Catholic Preaching Institute

The Catholic Preaching Institute

Welcome! 

We’re thrilled you found us.  Improving the experience of homilies – from the pulpit and in the pew — is what drives us at The Catholic Preaching Institute.  But more than tweaking what’s already in place, we’re looking to launch a homiletic revival in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, and beyond.

Why?  Because we need to up our game in terms of how, what, and where we preach … and how, what and where we hear the Word of God.  As parishes have already done post-pandemic, now we want to help keep those church doors open with a renewed proclamation of the “Good News” for all.

This is a grassroots initiative, wholly dependent on the involvement of all members of the local Church as the Body of Christ and People of God.  That’s why we’re so happy you found us … and why we invite you to see below for how you can help right now!

Feel free to visit this website often to see what’s happening.  And if you have any ideas or genuine interest that will help, feel free to contact us at any time.

Fr. Tom Dailey, OSFS

Pentecost ~ May 19

This month, we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit broke through the walls of fear and uncertainty of the upper room to embolden the Apostles, the Church’s first preachers.  The fiery work of the Spirit continued down through the ages and is experienced today … in missionary churches and blogs with global reach alike. 

Saint Peter, Bishop Robert Barron, and every priest and deacon in between, are connected by the same divine gifts.  Come, Holy Spirit, come!
