Homilies by Fr. Kurian & Fr. Dan – 5-8-16

post-thumbnail

Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord. We heard the readings from Acts 1:1-11 and Hebrews 9:24-28, 10:19-23. The Gospel was proclaimed from Luke 24:46-53.

This weekend we heard two great homilies from Fr. Kurian and Fr. Dan.
