Father Anthony reflects on Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a humble donkey, revealing how true kingship is crowned not with power, but with gentleness and peace. He shows how Jesus enters the city—and our lives—not to crush enemies, but to carry our burdens and fulfill God’s promises of mercy. The crowd’s palm branches and shouts of “Hosanna” become a living sign of every heart that dares to welcome Christ as Lord.

Fr. Andy reads from Luke 17:5-10, the Gospel reading for Sunday, October 5, 2025.

Father Anthony uses the story of Joseph forgiving his brothers to encourage us to ask Jesus to heal our wounds so that we may also forgive those who have sinned against us.
