Reflections/Homilies

I have come that they may have life

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Mon, 09 May 2022
Acts 11:1-18, Jn 10:1-10. The events that led to great transformation in Peter after Pentecost should give us the greatest hope for the possibility of change in our life. From such an impulsive, self-centred man who dared to persuade Christ away from His way of the Cross (Cf. Mt. 16:22), became totally transparent to the..

How can I repay the Lord for His goodness to me?

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Sat, 07 May 2022
Acts 9:31-42, Jn 6:60-69. Today's Psalms begins with the words: “How can I repay the Lord for his goodness to me?” This should be a question we must ask ourselves everyday. Yet, so many people do not ask that question. Instead, they often ask: “What has God done for me?” o..

The Conversion of Paul

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Fri, 06 May 2022
Acts 9:1-20, Jn 6:52-59. Today's first reading provides us with the account of Paul’s life-changing experience on the road to Damascus. To understand how radical this encounter was for Paul, we need to think about who Saul of Tarsus was. Saul was a Pharisee, a strict Jew who followed the precepts of the law to the gr..

Do you understand what you are reading

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Thu, 05 May 2022
Acts 8:26-40, Jn 6:44-51. God was already drawing the Ethiopian eunuch to Himself, before ever he met with Philip on the road from Jerusalem to Gaza. This wealthy Ethiopian civil servant was a God-fearing Gentile who worshiped God and followed whatever Torah rules he could, in his actual situation. Today's first reading ..

Whoever comes to me, I will not cast out

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Wed, 04 May 2022
Acts 8:1-8, Jn 6:35-40. After the death of Stephen, a storm of persecution broke out against the early Church in Jerusalem and increased in its fury. The prime agent in this campaign of persecution was Paul. As the floodgates of persecution opened against Christians, the focus shifted from Jerusalem to the other towns of..

The Feast of Saints Philip and James

By REV. FR. SAMUEL FREDERICK
Tue, 03 May 2022
1 Cor. 15:1-8, Jn 14:6-14. Today we celebrate the glorious Feast of Saints Philip and James, the two faithful servants of God who dedicated their lives in the service of God.
