Good Friday
This day we read John’s Passion narrative. While Jesus is the one captured, tried and crucified, it is the rest of the humans in the story who fall apart. Peter denies he even knows Jesus; the religious authorities, who should have known better, have handed Jesus over and call for his death; Pilate buckles under [...]

Holy Thursday: Let Jesus Wash Your Feet (Jn 13:15)
The story of the Last Supper between Jesus and his disciples is told very differently in John’s Gospel and in the other three Gospels. Whereas the other Gospels pay great attention to the Eucharistic words of Jesus “Take and eat, this is my body,… Take and drink, this is my blood,… Do this in memory [...]

For the fourth consecutive Sunday now, we read a gospel story about Jesus’ [...]

UK Home Office ordered to grant Indefinite Leave to Remain to Domestic Helper
There are two aspects to this case: First, the appeal tribunal held that, because her employer agreed to increase her wage to the new, higher level, her application should have been granted — and proceeded to make that order.

The Filipino Way: Courtship to Marriage
As they said, the Filipinos got the longest courtship amongst any other culture. To illustrate, it takes a guy to get the “Yes” after it has proven his love and sincerity to the lady. This simply shows how conservative the Filipinos are, having to act like a “Maria Clara” back in the old days has [...]
