Preach Boldly, Connect Deeply

SPREAD HOPE, especially among young people who may only be discovering their faith

People in the pews report that the homily is extremely or very important and that it matters to their Catholic faith. We are raising funds to help grow our Institute for Homiletics so we can support more preachers to preach boldly and connect deeply with listeners. The opportunity is great, for this generation and coming generations.

Preach Boldly. Connect Deeply. 

We invite you to reflect upon a homilist who has impacted you that we can add to 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.

We aim to come alongside more preachers to help them find their way to make the Word come alive through meaningful homilies and other messaging they share. You are welcome to 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.
