Friday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time | Optional Memorial of St. Josemaría Escrivá, Priest
⁣
The saint of ordinary life... He said of himself: "We have to be contemplative souls in the middle of the world, who strive to turn our work into prayer. Married people, single people, workers, intellectuals, farmers... right where they are can and should be good children of God."

Thursday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time | Matthew 7:24–29
⁣
The Sermon on the Mount began with the Beatitudes and ends here... with a choice between two foundations. Both builders hear Christ. Only one builds on him.

Saint John's Eve | June 24
⁣
Jesus himself described John in those exact terms: "He was a burning and a shining lamp."
⁣
On the eve of the feast of St. John the Baptist, bonfires are lit in honor of St. John. Tomorrow, the Church celebrates his birth.

Optional Memorial of Saints John Fisher and Thomas More | June 22
⁣
Pope John Paul II declared St. Thomas More the heavenly patron of statesmen and politicians in 2000. Today the Church celebrates his memorial and asks a question that remains entirely current: when conscience and power conflict, which one governs?

Happy Father's Day from the Diocese of La Crosse.
⁣
Today's readings are about courage in the face of fear. Jeremiah surrounded by enemies. The disciples warned of opposition. And the quiet assurance underneath it all: you are worth more than many sparrows.
⁣
On Father's Day, the Church sees the particular courage that fatherhood requires... the kind that doesn't always look dramatic. The courage to stay. To show up when it's hard. To provide when resources are thin. To speak truth to children who don't want to hear it. To model faith when doubt would be easier.
St. Joseph... the patron of fathers, of workers, of the universal Church appears in Scripture almost entirely in motion: traveling, protecting, obeying, providing. He asks no questions that are recorded. He simply acts, and trusts and stays.
⁣
Today's challenge from the Gospel: speak and live the truth even when it is difficult. Trust God instead of letting fear control your choices.
⁣
To every father in our parishes: we are grateful for you. 🙏

Today the Church observes the Optional Memorial of Saint Romuald, Abbot, founder of the Camaldolese Order and one of the great reformers of monastic life in the Middle Ages.
⁣
Born around 951 into a noble family in Ravenna, Italy, Romuald's early years were marked by privilege, but a tragic event became the catalyst for his conversion: his father, Sergius, killed a man in a duel.
⁣
Young Romuald, deeply disturbed, sought atonement by entering a monastery. He eventually had to leave that community to seek a stricter path and he then spent roughly thirty years walking the length and breadth of Italy, founding and reforming monasteries, acquiring a reputation as an ascetic and master of prayer.
⁣
In 1012 he finally settled in Tuscany and established what would become the Camaldolese Order.

🙏 "This is how you are to pray..."
⁣
Today's Gospel is the moment when Jesus teaches the Our Father.
⁣
We have prayed these words so many times that it can be easy to move through them without hearing them. St. Teresa of Ávila, observed that the Our Father contains the whole of contemplative prayer within it... that a soul could spend its entire life meditating on those words and never exhaust them.
⁣
The Catechism calls it "the summary of the whole gospel" (CCC 2761).
⁣
Seven petitions. A few dozen words. The entirety of the Faith.

📖 Thursday of the Eleventh Week in Ordinary Time | Matthew 6:7–15

06/17/2026

🔥 One of the most dramatic exits in all of Scripture...
⁣
In today's first reading, the prophet Elijah (the same man who called down fire on Mount Carmel, confronted kings, heard God not in wind or earthquake but in a still small voice) is taken up to heaven in a whirlwind of fire, in a chariot with fiery horses (2 Kings 2:11).
⁣
His successor Elisha watches it happen. And he tears his own garment in mourning... then picks up Elijah's fallen mantle.
Sirach, the Old Testament wisdom book, describes Elijah this way: "Like a fire there appeared the prophet Elijah, whose words were as a flaming furnace."
