The Peace Pulpit
Homilies by Bishop Thomas J. Gumbleton

By special arrangement, The National Catholic Reporter Publishing Company is able to make available Bishop Thomas J. Gumbleton's weekly Sunday homilies given at Saint Leo Church, Detroit, MI.  Each homily is transcribed from a tape recording of the actual delivery and made available to you as an NCR Web site exclusive.  You may register for a weekly e-mail reminder that will be sent to you when each new homily is posted.  From time to time, Bishop Gumbleton is traveling and unable to provide us with the homily for the week.
NOTE:  The homilies are available five days after they are given, always on Friday.

Bishop Gumbleton has been part of a fact-finding delegation to Afghanistan which took place June 14 to June 23.  Because of his late return last Sunday, he was unable to provide us with the homily for Sunday, June 23.  We'll begin posting the Sunday homilies once again starting next week.
