Happy Easter! Today, we celebrate the Lord’s Resurrection. Not only has it been called the greatest miracle of Christ, it is also the foundation of the Christian faith. As St. Paul wrote in his letter to the Corinthians: “If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. ” (1Cor 15:14) But we believe that Jesus did rise from the dead and, in doing so, He defeated death itself so that whoever…
The Divine Mercy of Christ In the 1930’s, a Polish nun named Maria Faustina Kowalska wrote a diary which communicated to the world the great message of God’s mercy and revealed the way of Christian perfection based on trust in God and on an attitude of mercy toward one’s neighbors. On April 30, 2000, the day when Sr. Faustina was canonized a saint, Pope John Paul II proclaimed the 2nd Sunday of Easter as Divine Mercy Sunday. God’s mercy has…
The month of May is dedicated to Mary.

Why is May dedicated to Mary? It is probably because several feast days which honor the Blessed Virgin Mary occur in May; for example: Our Lady of China (the Saturday before…

Christians hope for the same things that most people hope for, but Christian hope is quite different because it has been confirmed and strengthened by faith in Jesus Christ; the Son of God who was born of a…
In addition to being the foster-father of Jesus and the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph was a carpenter. Through his work of manual labor, he provided for the Holy Family and had a role in the divine plan of salvation. St. Joseph is mentioned in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, and briefly in the Gospel of John. Probably by the time Jesus began His public life, St. Joseph had already died, although we don’t know exactly…
The candle of the First Sunday of Advent is called the Prophet’s Candle, which symbolizes HOPE. The prophet Isaiah foretold the birth of Christ the Lord: “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, a young woman shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” (Isaiah 7:14) This prophecy gave hope to a people who have been longing for a Messiah. For Christians, this prophecy has been fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who came into…
