Archbishop Lori’s Homily: Fortnight for Freedom 2017 Opening Mass

Not unlike More and Fisher, we find ourselves in a new situation undreamt of only a short time ago. And while no one as yet has paid the ultimate price, we must not fail to recognize that, in many quarters, religious freedom no longer is understood as a fundamental human right taking precedence over others....

Archbishop Lori’s Homily: St. Josemaria Escriva

Through the Spirit, we share in the unique Son-ship of Christ and for that reason we claim God as our Father and as members of his family, the Church, we experience his goodness and mercy –the fullness of life and love for which our human spirit longs.

The Risen Lord is sending us on mission, a mission of evangelization. Even if we don’t feel quite prepared for it, not quite properly formed, doubtful about our chances of success, hesitant to engage others about the faith, the Lord is telling us, as he told the Apostles, “You will be my witnesses . ....

Archbishop Lori’s Homily: Transitional Diaconate Ordination

As deacons, and later, God willing, as priests, I urge to build on what you’ve been given. Ensure that every day includes Holy Mass, the Breviary, a Holy Hour, and the Rosary. Punctuate your day with prayer, with meditation, and with praise.

Archbishop Lori’s Homily: 40th Anniversary of Priesthood

I think I can also safely say that a happy priesthood is like a happy marriage. There are ups and downs but mostly there is happiness in living this vocation.
