5th Sunday Lent Year B 29 March 2009

Click here to download and listen to this homily (15 minutes) given by Fr. Thomas Weise.  Two weeks ago Jesus tells us that we are Temples of the Holy Spirit and not even death can destroy us.  Last week Jesus tells us that just like Moses who lifted up a serpent on a staff so the Son of Man would be lifted up so that all who look upon him would be saved.  By looking at that which most wounds us we can be saved and set free.

Readings: Jeremiah 31:31-34; Psalm 51; Hebrews 5:7-9; John 12:20-33
