We have the joy of welcoming Michael Sepidoza Campos PhD as our homilist this week. Michael is an extraordinary thinker with an expansive pastoral heart. He researches at the intersection of Filipino-American diaspora, postcolonial theory, queer theory, and critical pedagogy. Among his publications, MIchael authored, ‘Embracing the Stranger: Reflections on the Ambivalent Hospitality of LGBTIQ Catholics’ in More Than a Monologue: Sexual Diversity and the Catholic Church (Fordham University Press, 2014) and more. Michael recently joined the faculty of the Theology and Religious Education Department at De La Salle University Manila. If you would like to read about queer theory in advance of welcoming him, this article is particular helpful for the basics. I hope to see you tomorrow! — Trish
