Jesus tells the parable of the talents, in which he teaches about the importance of using the gifts that God has given to us in service to the Kingdom of Heaven. This Gospel reminds us that Christian spirituality is not passive or inactive. Our life of prayer helps us to discern the gifts that have been given to us by God. This prayer and discernment ought to lead us to use our gifts in the service of God and our neighbor. God’s grace allows us to share in the work of serving the Kingdom of Heaven.Read More -
The Gospel parable of the wise and foolish virgins remind us to keep vigil for Jesus. It is easy to get distracted by the details of work, family life, and other responsibilities so that we forget the real purpose and mission of our lives. As we begin this week, take some time to reflect on how we can live out our vocation in life—readying ourselves for the LORD’S coming.Read More -

Today we hear Jesus tell the story of a king who invites everyone he can find to a feast for his son. Today and every Sunday everyone is invited here to a feast where we receive God’s Son. Many Sundays we take this invitation for granted or see it only as an obligation. Let this be an opportunity to be reminded that the Eucharist is a feast, that God’s son offers Himself for us each time, and that this is just a foretaste of the heavenly banquet to come.Read More -
Like the last few Sundays, the readings today speak of a vineyard. It is an excellent time of the year to contemplate a vineyard — vines heavy with grapes waiting to be harvested. However, when Jesus speaks in parables, each element stands for something else. The vineyard we are invited to contemplate today is not just a large field planted with vines, but our very home in the Lord. The fruit it produces is not just grapes or wine, but the kingdom of God made manifest in our world.Read More -
