Cost: Free

Ordained Catholic bishops, priests, and deacons are invited to submit a five-to-seven-minute homily (in English or Spanish) for one of three Marian solemnities: the Annunciation (March 25), the Assumption (August 15), and the Immaculate Conception (December 8). Monetary prizes will be awarded, and winning homilies will be collected into homiletic resources for preachers.

Winning homilies will draw on a homiletic methodology that brings together careful treatment of Scripture (including the lectionary and the various propers of the Mass of the day) with a spiritual exegesis that unveils the meaning of the Marian feast for the lives of the faithful today. Send submissions to [email protected] by March 25, 2025.
