People in the pews report that the homily is extremely or very important and that it matters to their Catholic faith life.

From now until Dec. 31, 2025, we are raising funds to help grow our Institute for Homiletics. The opportunity is great, and we ask for your help in two ways to help us spread hope through this year-end campaign.

Preach Boldly. Connect Deeply. 

Name a homilist who has impacted you with a donation and a place on our Preaching Wall of Honor.
Think about a preacher who has touched your life. It could be a bishop, priest, or deacon, or a lay person who spoke at a retreat or event, or on a podcast.

In honor of that person, whether living or deceased, please give a meaningful amount so that we can help more preachers make the Word come alive through meaningful homilies that keep people coming back to Mass. Also, share information about the preacher who inspired you here. We will notify them or their organization and add their name to our Preacher’s Wall of Honor at the Institute for Homiletics.

We aim to raise $200,000 by year-end.

We appreciate your gift to renew our preachers and to renew Catholic preaching.
Thank you for your generosity!
