Reminder for the 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, November 16, 2025

Malachi 3:  But for you who fear my name, there will arise the sun of justice with its healing rays.
2 Thessalonians 3:  Rather, we wanted to present ourselves as a model for you, so that you might imitate us.
Luke 21:  Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand, for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute.

 


To live is to venture beyond our fears to taste the sweetness of the unknown.

  • 4thd Sunday of Advent, December 21, 2025

    Isaiah 7:  Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign: the virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall name him Emmanuel.
    Romans 1: Through him we have received the grace of apostleship, to bring about the obedience of faith, for the sake of his name, among all the Gentiles, among whom are you also, who are called to belong to Jesus Christ;
    Matthew 11:  Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel, which means “God is with us.”

     


    No, life is not predictable, but it is livable if we only concentrate on what we have more than on what we want. “Life is a shipwreck,” Voltaire wrote, “but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats.”
