Archbishop Lori Homily: Feast of the Transfiguration
August 6, 2026Archbishop William E. Lori
Yes, it is good to succeed in our chosen fields. To find happiness in our vocations and daily work. To leave the world a better place than we found it. But unless we are leading a transfigured life capable of amazing the world, unless we are manifesting the glory of God in Christ Jesus, we are not aiming high enough!

Archbishop Lori Homily: Catholic Biblical Association Meeting
July 20, 2026Archbishop William E. Lori
You and I both experience the need for a place of solitude, a place of quiet, apart from the world’s sound and fury, apart even from the dusty roads of mission, ministry, and the academy. It is there, alone with the Lord, that we can give voice to our questions, wrestle with our doubts, probe the Word of God more deeply, and in his grace, draw our conclusions.
