Fr. Cappy’s Corner

The hands, feet, and eye are metaphors to the functions of the soul.

There are many competing voices out there vying for our attention. We need to move away from the noise to be able to listen to God.

Our Lord accessed the Pharisees and Scribes of hypocrisy and substituting their elaborate rules for region, but in reality are far from God. God call us to an authentic Christian life. What kind of person do we really want to be?

Contentment and happiness comes when we can learn to trust and accept the role that God has given to us.

St. Louis was a great long because he ensured that his sense of Justice was borne from first prioritizing the justice of his soul before God.

St Bartholomew and apostles were all unqualified and uneducated to be given the mission to bring the gospels to the ends of the earth. We are in good company if we feel inadequate.

Believing in the Eucharist means acceptance of what it stands for.

The Feast of St. Lawrence reminds us the beautiful gift of the diaconate, whose invaluable service inspires us to truly seek the real treasures of the Church.

Some of the disciples of Jesus could not accept the truth that Jesus is the Bread of Life, because they refuse to hear and learn from Jesus. We too can sometimes fall into this trap of denying the truth.

As Jesus invited Peter to trust in Him to walk on water in the midst of the storm, Jesus invites us to trust and believe that we share in His Power when we are in the midst of the storms of our own life.

Jesus reminds us to not be caught up in the trivialities of this world. The only thing that matters is seeking Him — the food that lasts to eternal life!

Sometimes we often mistaken being prophetic and truthful as synonymous with being rude. Many Christians often fall into this trap and gives Christianity a bad name.

The treasure buried in the field are the many blessings that God sends our way each day. How attentive are we to God’s surprises?

The devil’s primary tactics is to divide and to accuse.

God often use the times when we are inconvenienced, attached, or misjudge as opportunities to grow in holiness.

A reflection on the Parable of the Mustard Seed

A strong faith and a strong begins with a robust love and desire to receive the Eucharist in a worthy manner.

On this Feast of Justin the Martyr, Father speaks about the importance of reason, but also of the conversion of the heart, in arriving at faith.

To be a a friend of God means to be a person of joy, a person who loves, and person who bears fruit.

The crisis in vocation in the Priesthood and in the Church will never be resolved unless courageous men and women answer God’s call.

Why did Jesus come to the world? Out of pure love, but also to restore justice and peace in our hearts and in our world.

Like Our Lord in today’s Gospel who helped the disciples recognize Him in the breaking of the bread, and like St. Jean Baptiste DeLaSalle who exhorted his brothers to remember their ultimate vocation, we are called to influence and help others get to Heaven.

Easter is about encountering Jesus as a living presence!

The end of Lent is the beginning of our new life in Christ

Fr. Caparas speaks about three characteristics in Judas — greed, jealousy, and pride — and how this contributed to his downfall and betrayal, and how this can also lead to our downfall and betrayal of Christ as well.
