News / By Jerry Browne

I came across a quote by Maya Angelou this week that got me thinking. Angelou wrote “We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.”  It struck me that it is easy to look at the beautiful butterfly and forget about the metamorphosis or …

When I was preparing my homily, I came across a Roman proverb that says “Money is like sea water; the more you drinks the thirstier you become.” Somehow, the proverb speaks to the danger of getting caught up in the pursuit of wealth.

Homily 17th Sunday Year C – Fr Jerry Browne
