Homily Homework To grow in Radical Reliance on the Holy Spirit (1) Practice Daily surrender to the Holy Spirit by inviting God into all parts of my life and parish life each morning. Give God Permission. (2) Know my weakness – this helps me realize I need to fully rely on God. (3) Have an attitude of gratitude, worship, and trust, which will lead to joy, freedom, and peace. “What is one area of weakness and one area of strength I can choose to actively surrender to God today?” Tax Receipts Parishioners may pick up their tax receipts in the foyer starting February 6, 2026.
