Diocese of Pittsburgh Homily Guide

My diocese published the other day a "homily guide":

The Diocese of Pittsburgh has published a major resource linking the liturgical themes of the Sunday readings and feast days to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

To Proclaim the Gospel, a 228-page homily guide, will be presented by Bishop Donald W. Wuerl, bishop of Pittsburgh, to the diocese’s 319 priests and 41 deacons during the annual Clergy Convocation held October 22 and 23....

The local paper had an article on it yesterday, which I forgot to mention. Nota Bene linked to an on-line version:

.... Preaching and teaching about doctrine is sorely needed because it has been neglected as the church emphasized social justice and personal spirituality since Vatican II in the 1960s, said the Rev. Kris D. Stubna, the diocese's secretary for education....

I haven't seen it, but I'm already willing to say Bravo!

P.S. The Roman Catechism — a.k.a. the Catechism of the Council of Trent — was written specifically for priests as an aid to preaching and teaching the faith.
