2nd Sunday Lent B 8 March 2009

Click here to download and listen to this homily (22 minutes) by Fr. Thomas Weise on the care of creation.  I was asked, "You don't believe in climate change do you?"  I answered, "No, I believe in Jesus; I am experiencing Climate change."  Yes climate change is happening at an even faster rate than the most conservative scientist expected.  Our response to this economic crisis must be care of creation and the common good.  Jesus was transfigured and the apostles could see in a new way.  Lets us prayer that our eyes are opened as well to the needs of the poor and the care of our planet.
