Fr. Patrick’s FOP Homily 3. Fr. Patrick’s Holy Homework
This week’s Holy Homework is:
Spend a half-hour with Jesus this week and ask Him to show you where there are “stormy seas” in your life.
You may be surprised at what He shows you. Ask Jesus how He wants to bring peace to this area of your life and write down what He tells you. It’ll be a grace-filled strategy from Jesus.
4. Fr. Tyrone Robinson’s Homily from Peace and Justice Mass
Last Friday the Archdiocese of Detroit Office of Black Catholic Ministry sponsored The Mass of Peace and Justice here at Corpus Christi at 6:30pm. The celebrant was Fr. Tyrone Robinson. The Mass is part of an annual celebration of the abolishment of slavery of the people enslaved in the United States, a celebration known as the “Juneteenth” (June nineteenth).
