Preaching at St. Thomas More
Eschewing simplistic, self-affirming messages, preaching at St. Thomas More is robust and challenging, usually explicating the Gospel of the day, keeping our focus squarely opon the life, teaching, passion, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Homilies from our principal 10:00 a.m. Solemn Mass - almost always given by our Pastor, Fr. Bergman - are archived for one year, and appear in order below from beginning to end of the liturgical year, followed by the Solemnities, listed by date (these may or may not fall on Sundays).
