Homilies

Sunday and weekday homilies are posted here after they have been preached.

These are offered as a help for prayer and reflection, allowing you to return to the Gospel, to ponder it more deeply, and to carry it into daily life.

They may also be of help to those who are unable to be physically present at Mass, so that they can still hear the teaching of the Church and remain connected to the life of the parish.

These homilies are not a substitute for the celebration of the Mass, but a support for faith, reflection, and continued prayer.
