Fr. Stuart Crevcoure's Homily, Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, 7/19/2026

Fr. Stuart's homily discusses the distinction between the weed and wheat within ourselves, and sometimes it is hard for us to differentiate between the two. There are good graces that God has sown within our souls, but there is also temptation and sin in us as well. In eliminating the weeds, this would effectively take away our free will and choice to love God freely. We must concentrate on the things that will yield a harvest for God thus doing God's will.

Fr. Vince Fernandez's Homily, Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, 7/19/2026

Fr. Vince Fernandez's homily explains the gospel and the parable of sorting the wheat from the weeds. Every person is fundamentally good being made in the image and likeness of God. In our fallen nature, we are susceptible to temptation from the devil. However, we do not lose our fundamental good nature. In this life, we have a patient God who gives us time to cultivate and nurture our soul, especially through confession. God gives us the grace to change us in a supernatural way in the sacraments.

Fr. Vince Fernandez explains in his homily that God's word always works so long as we trust in Him. When His grace is sent out, it is always effective. Fr. Vince encourages us to slow down and "trust the process" in our spiritual life. God doesn't wait until the soil of your interior life is perfect, and His word is powerful enough to do what man cannot do on his own.

Fr. Stuart Crevcoure talks about the gospel and the parable of the seeds sown in different soils. Each ground has a different environment where the seed either takes root and beard fruit or dries up and dies. Fr. Stuart Crevcoure also talks about how sometimes seeds are able to survive in unideal conditions much like the Christian faith in areas of persecution. He encourages us to be receptive to the word of God even when we feel like He can't do much with us. God always finds a way to make his purpose known.

Fr. Vince Fernandez's Homily, Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time, 7/5/2026

Fr. Vince Fernandez explains what happens when a nation overlooks God and assumes it can do anything without God. The dignity and survival of America hinges on whether it upholds the dignity of every human life as quoted by Pope St. John Paul II. Our founding fathers knew that each person was created equal with unalienable rights. Each person was created in the image and likeness of God.
