Eighteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time
When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into boats and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus. And when they found him across the sea they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?” Jesus answered them and said, “Amen, amen, I say to you, you are looking for me not because…
Solemnity of Corpus Christi
On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?” He sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the city and a man will meet you, carrying a jar of water.

Get a Soul Tan at Adoration
If done in a healthy & moderated fashion, is there anything more relaxing than “catching some rays”? While we as a country like to fake (not bake) our tans, there are plenty of reasons why we love the sun.

Through Scripture, the Catechism, and one unforgettable wedding dress analogy, he shows why purgatory is actually good news.
