Fr. John continues the message series reflecting on the invitation Christ offers to us to the Kingdom of Heaven.  Are we willing to embrace the journey by putting on our Baptismal garment, our wedding garment--living as faithful disciples.

We are all invited to live in God's grace---will we take the time to accept it or are we totally distracted and consumed with our own lives that we reject the time of our life??  Listen for more!!

Fr. John reflects on the call for us to be co-pilots with Christ along the highway to haven like tenants in the vineyard of our gospel this weekend.  St. Francis of Assisi is a perfect example of someone who was a co-pilot---working with Jesus to bear fruits of the kingdom even still today.

We are tenants and stewards---not the owners.  This brings us responsbility and relief.  May we always offer a rich harvest to the Lord who gives us life!!

Will we change our ways when we encounter Christ's grace or will be caught up in our own expectations not willing to change for what is right?  Jesus calls us to embrace the grace of God's love and change our lives.

Fr. John continues this fall message series inviting us to seek the Lord while he may be found and place Him in the driver's seat of our lives.  God's way needs to be our way---faith helps us embrace and sustain that path despite the challenges in our lives.

God calls all of us to work in the vineyard.  This happens in different ways and different times.  We must always stay focused on our call and mission---and the graces given without looking at what others receive.  We should always celebrate God's abundant grace!!

Fr. John begins a new fall message series reflecting on the need to let Jesus be in the driver seat for our lives.  One of the key ways we surrender control and be a co-pilot with Christ is to embrace forgiveness, mercy and reconciliation.

How often are we supposed to forgive??  This is the question Peter asks Jesus.  The response---always.  The gospel this weekend is all about God's mercy towards us and our mercy towards others.  Can we be as generous as the Lord is?
