SpecialBishop Menhivar, an immigrant himself, delivers a keynote address on immigration and the church's prophetic voice, framing the discussion within the Lenten context of Christ's suffering and cry on the cross. He emphasizes the Church's social teaching on the inherent dignity of every person, the right to migrate and not to be forced to migrate, and the state's role in humane regulation, advocating for a culture of encounter and reconciliation over indifference and powerlessness. The homily calls for presence, concrete actions, and advocacy for migrants, seeing their cry as a path to redemption and a purification from societal indifference.

SacramentalThis is not a homily from a Mass, but rather a lengthy catechetical session for OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults) candidates. The speaker, likely a priest, discusses the complexities of Catholic morality, emphasizing that it is rooted in God's nature as perfect love and community, not mere legalistic rules. He argues that true morality requires constant communication with God, intellectual reflection, and a communal approach, rather than individualistic rule-following. The session also covers almsgiving, pro-life principles, and the importance of stories in moral formation, contrasting genuine charity with self-serving actions.

Daily MassThe homily reflects on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, emphasizing the consequences of neglecting the poor and suffering in this life.

St. Agnes · Concord, California · Mar 5, 2026
Daily MassThe homily emphasizes that caring for the poor is not an option but an obligation for Christians, drawing on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It highlights that the rich man's condemnation stemmed from his omission—his failure to see and respond to the needs of Lazarus—rather than any specific mean-spirited action. The speaker connects this to the Church's social teachings and the need to address the root causes of poverty, not just provide almsgiving.
