One day, Jerry and I were fly fishing. Around noon, Jerry took the car to get some lunch. When he returned, two hours later, I asked him, “What took you so long”?  He said that the car wouldn’t start because the anti-theft device activated. The car thought Jerry was stealing the car. He then went into exacting detail how... The post Through the most trying times, the Good Shepard leads appeared first on St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine.

I will go to the temple and offer a turtle dove as a sacrifice to the Lord. The first thing I do when I get to the temple is to go to the moneychangers table.  I take out a pagan five-dollar bill and change it for two temple dollars. It is a lousy exchange rate, but...

Why are we any different from Abraham, the Father of Faith? God called him, but He first tested him. Every year, when I go on the family vacation, I bake a chocolate cake. After about twenty minutes, I open the oven to inspect the progress. Even though it looks done on the outside, I can...

It was buy-one-get-one-free Monday at Kohl’s department store. That means you pay the highest “gouging” price for an item and you get a second for free. My mother was sitting in her wheelchair holding a Froggy beanbag pillow. I explained to her that if we wait until half-price Wednesday, we could get the pillow for...

After Jesus cured the leper, He said to him, “Go show yourself to the priest and do not tell anyone.” What is the first thing he does? He blabs it to everyone. I can understand what happened. After the priest gave the leper a clean bill of health and told him he could now go... The post The Secret appeared first on St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine.

Months ago Pope Francis designated Sunday, Feb 4 as a prayer day for the victims of all those who suffered from abusive priests. Here is the reason why. First, revelations were made. The light shined in the darkness. Then there were law suits, settlements, and apologies. To ensure that the apologies were not just lip...

I was in my sixth-grade gym class. It was floor hockey, boys against the girls. The teacher pulled me aside to ask if I would play on the girls’ side to balance the teams. I reluctantly said, “Yah, I guess.”  Sure enough, the guys made lots of comments on how I was a nice girl. I... The post One way to never go wrong. appeared first on St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine.

Couldn’t Jesus do a little better? I am sure there were plenty of synagogue leaders and faithful religious priests to choose from. Why Peter? Remember Moses? Before God called Moses, he was tending his flock at Midian. He is a runaway slave with a rap sheet for murder. You cannot get lower than that. Wouldn’t...

The disciples ask Jesus, “Where are you staying?” Jesus invited them to come and see. They are about to discover that Jesus stays at the bosom of the Father because that is where He is from. We know this because the Gospel begins by telling us that Jesus comes from the bosom of the Father....
