SEPTEMBER 2025
On August 26th, the 2025 Cardinals Forum offered a powerful reflection on Unity in the Church. We’re grateful to our guest speakers and all who joined us—through thoughtful insights, shared prayer, and meaningful conversation, the evening beautifully captured both the grace and challenge of walking together in faith.

And the survey says …
In February, CPI opened separate surveys to pastors and parishioners to understand the homiletic experience of both clergy and the Catholic faithful of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. THANK YOU to all who participated in the surveys!
The responses have been collected, collated and interpreted – click here to read more on the Research Page.
Now we’re on to creating vibrant programs with what we’ve learned. We encourage you to visit this site often for updated information about these programs – and how you can contribute your time and talents!

Throughout this our inaugural year, we have celebrated each month the feast days of remarkable preachers who helped shape a fledgling Church, and who still influence how we celebrate our Catholic faith today. You will find curated reads about each in our Bookshelf Archive.
As 2024 ebbs to its end, this Advent we remember the CHOIRS OF ANGELS, those celestial beings created by God for his kingdom. Especially during this season, we remember those heavenly hosts – named and unnamed – whom God selected to break into human history to announce the coming of the Saviour!
The Angels of Christmas: Hearing God’s Voice in Advent explores the four angelic visits to Zechariah, Mary, Joseph and the shepherds. May we never forget these first “preachers” of the Good News.
A blessed and transformational Advent and Christmas to you and yours!
