GOD, THE MASTER WEAVER
Rev. Lenny Tighe

The Master Weaver, a merciful God, threads our lives with both gold and black threads as in the Paschal Mystery of dying and rising. Every person we meet even for a few seconds is woven into our lives. Using the lives of 5 unique women and men as witnesses to self- giving, we can find divine threads that are often hidden from our sight.

THE SPIRITUALITY OF THE PARABLES
Rev. Lenny Tighe

Again the power of a story brings a message to each of us and to the community of the Church. After we put a parable into its Gospel context, how can we make it both personal and useful for the common good? A spiritual challenge for sure!
