“We Shall Overcome!”

May 17, 2026: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Happy Easter! I shared a meme on my Facebook page this past Thursday. It was the Feast of the Ascension, and it depicted the scene we heard about this morning from the Acts of the Apostles. Jesus is heading up to heaven like he has those rocket packs we were all promised as a kid – and below are the apostles looking up at him. Anyway, the meme said – keep scrolling, Jesus needs to ascend. Which, if you do, Jesus just keeps moving up, up, and away on your screen. You gotta love the ingenuity of whoever thought that one up. I personally would have added sound – you know, Rocket Man by Elton John or something like that. At any rate, I love the part of the Ascension narrative when the two messengers –…

May 10, 2026: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Happy Mother’s Day, and many good wishes to those celebrating. It is a joyous occasion for most – offering a time to appreciate the love of their moms with maybe flowers, a visit or a call, or some other way to thank them. For others, this is also a difficult day, or one that brings about mixed feelings at least. For they are those whose mother’s have died, or those whose mothers are absent – in whatever way that may mean – or those mothers who have lost a child, or those women who could not have one. For these people Mother’s Day can be troubling, awkward, or even painful. And if that is you, know that we, your parish family, are holding you in prayer. And so, as I say each year, that is that…

April 19, 2024: May God’s words be spoken, may God’s words be heard. Amen. Happy Easter everyone! Yes – it’s still Easter. In fact, while we celebrate Eastertide for 50 days, in reality we are always a resurrection people. Now, the New York Times had a headline this week about the Vice President that read “Vance Says The Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology.” Does anyone else feel like the real news these days sounds more like something the parody news outlet, The Onion, would put out? Seriously though, the Vice President said about the Pope, I kid you not: “If you’re going to opine on matters of theology, you’ve got to be careful, you’ve got to be sure it’s anchored in the truth and that’s one of the things that I try to do and that’s certainly something I would expect from the clergy…” Says the…
