Week of September 14, 2025 | | |
Join Teresa Tomeo on a spiritual journey in Italy! In this free video series, you’ll walk in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Clare of Assisi, and Bl. Carlo Acutis. Explore the places where they lived, prayed, and learned to surrender themselves to God. Most importantly we’ll be inspired by their examples to grow stronger in our Catholic faith as we, too, seek to become saints.
As you embark on this pilgrimage, reflect on God’s gifts revealed through the lives of the saints, the beauty of sacred art, and the splendor of magnificent churches and basilicas.

Monday Morning Class: 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Beginning September 22
Beholding Your King
Moderator: Karen Licari
| | |
We live in a self-centered culture that all too often leaves us feeling empty and dissatisfied. A fuller view of God and His glory is the perfect antidote, which you will experience in Beholding Your King.
We’ll study King David, select psalms, the temple, and many Old Testament prophets and see the ways in which they all point to the coming King of kings, Jesus Christ. This Bible study is the second part of a two-part series and is ideally completed after Beholding His Glory.
What we’ll discuss:
- Prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament and their effect on people past and present.
- Psalm 23, the most familiar of all the Psalms which has comforted people throughout the centuries.
- God’s steady purpose in both the Old and New Covenants and the promises He kept to all of us.
| | |
Monday Evening Class: 7:00 - 9:00 PM
Beginning Sept 15
Beholding His Glory
Moderator: Katie Lubera and Frankie Chamberlain
| | |
As we study the people and events of the Old Testament, we’ll encounter problems that only Christ will solve, needs that only He will satisfy, and promises that only He can deliver.
Beholding His Glory shows us how all Scripture points us to our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. We’ll learn to recognize and appreciate God’s plan for our own lives, His awe-inspiring majesty, and His desire for personal intimacy with each one of us.
- Learn how our Savior was first revealed in Genesis and how He is the answer to the issues of shame and fear.
- Understand important parallels between the lives of Moses and Jesus, and how they both led their people to freedom.
- Accompany Joseph of the Old Testament on his life journey. The God who proved faithful to Joseph will not disappoint us!

A Powerful Study
on the Life of Jesus Christ
by Marcellino D'Ambrosio, Jeff Cavins, and Edward Sri
The marvelous treasures of the Catholic Faith—the Eucharist, Mary, the saints, and the Creed—are all centered on a single figure: Jesus Christ. Jesus is more than a historical or theological figure. He is our Savior, our Redeemer, our Lord, and our God. While many of us already know a lot about him, how well can we say we really know him? Filmed on location in the Holy Land, Jesus: The Way, the Truth, and the Life is a new and fresh look at Jesus—who he is, what he is really like, what he taught, and what he did for our salvation. This encounter with Christ will inspire and empower you to center your entire life on him as you come to know and love him in an ever-deeper and more intimate way.

Christ, and Him Crucified
Friends, this year, the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross falls on a Sunday, so we have the great privilege of reflecting a bit more deeply on this marvelous and, frankly, disconcerting and odd feast. The Roman cross was a horrific, terrifying symbol of tyrannical power. And yet the first Christians emerge exalting the cross of Jesus. They don’t hide it or pretend he died some other way; on the contrary, Saint Paul says, “I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” How do we begin to explain this?

Grow+Go, content is designed to help you understand what it means to be an evangelizing disciple of Christ. Using the Sunday Scriptures as the basis for reflection, Grow+Go offers insight into how we can all more fully GROW as disciples and then GO evangelize, fulfilling Christ's Great Commission to "Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." (Matthew 28:19) The concept behind the weekly series is to make discipleship and evangelization simple, concrete, and relatable.

Driving Ms. Daisy: As most of you know, I’ve written many columns about driving Ms. Daisy, a.k.a., my mom. Usually, I’m chauffeuring her in her much-needed Grech RV van, which we affectionately call "Daisy Loo." But this story is about driving Ms. Daisy in my own car a few days ago. It brought plenty of laughs to my mom and our family!
The story began shortly before we left the condo to head out to St. Lawrence Parish in Utica for their annual Apple Fest a week ago this past Friday. This little adventure has been a family tradition every year on the weekend after Labor Day. It’s one of the last big parish festivals in Southeast Michigan. Even when my dad was still alive, it was an annual trek for a few of us. We’d always arrive early to grab some of their outstanding food, wander through the big food tent filled with auction items and other curiosities, and cap the evening off in the bingo hall. The highlight of the night was always the best and funniest bingo caller I’ve ever heard. Playing bingo is fun, but it’s even better when the caller is animated, witty, and has a joke for just about every number he calls. This year, we even tried to coax the earlier bingo caller into sharing some of his jokes, but she wasn’t about to steal his thunder.
So, my mom and I were getting ready to make the journey to St. Lawrence. The question of the day was whether she would wear her soft neck brace or the harder one for the ride. As many of you know, she had a double neck fusion just a month ago and was starting to wean herself off both braces. Her surgeon had given her the green light to use whichever brace she preferred, with the goal of gradually phasing them out over the next few weeks. Even though she felt safer in the hard brace, I convinced her to switch to the soft one; I promised to take it easy on the drive out to St. Lawrence. We had considered taking Daisy Loo, but since it was a short trip and parking the RV would be tricky, we decided my car was the better option. Reluctantly, she suited up in her soft neck brace, and we boarded the bus …. my car … and off we went.
Now, I don’t get nervous driving very often, but I was definitely on edge this time. Truth be told, I was hyper-aware of every move I made because I didn’t want to do anything that might hurt her neck or cause her any discomfort. This was her first major outing since the surgery and one of her first car rides with just the soft brace. So, I had every reason to be nervous.
We made it down the street, took our usual left turn, and waited to turn onto Hayes Road. When the traffic cleared, I wasn’t paying close attention and accidentally gunned it. UGH! I saw her bounce a bit in her seat, and she quickly reminded me that I had promised to take it easy since she was in the soft brace. We weren’t even two minutes into the ride, and I’d already messed up. From that point on, I was super cautious. I accelerated and braked as gently as possible, leaving a ton of space between us and the cars ahead. My blood pressure and pulse must have been through the roof. And we still had 25 minutes to go.
We eventually approached the intersection of 24 and Old Van Dyke. We had a green light, but there were cars coming from the opposite direction. The light turned yellow, and out of an abundance of caution, I decided to stay put. That’s when my mom piped up and said, “You know, Mike, you could have EASILY made that light.”
With a look of exasperation, I turned to my mom and said, “MOM, I JUST got in trouble for gunning it back at the condo, and now you want me to GUN it again? Fat chance! No way! I’m not getting in trouble AGAIN!”
The Consequences of Living a Busy, Hurried Life (Part 8): Last week, I wrote about the empty promises of busyness. As we know, our world tends to glorify absolute busyness, but my call was for us to reconsider the relentless pursuit of productivity that often leaves us empty and restless.
This week, I want to focus on the call we have to rest and to keep the Sabbath.
I understand, it’s hard to stop a speeding train, especially the speeding train of our relentless activity. At first, it can feel scary and nerve-wracking. We might even feel like we’re doing something wrong when we pause or slow down. But Scripture provides us with plenty of passages, from both the Old and New Testaments, to remind us of the importance of rest, keeping the Sabbath, and trusting the Lord to help set our priorities.
Let’s start with the Ten Commandments. They are commandments, my friends, not suggestions. The third commandment is this: “Remember the sabbath day - keep it holy. Six days you may labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God. You shall not do any work, either you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your work animal, or the resident alien within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them; but on the seventh day, he rested. That is why the Lord has blessed the sabbath day and made it holy (Exodus 20:8-11).”
As the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) recalls in no. 2172, God’s action serves as a model for human action: “If God ‘rested and was refreshed’ on the seventh day, man too ought to ‘rest’ and should let others, especially the poor, ‘be refreshed.’ The sabbath brings everyday work to a halt and provides a respite. It is a day of protest against the servitude of work and the worship of money.”
In CCC 2184, there is a beautiful line that should form the basis for our reflections on how we spend our Sundays: “Just as God ‘rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done,’ human life has a rhythm of work and rest. The institution of the Lord's Day helps everyone enjoy adequate rest and leisure to cultivate their familial, cultural, social, and religious lives.”
I want to emphasize that final line, namely, that we are encouraged to use our Sundays to cultivate our familial, cultural, social, and religious lives. It starts with worship and honoring our commitment to participate in the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist. From there, we should strive to get the adequate rest and leisure we need to nurture these other aspects of our lives. If we don’t take the time to carve out even a small portion of the day that the Lord has given us as a gift to accomplish these goals, it will never happen!
The question then for us to consider is this: How then do we and our family keep holy the Sabbath? What changes can we make to keep this sacred day holy?
Enjoy the week. Know of my prayers.
In Christ,

The current population of the world is about 8.2 billion – and counting. That’s a lot of people. We humans are scattered around our big ball of water and dirt that is about 8,000 miles in diameter. The earth spins about 1,000 miles per hour at the equator. And the whole earth circles the sun at about 67,000 miles per hour. The great magnitude of these few aspects of human existence is mind-boggling.
Astonishing realities of our world are demonstrated in littleness, too. The smallest universally recognized living organism is 0.00001 inch in size.
Then again, there are things called quarks which are fundamental material particles considered to have ‘zero’ size, because they are small enough to be considered abstract ‘points’ in space. What is utterly amazing about the visible and invisible things in our universe, both gigantic and miniscule, is that God has an intimate and thorough understanding and awareness of all of them at every moment. We human beings, on the other hand, struggle to grasp what a million of anything would look like – much less fathoming 8.2 billion people on earth.
Amid a world that demonstrates both overwhelming immensity and vanishing smallness, we humans can tend to feel insignificant. One person among 8,200,000,000 does not normally stand out much. Then again, even though we might be huge in comparison to an ant on the ground, our relationship with ants doesn’t matter much. What ultimately matters is how we relate to the other people on our planet and with God who created us all. Curiously, how we behave at any particular moment in our relationships is based on a simple question: “Who’s watching?”
Whether or not someone has eyes on us has a big bearing on how we will or will not act. When we are alone, we are far less inhibited. We will do things that would embarrass us quickly if we knew someone was nearby. These embarrassing things might not be bad, but just personal. Yet, there might also be a tendency, when we are by ourselves, to act in a way that is morally wrong. We might take something that belongs to someone else. We might surf harmful websites on the internet or malign someone on social media. We may throw litter out the car window or be wasteful. We might cheat on a test. We may abuse our own bodies. We might abandon our thoughts to unhealthy fantasies.
Yet, even when we are around other people, we can have enough anonymity to feel comfortable doing wrong things. In fact, we can use the massive crowds of people around us as cover for bad behavior. We can drive like maniacs and endanger other people. We can objectify others, or be prejudicial and uncharitable with just a glance. We could be a slouch at work and overload fellow workers by our neglect. We are most inclined to do such bad stuff when we are isolated in some way from others. We hide in the shadows and darkness. But what about God’s perspective on such poor performance?
From God’s standpoint, we are never alone, never isolated. If we believe God truly is who we Catholics say he is, he has his eyes on us all the time. We Catholics believe that God is omniscient and omnipresent. We believe that God knows everything there is to know and is constantly attentive to every created thing. Although we humans might be more inclined to accept God’s ability to know all things rather than to be everywhere at once, this is what the Catholic Church teaches us. The concept may even seem creepy to us. “There’s no place to hide!” Even in this age of no privacy, it is still unsettling to think of the eye of Big Brother on us all the time. Only, in this case, is it not Big Brother, but Abba Father. God sees all, but he cares lovingly about what he sees.
In contrast, it is safe to say that we don’t have the attentiveness of God. It is a rare person who is constantly aware of God’s attention to us. So, we get slack and weak. We feel free to dabble with sin when no one is watching. Except, he is watching. Why we fake ourselves into thinking God is not watching, so that we can be free to sin, is silly. We are only kidding ourselves. It doesn’t make logical sense to encourage our dark side by denying that God is always there for us. It is childish (and dangerous) to cover our eyes with our hands like a little kid and yell to everyone else, “You can’t see me!”
So, what’s the point here? Well, we would be far better off learning to live honestly.
Consistent, honest living is incredibly liberating but challenging to maintain. Approaching each day convinced that God in the trenches with us does not come readily. But if we work to develop an ease of friendship with the Lord, his ongoing presence will develop into constant comfort rather than a fearful guilt trip. Honest interaction with our Lord, who is there watching over us regardless of our wishes, is the most peaceful route in life to travel. The old adage, “Honesty is the best policy,” makes a lot of sense – especially when applied to our relationship with God. He already knows what our deal is anyway. It is just plain smart to cooperate with God’s desire to love us rather than try to hide among a planet-full of people so that we can “do our own thing.” Then, if we could manage to let honesty with God wash over into honest relationships with neighbors and family, we will be still happier. We will be more like the persons God created us to be. We won’t have to worry about constantly looking over our shoulders to keep from being caught living a lie.
In Christ,

Fr. Mike Schmitz Reviews ‘Triumph of the Heart’
You’ve probably heard of St. Maximilian Kolbe—the priest who gave his life for another man. But have you ever wondered what really happened inside that starvation bunker?
Fr. Mike Schmitz reviews the new film 'Triumph of the Heart' and shares why, though he rarely recommends movies, this one is a must-see.
| | 22) Words on the Word: September 14, 2025 - Search for Truth | | |
It’s pretty well understood that, when it comes to the technology titans of Silicon Valley, Christianity is not widely embraced.
Why that is, and why it has been that way for several decades, is a complex topic.
But it’s possible, just possible, that things may be changing.
A recent story in a UK-based publication reported that “existential questions arising from the race to develop ‘God-like’ artificial intelligence are driving a revival of interest in Christianity in Silicon Valley.”
Maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe not. It’s hard to say, since the motives of those doing the investigating may or may not have more to do with business interests than with a heartfelt search for spiritual truth.
Indeed, the article suggests as much.
That being said, perhaps this is one of those developments for which we should be thankful, stop worrying, and simply step aside and let God do his work. Because we know that God has wired us, all of us, to be hungry in our search for him. And that he uses whatever means and levers of everyday life he can in order to draw us to him.
So, if tech execs are, perhaps, dipping their toes into the waters of Christianity for some sort of economic advantage, maybe they’ll discover the real benefit of knowing Jesus, and find truth in the answers.
After all, as we hear in today’s second reading from St. Paul’s letter to the Philippians, all roads lead to Christ.
“Because of this, God greatly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,” St. Paul writes, “that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
