Sunday's Homily Excerpt -

Whether it is to God, or to those around us, saying 'thank you' is important. In letting those around us know how thankful we are for them, for what they do for us, we are also showing gratitude to God. Because it is God that puts people in our lives and it is God that gives us blessings in ways we may not always realize. In humbling ourselves before others, we are an example for our children and those around us. In showing gratitude, we are also expressing love. Love of God and love of neighbor. The love Christ has for us.” - Subdn. Tim Mellor, January 18, 2026-
