Click for More

In today’s homily, Fr. Tyler Mentzer, MIC reflects on the mission statement of Christ. Jesus inaugurates His public mission by proclaiming the words of the prophet Isaiah, revealing that He has been sent to bring the Good News, freedom, healing, and salvation. His words announce not only who He is, but also the mission He has come to fulfill.
Jesus then demonstrates the power and authority of His Word. He commands demons and they obey; He speaks and those suffering from sickness and disease are healed. The fruits of His words reveal that the Gospel is not merely a message to be heard; it carries divine power that liberates, heals, and transforms lives. Watch today’s homily and discover how Christ’s mission continues to speak with power and transform our lives today.

Tearing Down the Dividing Wall

Today, the Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Josaphat, a bishop and martyr who gave his life for the unity of the Church — a unity founded in Christ Himself, who “is our peace, He who made both one and broke down the dividing wall of enmity through His flesh” (Eph 2:14).

St. Teresa of Avila's Favorite Scripture

Fr. Tyler Mentzer invites us to enter the same thirst that filled the heart of St. Teresa of Jesus — a thirst that only Christ can satisfy. When Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well, He revealed Himself as the Bridegroom of souls, drawing her from earthly longing to the eternal spring of divine love. “Whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst” (John 4:14). This is not poetic language—it is the invitation of the living God to each of us.
