"As with everything else that relates back to God, we underestimate the unending mercy He wants to extend to each of us." ~Greg Wasinski, Unconditionally: Finding Jesus in the Eucharist
Weekly Prayer
Prayer for Homelessness
Have mercy, O Lord,
on those whom war, or oppression, or severe weather
have robbed of homes and friends,
and aid all those who try to help them.
We commend also into your care
those whose homes are broken by conflict
and lack of love; grant that where
the love of man has failed,
your divine compassion may heal. Amen.

You're not Alone...

PRAYER

It is impossible to start a faith journey without making a sincere effort to build a relationship with God in prayer. However, it's not about words memorized as a kid - it's honest, raw conversations.

Every great sport's figure, entertainment superstar, career executive, can only remain successful because of the team around them. Our faith life is not any different, We need strong people for the journey.
SCRIPTURE & SACRAMENTS
Experiencing God's Grace...
Faith is not someone spoon feeding us theology and sermons. We have to build our own personal relationship with Jesus by committing to grow closer to Him though the Bible & Sacramental grace.

God hasn’t gone anywhere.
He’s been right there—waiting.
👉 Today, stop running. Take one quiet minute and just talk to Him.

“Penance… Really?” with Fr. Jacob Bearer
What if penance isn’t about guilt or punishment, but about love, freedom, and healing?
Penance is not about shame — it’s about love.
Not about punishment — but participation.
Not about the past — but transformation.
In this episode of the Faith & Real Life Podcast, Greg Wasinski welcomes Fr. Jacob Bearer for an honest and pastoral conversation about penance — what it truly is and why it still matters today. Moving beyond the idea of penance as guilt or obligation, this discussion highlights the beauty of offering sacrifices outside of Confession through prayer, fasting, and intentional self-denial. Together, they reflect on how these practices unite us more closely to Christ, strengthen virtue, aid in the healing of souls, and draw us deeper into the life of the Church. A thoughtful and encouraging episode for anyone seeking a richer, more lived faith.
