March is Women’s History Month. Along with our three female saints observances, preaching and teaching might include quotes from great women (biblical or local) where appropriate.

Aren't the readings this week about the journey of faith?

An interesting contrast presents itself in our two big Bible stories this week.

I remember my friend Joachim whenever I hear the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well.

A while back, a young deacon came to our parish to help out on weekends. He loved coffee, the stronger the better.

Brothers and sisters, let us acknowledge our sins, and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries as we seek the living water and true food Jesus offers.

Love does not care if a brother or sister in need comes from one place or another. For love shatters the chains that keep us isolated and separate; in their place, it builds bridges.
