Hi! This is Fr. Patrick Gonyeau, a priest in the Archdiocese of Detroit, and I'd love to share with you the Word of God. I was once an agnostic and dared God to show me He was real...and the rest is history. There is no greater gift that we can receive than Jesus Christ who brings us the joy of salvation! It is my hope and prayer that these homilies bring to you and those you share them with the joy of knowing and loving Jesus...who is calling all of us!

The Meeting Tent Revival 09/29/2024

The Meeting Tent Revival In Chapter 11 of the Book of Numbers, we read the story of Moses being told to gather 70 elders of the people and to bring them to The Meeting Tent, a spot where "the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face." (Ex 33:11) After being touched by God, the 70 elders begin to prophesy. We consider in this homily how we too have been touched by God as temples of the Holy Spirit and are empowered to listen to God and to prophesy. /episode/index/show/frpatrick/id/33250742

His Way 09/22/2024

His Way In Mark 9:33-37, we see a beautiful instance of Jesus taking time to correct the incorrect thinking of His apostles...giving them wisdom.
