The series has been sent to all clergy of the Diocese and is available at dioceseoftrenton.org/eucharistic-revival-homilies. The first installment is scheduled for Masses the weekend of July 8 and 9 and will follow through with one homily per month. Each will be posted to TrentonMonitor.com after their designated weekend.

In announcing the new series to the Diocese’s clergy, Bishop O’Connell wrote: “I wish to thank all the priests who participated by preparing excellent homilies for use in the parishes throughout the next year. Yours was a real labor of love for our brother clergy and all the faithful during this parish phase of the Eucharistic Revival. I found them all truly inspirational.”
