Free Mustard Seeds
Hi! This is Fr. Patrick Gonyeau, a priest in the Archdiocese of Detroit, and I'd love to share with you the Word of God. I was once an agnostic and dared God to show me He was real...and the rest is history. There is no greater gift that we can receive than Jesus Christ who brings us the joy of salvation! It is my hope and prayer that these homilies bring to you and those you share them with the joy of knowing and loving Jesus...who is calling all of us!

The Visitation Miracle
Just a few days away from Christmas, we meditate on The Visitation between Blessed Mother Mary and St. Elizabeth. (Lk 1:39-45) In the miraculous revelations given to St. Elizabeth in this encounter with Mary and Jesus, we find prophetic encouragement for our final days of Advent prayer prior to entering into the mystery of the Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

A Novena of Glory

Finally, for the nine days leading up to Christmas, we're invited into A Novena of Glory asking Jesus to baptize us in the Holy Spirit as we encounter Emmanuel anew this Christmas...

The Affection of Christ Jesus
From Saul to Paul. From persecuting the Church to dying for it. St. Paul's magnificent conversion and transformation is highlighted by the deep mystical encounters he had with Christ...even to the point of writing explicitly of "the affection of Christ Jesus." (Phil 1:8) At the well of prayer on our Advent journey, we experience this affection that makes our hearts burn for life in Christ and with Christ Jesus...

Before the Sacrifice of Jesus
In the Letter to the Hebrews, we read that Jesus "appeared at the end of the ages to take away sin by His sacrifice."(Heb 9:26) How do we respond to heroic love that sacrifices? How does our response to the sacrifice of Jesus change our lives?

The Face of Jesus
In Mark 10, we read of the man who asked Jesus, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?" (Mk 10:17) In the exchange between the man and Jesus, Mark notes that Jesus, looking at him, loved him... We consider here the gaze of Jesus, the love found on His merciful face.

The Meeting Tent Revival
In Chapter 11 of the Book of Numbers, we read the story of Moses being told to gather 70 elders of the people and to bring them to The Meeting Tent , a spot where "the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face." (Ex 33:11) After being touched by God, the 70 elders begin to prophesy. We consider in this homily how we too have been touched by God as temples of the Holy Spirit and are empowered to listen to God and to prophesy.

His Way
In Mark 9:33-37, we see a beautiful instance of Jesus taking time to correct the incorrect thinking of His apostles...giving them wisdom. Through the gift of the Holy Spirit, the disciples of Jesus still have the opportunity to commune with Jesus and receive wisdom from Jesus, the gift of seeing things His way.

Staying Engaged with The Holy Spirit
Turning away from perfect love is fair description of the essence of St. Paul's famous and sobering words, "do not grieve the Holy Spirit with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption" (Eph 4:30) We consider some of the deceptions the enemy uses to get us to turn away from perfect love, the Holy Spirit within us, and two effective methods for staying engaged with the Holy Spirit.
