Greetings. Welcome to my Blog.
My name is Father Michael Basque. I am a Priest of the Diocese of St.
Catharines, Ontario.
For some time now, people have been asking me to publish
my sermons in some format because they find them helpful. In response, I have
decided to set up this blog which will include some scripture reflections and
videos on various topics. My purpose is to stimulate people to think about
their faith and how it relates to daily life. I do not claim to be some great
intellectual thinker or spiritual writer. Whether you agree or disagree with my
ideas I respect your opinion. Some of the material I will put on my blog will
be from the past (I date all my work) while some of it will be current. I will
do my best to post something every week (maybe more often) but I am Pastor of a
large parish and writing (to do it properly) takes time. I ask you to be
patient.
I might occasionally
stretch the boundaries of conventional thinking about the Catholic faith but I
think the Church is at its best when that happens. I am not afraid to admit
that I may be wrong about an opinion but I do think carefully before I express
it. I am someone who is trying to be a faithful Catholic and credible witness
to the faith but an imperfect one.
I hope you find what I write to be helpful.
Fr. Michael Basque
