Homilies by Fr. Cory Sticha, priest of the Diocese of Great Falls-Billings, and pastor of St. Mary Parish in Malta, MT, St. Paul Mission in Hays, MT, and affiliated parishes

Familiarity need not breed contempt

Having the simple, humble faith that leads to salvation

Planting and nurturing the seed of faith

The greatest gift from God: The Eucharist

The Holy Spirit working in our lives and the life of the Church

Being good sheep following the Good Shepherd

Seeking the joy and zeal of the Lord to attract others to Him

Finding the balance between God's Justice and Mercy

Being perfected by glorifying Our Lord and following the will of the Father

Rejoicing in the salvation Our Lord promises us!

Zeal for the spiritual life and Our Lord's commandments and teachings

Allowing ourselves to be changed so we may see God's glory

Lent as a season of preparation and purification

Seeking the joy of God even in difficult times

Loving God to avoid the anxiety of the world

Need for urgency in the spiritual life

Hearing the call of Our Lord and asking what we're looking for

Following the example of the Holy Family's faith in our lives

The fulfillment of God's promise will come

Preparing the way of the Lord by repentance of our sins

Entering the season of waiting and watching

Serving Our Lord by Serving our Neighbors

Seeking humility to combat pride

The intercession of all the saints, both known and unknown

The two great commandments of Our Lord and proclamation of the Gospel

Hearing the invitation to the heavenly wedding feast, and preparing for it.

Nurturing the Fruits of the Spirit

Doing nothing out of selfishness and vainglory

Seeking God and letting Him catch you

Loving your neighbor by seeking their spiritual good

Embracing our Cross as Jesus did

Reaching out to the “wrong people” and persisting in prayer

Listening for the voice of God in the silence of the depths of our souls

Seeking the Kingdom of God, the Pearl of Great Price and Treasure in the Field

Prayer for understanding the Kingdom of God
