WHAT MORE DO WE SEE?

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a very challenging and difficult time for all of us.  Not being able to go to Mass, Confession or participate in parish life has been painful.  Maybe we thought it would be just for a short time, but as time passes we are getting more and more frustrated and long for the presence of Christ in our parishes.  We can stay distracted by the things we cannot do right now or look beyond the obvious and discover what more we can see.  This challenging time can also be an opportunity to discover new things about God and ourselves.  It can be a time to embrace a deeper sense of what it is to be disciple and messenger of hope in these difficult days.

WEEK #2 – “SKIP THE DISHES”

Deacon Dennis preaches this weekend, reminding us that even during this pandemic, when we cannot attend Mass and receive the Eucharist, we need to look deeper.  What happens to us when we look past the liturgical celebration so that we may be a Eucharistic people out in our world today—how does Jesus in the gift of the Eucharist change how we live our lives at home, at work and in the community?
