On March 23 and 30, Father Ray presented his essay on the Passion of the Christ, taken from the Gospels of Matthew and John. Although you may have not been able to attend, Father Ray has placed the entire essay here on the parish webpage. This essay makes for an excellent reflection as Holy Week approaches. Differentiating between the two Gospels, Fr Ray's scholarly writing will give you a Biblical view of the Passion that you may have not encountered before. Click here.
