  • Saint George's Lesson on Cherishing Baptism and the Eucharist - Fr. Mattherw Tomeny | 4/23/26
    Apr 23 2026

    The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/042326.cfm

    Father Matthew Tomeny, MIC, reflects on St. George the Martyr, reminding us that as soldiers of Christ, we must cherish the gifts of Baptism and the Eucharist that sustain our spiritual life, and also fortify us against the principalities and powers of the world. Through the witness of St. George and the symbolism of his traditional icon, we learn that eternal life cannot be taken from us unless we push away God's grace through mortal sin. May we take advantage of the Sacrament of Penance to remain worthy recipients of Christ's Body and Blood, preparing ourselves and the broader Mystical Body of Christ to be a pure bride for His return.

  • The True Bread That Never Spoils - Fr. Chris Alar | 4/22/26
    Apr 22 2026

    The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/042226.cfm

    Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains that Jesus is the Bread of Life, the eternal Word from the Father who sustains our souls far beyond what’s possible given the temporary nature of earthly food. Manna from the Old Testament fed the Israelites for a day the Eucharist eaten in this life will sustain our souls in eternal life, transforming our stony hearts into His own through a merciful exchange of love. This profound gift calls us to lift our eyes from material needs to the spiritual reality of receiving Christ, who promises that whoever believes in Him will never hunger or thirst again.

  • Abiding Faith in the Bread of Life - Fr. Mark Baron | 4/21/26
    Apr 21 2026

    The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/042126.cfm

    Father Mark Baron, MIC, guides us through John chapter 6, revealing how Jesus identifies Himself as the true Bread of Life who satisfies our deepest hunger and thirst. This Eucharistic discourse calls us to continual belief — a faith perfected by charity and nurtured through the Sacraments of Baptism and the Eucharist. As St. Stephen witnessed unto death, our trust in God's words allows us to abide in Him, finding perfection in the Blessed Sacrament, where Jesus truly is present.
