Today, on the feast of St. Jerome, Fr. Matthew Tomeny reflects on the fiery saint who gave the Church one of its greatest treasures: the Latin Vulgate Bible. Known for his sharp temper, wit, and zeal, Jerome was like a lion—unyielding in passion, yet tamed by God to become a humble instrument of truth. His life reminds us that even our strongest impulses, when surrendered to Christ, can be directed toward holiness.

Surprisingly, Fr. Chris Alar has never done a Saturday Talk on the Ascension of Jesus into Heaven.

At one time or another, most people have said things that would not be considered 100% accurate. Some have told outright lies. So what does the Bible and the Church say if there is a time ever allowed to do this? What if it is only a white lie to protect someone or to not offend them? Is it ever justified? What is the danger of lying? Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains this very practical topic.
