Two Homilies - Blessing of the Palms and The Passion

Homilies are now available to download and listen to!

As part of our answering the challenge of the Holy Father to go out and evangelize utilizing new technologies, we're now offering the homily each week for download. Clicking the link to the homily should download it and automatically start it playing in whatever music player your computer is set up with.

On the technical side, the file sizes are about 5 megs which means it may a minute or two to download on slower Internet connections. It is also an MP3 formatted file which means that these are essentially podcasts. Don't worry if all the technical words don't mean much to you. It means we're using the latest in technology in order to make sure our church parish can reach the most people.

This week, we have TWO homilies. The current homilies are available on links on the front page of the website next to the link for the current week's bulletin. On the page with the prior bulletins, the corresponding homilies will be sitting side by side with its bulletin. We started on the anniversary of the start of the Catholic Church, Pentecost Sunday. This week, Homily for the Blessing of the Palms and the Homily for the Passion, are our fifty fourth and fifty fifth podcasts to be posted. This week, the homilies are given by Monsignor J. Robert Romero.
