Sermon - April 27

In today's sermon, Fr. Rogers tells us that Doubting Thomas becomes Believing Thomas when he puts his fingers in the holes in Christ's body. Christ does not come back completely unharmed but rather goes forward marked with the signs of His self giving love.

Sermon - Easter Morning, April 20

On that first Easter morning, Fr. Jordan tells us, the women who arrived at the tomb received 3 sermons: one from the men in dazzling robes, one from the Stone that was rolled away and one from the Empty Tomb.

Sermon - Easter Vigil, April 19

Fr. Klukas gives the first sermon of Easter, during the Great Vigil of Easter.

Sermon - Good Friday, April 18

Fr. Klukas gives the Good Friday sermon.

Maundy Thursday Sermon - April 17

Fr. Klukas tells us that Jesus is with us on the mountaintops and in the valleys, but especially when His believers gather together in love for one another and love for Him and become one with Him.

Palm Sunday Sermon - April 13

Guest Preacher, Fr. Arnie Klukas, preaches our Palm Sunday sermon. We are pilgrims on the way to the cross so that we may participate in the resurrection. We in our sins, in our alienation from God, put Him to the cross.

Sermon - March 30

Fr. Jordan preaches today on the parable of the Prodigal Son. It is all about God's love for us even despite our sinfulness. We've all been that son, chasing after illusions of happiness, but God does not forget us.

Sermon - March 23

Today Fr. Jordan preaches on the first reading, when God calls Moses at the burning bush to lead His people out of Egypt. What we have here is a masterclass on the art of making excuses. Moses is convinced he is the wrong man for the job. This great man of God is really just like you and me.

Sermon - March 16

In today's sermon, Fr. Young tells us that God has been urging, nudging and pushing us toward goodness and life and salvation. We occasionally cooperate but frequently resist.

Sermon - March 9

On this first Sunday in Lent, we read the Gospel story of our Lord's temptation in the wilderness. Fr. Jordan tells us that this forms the basis for this season of Lent. In imitation of Christ, we are asked to fast and pray and focus on these disciplines as ways of growing in holiness.

Sermon - Ash Wednesday

"You are dust and to dust you shall return," we are told every Ash Wednesday. Fr. Jordan tells us that we are invited here today to hear this repeated to us. There is wisdom in knowing that time is not unlimited. Now is the time to start getting things right with God, with others and within ourselves.

Sermon - March 2

The Transfiguration is the very center of the Gospel, Fr. Rogers preaches today. It is the very heart of it, because it reveals not only who Jesus is but who we are called to become.

Sermon - Feb. 23

Everyone is an evangelist and a missionary, Fr. Jordan tells us today. Every day we have an opportunity to share the gifts and riches of our faith with others. St. Paul says others will not hear the Good News unless they have a preacher and that is all of us.

Sermon - Feb. 16

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the heart of the Christian gospel, Fr. Jordan tells us today. It is the truth on which everything else hangs. Christianity isn't a preference. Something happened: Jesus was dead and then He was alive.
