Deacon Mike Rapp's Homily

As we enter into Holy Week Deacon Mike Rapp gave us a great homily challenging us to take a risk and give ourselves entirely to God. Will we accept that challenge this week as we go through his Pascal Mystery. "Jesus doesn't want all that much, he just wants more."

Deacon Mike Rapp is in his final year at the seminary and will be ordained a Priest on May 15th

May God Bless you during this Holy Week, and I pray you are able to go to the foot of His Cross as Mary and John did.

Palm Sunday Vigil Praise

Begin your Palm Sunday giving praise to the Lord at Vigil Praise this Saturday March 27th @7pm.

Vigil Praise is at Christ the King Chapel at St. John Vianney Theological Seminary.

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he,
humble and riding on an ass, on a colt the foal of an ass.
I will cut off the chariot from E'phraim
and the war horse from Jerusalem;
and the battle bow shall be cut off,
and he shall command peace to the nations;
his dominion shall be from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth.

-Zechariah 9:9-10
