Access special prayers and resources that help Catholic lay persons, priests, deacons, and families connect (or reconnect) more deeply with Our Eucharistic Lord and open to the graces He wants to bestow.
Listen to Companions on the Journey, my weekly Catholic radio program, and hear other recordings that bring God’s superabundant Word into the ordinariness of life, wherever you are and no matter what you are facing at the present time.
Find homilies, articles, retreat talks, and other reflections aimed at helping every person take one step closer to Jesus Christ - and be prepared to receive His Sacred Body and Precious Blood.
"Jesus, You are the Word. You are God's Word to us. It's a word of love. It's a word of forgiveness. It's a word of hope. It's a word this world really needs and You have spoken it and You *are* it. We thank You for the opportunity to listen for Your word, to live Your word, to embrace the meaning it holds out to us. We thank You for the gift of Your Spirit guiding us, enlightening us, leading us. We thank You for the light you have brought into our lives, and we pray for You to lead us, Kindly Light, in this time." - A Prayer by Monsignor McHenry, March 2023

In a hurry?
Listen to the Scriptures and “wait for the Lord.”
Let us use the Lord’s gift of time to seek Him, connect with Him, and receive His look of love in the Blessed Sacrament.
