This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.

Mass celebrating St Juan Diego - Friday - 12/9/2016 - St James - Tupelo Mississippi
On December 9, 1531, the first apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to Juan Diego as he was on his way to mass and passing by Tepeyac hill in Mexico. Many centuries later, Juan Diego was beatified and canonized by Pope Juan Paul II. We celebrate St Juan Diego with a mass at St James in Tupelo on Friday, 12/9/2016 at 12:10. We will offer the anointing of the sick at this mass. And our Happy Hearts Advent/Christmas luncheon will be celebrated afterwards. All are invited to join us!!!!
