For 15 June 2024, Saturday of week 10 in Ordinary Time, based on Matthew 5:33-37
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘You have heard that it was said to those of ancient times, “You shall not swear falsely, but carry out the vows you have made to the Lord.” But I say to you, Do not swear at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. Let your word be “Yes, Yes” or “No, No”; anything more than this comes from the evil one.

So grateful Fr. Kieran for your humble and deep expression of what Truth really means. I need to listen to your homily again and again to reflect on its’ depth so as to honor and praise God’s Beauty more deeply in my own life and behavior. God bless you abundantly in preaching the Good News to your Dominican Family.
Sincerely,
Brigid Cannon, OP
