Homilies

Self Knowledge

Learn to let the Shepherd fill you and restore you because we have a mission. We need to bring the Gospel to people no matter what.

Can You Testify?!

We need to be ready to testify. Reflect and ask yourself, “Am I willing and ready to acknowledge Jesus before others?” We need to do this. We want to have a church with people who will testify!
