Christmas at the Cathedral 2007

This Homily (13 minutes) was given by Deacon Charles Rohrbacher at the 8:30pm Mass. He talks about the Love of God given to all of us at Christmas. He uses a story of his visit to the San Quentin prison 30 years ago to tie it all together.

Readings: Isaiah 9:1-6; Psalm 96:1-3, 11-13; Titus 2:11-14; Luke 2:1-14.

This Homily (18 minutes) was given by Fr. Thomas Weise at the 9:30am Mass. God is Love and that one word was spoken so that all might live for ever with God. Jesus is the refulgence of God's glory, the very imprint of God's being. May our hearts grow larger and larger in order to contain more and more of God's love to share. Could the story of the Grinch who stole Christmas gives us so clue that Christmas is much more that stuff and feasting?

Readings: Isaiah 52:7-10; Psalm 98:1-6; Hebrews 1:1-6; John 1:1-18.
