Jesus tells us that we are meant to be the salt of the earth and a light for the world. For whom are we light? Who is light to us? Today, let us look at our relationships in this light.

Jesus declares that his sheep hear his voice. Through a touching story about a young boy struggling to herd sheep, Fr. Lynch illustrates how God calls each of us by name and invites us to listen to His voice.

Weaving together two profound themes: Mother’s Day and Good Shepherd Sunday. Reflecting on a touching encounter with a young shepherdess in Bolivia, Fr. Lynch draws a powerful parallel between the love of mothers and the care of the Good Shepherd for His flock.

Are you tempted to go back to old habits after Lent? Fr. Tom Lynch OP challenges that mindset in this A Word of Hope reflection.

Fr. Tom Lynch OP delves into the gripping story of Susanna from Daniel 13. Faced with lustful elders, she had to choose between secret sin and public disgrace (likely leading to death).

In the Our Father, Jesus challenges us that we must forgive others if we want God to forgive us.

The people were led into the desert for 40 years to learn to rely on God. Jesus was led into the desert for 40 days hear God's word. This Lent, let us walk day by day further into God's loving embrace.

In an extra video for today, we hear about the call of the Prophet Jeremiah. God knows Jeremiah better than he knows himself, and Jeremiah will discover his own strengths as he lives out this call. Let us find ourselves by following our call.

An extra video for today. When Jesus and his disciples were in a storm at sea, Jesus chastised them for their fear and then calmed the waters. Let us pray for faith like Jesus' and use what faith we have to overcome our fears.

After Jesus was baptised by John, Jesus went on to baptise others. When John was asked about it, he was happy that Jesus was doing this and becoming greater than he. All of the blessings God gives us should be nurtured, and multiplied, and then passed along to more people, until the whole world is blessed.

Jesus is the source of all truth. Do we ask for God's help in finding the truth?

On this Eve of the Solemnity of Our Lady of Guadalupe, we remember that in her day, as in the days of Paul the Apostle, and still in our own, the Church was filled with all kinds of people, good and bad, and all kinds of divisions. Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared dressed in native clothing, speaking the native tongue, cutting through divisions. We are meant to do the same.
