2007 Homilies
“If I proclaim the Gospel, this gives me no ground for boasting, for an obligation is laid on me, and woe to me if I do not proclaim the Gospel!” (1 Cor 9:16).
The Fathers of the Second Vatican Council taught:
“It is the first duty of priests as co-workers of the bishops to preach the Gospel of God to all men. In this way they carry out the Lord's command "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature" (Mk. 16:15) and thus set up and increase the People of God. … Priests then owe it to everybody to share with them the truth of the Gospel in which they rejoice in the Lord (Presbyterorum Ordinis, 4).
Here I give you what I already owe you! May you hear in it an echo of the voice of the Good Shepherd!
In Christ,
Fr. Roger J. Landry
