News from the Diocese of Duluth

Father Michael Schmitz: How do I get better at being generous

02/14/20 12:04 pm

I find myself being less-than-generous quite often. I want to have a better attitude, but people keep wanting things from me: they want my time, my help, and my financial support. How do I get better at being generous?

Father Michael Schmitz

Father Richard Kunst: When the church seems to be 'always' talking about money

02/14/20 12:01 pm

In the years that I have been a priest, the vast majority of my parishioners have known that my least favorite subject to talk about is money. But I have had some of the parishes that actually think it is my very favorite subject to preach about! This is because some parishes as a whole do better than others in their charity and support of the church.

Father Nick Nelson: Where's that in the Bible?

02/14/20 11:46 am

Very often people will chide Catholics about a particular belief, saying, “Where is that in the Bible?” Or even well-intentioned Catholics sometimes will ask me to show them where this or that teaching is in the Bible.
