Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church: Catholic Sunday Homilies

We Are Sent to Show Others the Mercy God Has Shown Us (Jn 20:19-31)

We gather for mass on the first day of the resurrection, the next Sunday and every Sunday to encounter the risen Lord truly present breathing His resurrected life into us. And as the father sent Jesus to us while we were still unworthy we are called to go and show God's mercy to other others, even those we might think our unworthy. 

Domingo II Pascua, Divina Misericordia (Jn 20:19-31)

Homilia del padre Carlos. 

Journey from Unbelief to Open to Belief to Encounter (Jn 20:1-18)

Like the early disciples we come to the evidence of the empty tomb and travel from unbelief, to openness to the possibility that Jesus has risen, to belief that He is Risen, and then finally to a life-changing encounter in love.

The Best is Yet to Come! (Jn 8:1-11)

God is doing something new, and does not condemn us but wants to re-create us. The woman caught in adultery shows what God has done for all of us. 

Domingo V de Cuaresama (Jn 8:1-11)

Homilia del padre Carlos. 

We Are to be Ambassadors of Reconciliation to Our Divided World (Lk 15:1-32)

We live in a divided world. Are we going to approach it more like Jesus, or more like the Scribes and Pharisees in the Gospel parable today about the two brothers of The Loving Father. 

Domingo IV Cuaresma (Lk 15:1-32)

Homilia del padre Carlos. 

Salvation is God's Work Not Ours (Lk 13:1-9)

As in Jesus's day today some people still believe God punishes sinners with illness suffering and death. These are rather the consequences of our sin, that God does allow. However God does not desire that we die in our sin, rather he sends his son to save us from the consequences of sin which is death.  Death becomes a servant of God that reminds us all of our need to repent and accept the salvation one for us by Jesus not our good works. 

Domingo III de Cuaresma (Lk 13:1-9)
