jul23 (23aO16). Liturgy is messy and so is life. Life has good and bad. We wish that there was not bad and want God to rip it all up, but God wants to give us every chance to grow in love of free will.

Pray for Laborers

18Jun23 (23aO11). This is the first homily on Camp Pendleton Chapel. The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few. Pray so that there may be more laborers in the Kingdom. God is calling men and women to live in celibacy, with an undivided heart for the Lord.

Be a Light in the Midst of Darkness EFC Final Talk

16JUN23 (EFCfinal). This is the final talk given at a middle school summer camp of Extreme Faith Camp (EFC). What are seeking for happiness? Hopefully one has encountered God at EFC and can go home bringing the witness of faith. If we are faithful it will bring light to other people.

Gratitude in Diversity of the Holy Spirit

28May23 (23Pentecost). The Holy Spirit brings unity in diversity. Tower of Babel has unity in pride that leads to being divided. Pentecost has disunity present that brings unity in the midst of diversity. All people hear St. Peter’s preaching in their local language. God respects and loves the diversity of peoples and talents. We need to also be grateful and love the differences in people.

The Drawing of the Eucharist

23APR23 (23aE3). The story of the Road to Emmaus has the first Mass where they have the Liturgy of the Word and Liturgy of the Eucharist. God wants to draw us to faith and love. He has drawn me with the Eucharist to grow and love more. This is not done through the secret, right action, but always being with Jesus as he is always with God the Father and with us. Be at peace with Being with Jesus.

Sure and Certain Hope

02APR23 (23Easter). There are more details about the Resurrection then we may initially realize. The resurrection gives us founded hope for our faith. Jesus has risen from the dead and we can know that all that he told us and taught us is true. Let us come to the Eucharistic sacrifice with gratitude and reverence for the great gift here.

There is No Limit

09APR23 (23Friday). Jesus died for us. His love and passion has no bounds. Let us always look upon the cross and know that God has no limits for what he is willing to do to bring us back into relationship with him.
