In this heartfelt homily, Fr. Luke reflects on the beauty and power of living in the light of Christ. Sharing stories from his time as a friar, a touching baptism, and a visit to the Holy Land, he reminds us that our lives are a gift meant to be lived with integrity, faith, and spiritual readiness. With warmth and humor, Fr. Luke invites us to keep the flame of faith burning brightly and to walk as children of the light, trusting in God’s mercy and truth.

Fr. Joshua Caswell speaks from the heart, encouraging us to stay close to God even when life gets hard. With stories of the Blessed Mother, St. Benedict, and the little shepherds of Fatima, he reminds us that we’re not here by accident. God has called us to be gentle, faithful, and strong, trusting in His love and peace.

Joseph’s story reminds us, as Fr. Luke reflects, that God can bring good even from our worst moments. Like Padre Pio looking up at his grandmother’s messy needlework, we often only see the tangled threads of life. But from God’s view, it’s a beautiful design. What feels confusing now will one day make perfect sense in the light of heaven.

Fr. Luke Mary reflects on the story of Joseph and how it reveals God’s plan through suffering. He reminds us that the greatest struggles often lead to the greatest graces—and that in our own trials, we are being prepared for something beautiful.

Jacob’s encounter with God shows the struggle and transformation that comes with growing in holiness. Fr. Luke reflects on how our journey toward God often involves deep inner battles. But when we allow His love to overcome us, we find true victory and peace.

On this quiet Monday, Fr. Luke Mary Fletcher, CFR reflects on the beautiful connection between Jacob’s dream in Genesis and Jesus’ words in the Gospel of John. Jacob saw a stairway to heaven—a powerful image later fulfilled in Christ Himself. No longer do we climb to God through our own efforts. In Jesus, God comes down to us. Through the Mass and the Eucharist, we are lifted, drawn into His presence, and united with Heaven. Every Catholic altar becomes the place where heaven touches earth.

On this “Eternal Gladness Sunday,” Father Luke leads us to reflect on the joy and hope of heaven. From the consoling love of God pictured through a mother’s embrace, to the profound words of Jesus—“Rejoice that your names are written in heaven”—we are reminded of what truly awaits us. With humor, heartfelt stories, and the powerful witness of Saint Maria Goretti, this homily invites us to dream beyond our limited view and anchor our hope in eternity.

In this First Saturday homily, Father Luke invites us into the deeper meaning of Marian devotion through the lens of Scripture, the teaching of Saint Louis de Montfort, and the beauty of reparation. With reflections on being “clothed in Christ” and the spiritual richness of Holy Communion, we are reminded that Mary doesn’t take us away from Jesus—she leads us to Him. A powerful meditation for anyone seeking to resemble Christ more and more each day.
