Friday June 6, Rev. Br. Corwin Low’s First Homily

Br. Corwin’s First Homily as a Deacon at St. Dominc’s Benicia



June 1, 2014 Ascension of the Lord

Fr Jerome’s homily on June 1st, Ascension of the Lord. Mission, Mystery, and Monsters. These three concepts that make up the best Hollywood blockbusters can also help us to understand our spiritual journey. The disciples are sent to baptize everyone, their mission. After his Ascension they had to delve deeper into Jesus’ lessons and what they witnessed, and contemplate the mysteries. Finally, the monsters or in our case, the devil and temptation to sin, we have to battle these challenges to keep our selves close to God to our true spiritual union with Christ.

May 18, 2014 Fifth Sunday of Easter, First Holy Communion
