Fr Mitch, Sunday Oct 20, BIG YES vs. little yes Oct 23, 2019

Everyone has to make a BIG YES to something in their life... and that BIG YES will lead to a life time of little yesses. These little yesses are what brings life to our stories and allows us to face the various battles that we go through in life! To help us with those little yesses, we need friends and loved ones to help us hold our arms out, like Moses, in todays First Reading! We can't fight our battles alone... Who is on your left and your right helping you to hold up your arms in your daily battles?

Fr Mitch, Sunday Sept 8, HATE Sep 09, 2019

What does Jesus mean when He says that if we want to be His disciples, then we have to HATE our father and mother and brother and sister and children and wife? This is very confusing.... I thought we had to honor our parent? And by the way, it's His Momma's birthday today.... why should we honor Mary?

Fr Mitch, Sunday Aug 18, Get LIT Aug 21, 2019

Fr Mitch, Esix, Freedom and Brotherhood Jul 04, 2019

Happy Independence Day! In todays society we have a backwards view of "Freedom!" But today's Gospel speaks to us about true freedom... a freedom which goes beyond pleasure or doing what we must must do... True freedom is the moral right to do what we ought to do!
