10 Minutes with Jesus

Jesus contrasts the bread of life with the manna in the dessert. Praying about that Old Testament figure of the New Testament sacrament could help us to appreciate the Eucharist a bit more.

- You satisfy the hungry heart - Peace of soul - God’s plans for us

-We must obey God -Bring Him to the people -The World needs Jesus

Today's gospel (John 3:16-21) gives us what is perhaps the most known verse of all the gospels, those famous words of John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but might have eternal life.” Jesus then explains that salvation is linked to faith but faith is linked to sincerity, the willingness to be honest with ourselves and ope...

"The community of believers was of one heart and mind, and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had everything in common." This description of the Church speaks to us of our mutual belonging to Christ. We belong together in the Church as members of the Body of Christ. This belonging frees us from attachment to our belongings. Because we are one in Christ, our private po...

In the Easter liturgy, we are reminded of our baptism. How much do we treasure this fact that we have been born again “of water and the Spirit”?

The second Sunday of Easter is also known as Divine Mercy Sunday. On this day we hear about Jesus giving the Apostles the power to bind and loose sins, establishing the Sacrament of Confession. This is a tremendous gift of God’s mercy which we should receive with joy and peace.

St. Mark gives us a summary of the days from Easter morning to the moments before the Ascension. It ends with the "Great Commission", the call to evangelize. We were not there when this historically happened, but we have the Word of God and the faith life of saints of the ages. We can encounter Jesus in this Word and life and rejoice in what we have received. We cannot but pass on this treasure we...

Jn 21:1-14 Simon Peter and the other disciples go fishing and don’t catch anything. Simon remembers that first miraculous catch when Jesus called him. At the Easter Vigil this year, Pope Francis said: “Remember your Galilee. Remind yourself. Today, relive that memory. Return to that first encounter.”

Easter is a time to give thanks for the victory of Jesus and that victory permeates everything. When Jesus eats the grilled fish they believe in the resurrection, something ordinary and simple is the sign of the resurrection. Our ordinary deeds done for his glory help us to proclaim the resurrection

Jesus was the protagonist of his own passion and death. Of all people, he knows what happened. Still, he wants to hear from the lips of his disciples how they have lived it. They find peace, joy, and sense behind their sufferings and their Lord in the breaking of the bread and the scriptures.

St. Mary Magdalene loves Jesus with her whole being. She risks everything to follow him. May her example and her intercession help us to use all our effort to have Christ at the center of our life.

This meditation has been recorded by the priest, literally, on the way of Emmaus. Cleopas explains to us all that has happened with that mysterious Man Who joined them on their way, Who explained to them the Scriptures and Who broke the Bread revealing Himself as the Risen Lord.

Meditation written by the priest and interpreted by Mary Magdalene. On Holy Saturday there is no liturgy. There is no Gospel reading. There is silence. Silence with Mary. We pray today with St Mary Magdalene. She has been with Jesus all this last week and she still finds it difficult to understand why Jesus had to die. Listening to her prayer on that day we can join all the Marys that helped and s...

Today we keep Jesus close company, encouraged by his Mother’s fortitude

John is concerned about Judas Iscariot. He doesn't like how he's so distant. "Could it be possible that he will betray you, Jesus?"

The meditation focuses on Philip the apostle; how Christ called him; and how above all he learnt what Christ's 'glory' really meant. Christ gave glory to God through his apparent loss of glory in his suffering and death. Philip witnessed the announcement of Judas' treachery and Judas going out to betray Our Lord, and then Jesus exclaimed: "Now is the Son of Man glorified". Jesus is glorified and g...
