Unpredictable
We woke up to a beautiful snowy day here. As annoying as the thought of snow is in March, the view was stunning. Everything looked so pristine. This time of year is unpredictable. Life is like that too. In today’s … Continue reading

Everything I Have
The Prodigal Son, a well-known story from Scripture, is today’s Gospel. I am sure you have heard the words dozens of times, have thought about which son you are before, and seen how merciful the father is. Homilies take all … Continue reading
