If you missed this Sunday's homily or are needing to hear it again, this page is for you - Follow our new SoundCloud account at St. John Paul II Catholic Newman Center! We will post the Sunday Homilies, given by Fr. Lucas, weekly!
During our Family Weekend here on campus we got to reflect on the gift and beauty of family life. Our Heavenly Father teaches us so much about Himself through the family. Listen to this week’s homily about how the journey of the family can lead us closer to the heart of God.
In the gospel this weekend the Lord reveals to us that within the life of communion we are called to be responsible for each other. The path of conversion and transformation within our own lives is a responsibility that helps us fulfill the law of love. But St. Paul also reminds us that the law of love is fulfilled when out of love for each other we desire to enter into the lives of our brothers and sisters so as to bring them to the lord Jesus. May we continue to grow in the gift of responsibility.
“To think like God” In the Gospel today, Jesus challenges Peter to learn how to think like God. Through the way of the cross we see how God can bring incredible new life through the way of suffering. May we be transformed by the renewal of our mind and live out our vocation to proclaim the life of Christ to all.
"Who do you say that I am?" The Lord desires us to know who He truly is so that we may confidently stand on the rock of St. Peter's faith.
