Sacrosanctum concilium teaches: "By means of the homily the mysteries of the faith and the guiding principles of the Christian life are expounded from the sacred text during the course of the liturgical year. The homily, therefore, is to be highly esteemed as part of the liturgy itself" (no. 52).
We routinely post the text of homilies delivered during the Mass to this page. Our intention is to post these for every Mass, but this may not be possible if the priest cannot provide an electronic copy of his homily.
These are in .pdf format. They are sorted by date preached and are available for download by clicking on the date of the homily.
