Saturday. August 17, 2013. 5:30p.m. English Mass.

Deacon of the Mass -- Reverend Mr. James Bader.

Homilist -- Father Machado. From Luke 12:49 - 53. Jesus tells us "Do you suppose that I come to give peace on earth?  I tell you not at all, but rather division..."

Father Machado explained: "Brothers and sisters! Jesus is not preaching His Jihad or Holy War like the Muslims versus the Crusaders or China versus India.

"Instead Jesus' Jihad is the way each and everyone of us must be at war with Satan every single day -- against the Seven Deadly Sins [here he lists and defines each one!]. 

"This Holy War takes place inside each and everyone of us -- all day long ... !"
