Cathedral Of Our Lady Of Guadalupe Sunday Homilies

Jesus admonishes to build the house of our lives on the solid foundation of his teaching.

Believing in God's love for me is essential if I am to put my trust in God and put God first in my life.

Our love, our compassion and our mercy must reflect the love, compassion of our heavenly Father

Central to the Beatitudes is humility. We acknowledge that all is gift from God and we are aware of God's overwhelming mercy

Like Peter, Andrew, James and John, we are to place our relationship with Jesus before everything else in our lives.

Holiness is the presence of Christ Jesus within us. It is manifested by mercy, compassion, and the struggle for justice. When Christ shines through us we bring his light to the world.

Our baptism sends us on a mission to be witnesses to Christ -- witnesses by the quality of our lives

The Epiphany is, in a sense, an on going feast. By the quality of our lives, Christians of every time are called to make Christ known.

Marital love within the context of a permanent, total marriage commitment is holy. It. Is sacred.

We must resist temptations to discount the scriptures as pious myths. From earliest times, Christians have believed the Christmas story that this child born of Mary is truly Son of God and Son of Mary. Because he is both God and man, he can reconcile us to God and save us from our sins.

True hope is in regard to realities that are eternal. Mary was a messenger of that hope at Tepeyac. She continues to bring us to her Son, the source of all hope.

Our faith promises us a universal kingdom of harmony and peace. We live in expectant hope

Advent serves as a reminder not to get absorbed in the things that do not last but to focus our lives on the things that last forever

Jesus had no doubts about life after our bodily death. He invites us to live longing for the life of heaven.

If we wish to share His glory, we must love as he loved

Jesus wish to come dwell in "the house", the soul of each person. We must open our hearts to him.

Persistent prayer is an expression of deep faith in God's saving love.

Like Namaan or the lepers in the Gospel, we have been touched by sin. However we have cleansed by the grace that has come to us through Christ Jesus

We are challenged to faith in those moments when God seems silent.

We are called to use the gifts God gives not just for ourselves but for the good of others.
