Like the people Jesus interacts with in today's Gospel (John 5:31-47), we can have selective hearing, listening to messages that we are comfortable with and ignoring voices that challenge us. During this time it is especially important for us to check on our hearing.
Join Catholic priest Fr. Nick Meisl for weekly homilies rooted in the Sunday Mass readings. Each message invites you to encounter God’s love more deeply and to live the Gospel with faith and joy. Fr. Nick preaches from St. Peter’s Parish in New Westminster, where he serves as Pastor, and brings the insight of a biblical scholar and Professor at St. Mark’s and Corpus Christi Colleges at the University of British Columbia.
God is never letting go
Happy solemnity of the the Annunciation!
This great feast celebrates the beginning of the mystery of the Incarnation (Luke 1:26-38), when God became like us in all things but sin. This is a great source of hope because it shows us that God is always with us when we suffer and struggle. In the Incarnation, God has embraced us in our weakness and is never letting go.

Preserving life is greater
In today's Gospel (Jn 5:1-16) Jesus healed a man on the sabbath. In this time of pandemic, we are likewise called to adjust crucial practices of our faith to preserve life.
