JUNE 2025

Guided by faith and dedication to impactful preaching, Catholic Preaching Institute fellow Father Thomas Whittingham (Saint Laurence Parish, Upper Darby) gathers with coaches each month to review his homilies, consider insightful critiques, and enhance his ability to inspire his parish community.

See who else is participating in this year’s Mentoring program — Preaching Fellows, Clergy Mentors, and Lay Advisors — by visiting this link.

And the survey says …

In February, CPI opened separate surveys to pastors and parishioners to understand the homiletic experience of both clergy and the Catholic faithful of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.  THANK YOU to all who participated in the surveys!

The responses have been collected, collated and interpreted – click here to read more on the Research Page.

Now we’re on to creating vibrant programs with what we’ve learned.   We encourage you to visit this site often for updated information about these programs – and how you can contribute your time and talents!

FROM THE BOOKSHELF (for June)

This month’s “Preacher Feature” celebrates the new liturgical memorial of Mary, the Mother of the Church. In 2018 Pope Francis added a feast day under this title for the Monday following the solemnity of Pentecost – considered the birthday of the Church.

November 10

Throughout this our inaugural year, we have celebrated each month the feast days of remarkable preachers who helped shape a fledgling Church, and who still influence how we celebrate our Catholic faith today.  You will find curated reads about each in our Bookshelf Archive.
As 2024 ebbs to its end, this Advent we remember the CHOIRS OF ANGELS, those celestial beings created by God for his kingdom.  Especially during this season, we remember those heavenly hosts – named and unnamed – whom God selected to break into human history to announce the coming of the Saviour!
The Angels of Christmas:  Hearing God’s Voice in Advent explores the four angelic visits to Zechariah, Mary, Joseph and the shepherds.  May we never forget these first “preachers” of the Good News.
A blessed and transformational Advent and Christmas to you and yours!
