Homily – Good Shepherd Sunday (Fr. Gribowich)
Good morning again.
Can you hear me okay with this microphone like this? Okay, great. It’s great to be here., back at Saint Charles. I was in town this weekend for a wedding out in Pennsylvania.
And when I go to Pennsylvania, I usually stop at a farm.
It’s known as a Catholic worker farm, and it’s something that I’m personally involved in.
And the whole mission behind a Catholic Worker farm is in principle to try to cultivate a return to the land so that we know where our food and where our nourishment comes from and to have that interaction with the city.

Good Shepherd Sunday – We Are His Body
The Good Shepherd,
Stained Glass Window at St. Charles Borromeo
I am the good shepherd, says the Lord;
I know my sheep, and mine know me.
(John 10:14)
Fr. Smith’s Commentary on Church Fathers and the Eucharist
Fourth Sunday of Easter
St. Justin the Martyr
April 30, 2023
This week we will look at St. Justin Martyr (100 to c.165 AD). He was a philosopher and the first Christian writer to engage educated pagans with their own thoughts and language. He had some interesting insights but most of them were better expressed by St. Augustine several centuries later and we will examine them in several weeks. He provides, however, in his “First Apology” a good description of the Eucharist in 2nd century Rome. There are more extensive quotations than usual this week, they mostly speak for themselves and reveal that what was present from the beginning still gives life to us now. All quotations are form the First Apology.
Corpus Christi Outdoor Mass
Together with our neighboring parish, we will have an outdoor Mass and Eucharistic Adoration on Corpus Christi Sunday, June 11. The Mass will start at 11:30 AM in Carroll Park in Carroll Gardens. There will be no morning Masses at St. Charles Borromeo that Sunday. We will still have a 7 PM Mass.
Volunteers Needed – The Mass and Eucharistic Adoration is a collaborative event and all the churches will be pitching in. Please sign up below to help before, during, or after the event.
