Reflection of the Week
Holy is not the one who never sins, but the one who repents and reconciles, changes and with the strength of God does not do it again. Holiness does not consist in never making mistakes or sinning . “Holiness grows with the capacity for conversion, repentance, availability to start over, and above all with the capacity for reconciliation and forgiveness.”
Have a blessed week full of forgiveness, reconciliation that leads to Peace!
Fr Rafael Pereira

Sermon from 9/5
I found this meme on Facebook and thought it fit today’s lessons. “We are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some have yachts, some have canoes and some are drowning. Just be kind and help whoever you can.” I think, though, that there is more than one single storm that we all find ourselves in but we all share in the same storms but have different boats for each storm. Sometimes we get hyperfocused on the big storms in the world, climate change, racial injustice, global terrorism and political divisions to name a few,
