This series of three volumes, following the A, B, C Cycles of the lectionary, offer homilies by Catholic women from the around the world. This is taken from an ongoing project, “Catholic Women Preach,” which has featured videos every Sunday for six years. This series will make them available for weekly meditation, an inspiration for homilists, and a resource for courses in homiletics. Contributors to this project are a “who’s-who” of distinguished Catholic women—religious and lay, scholars, activists, lay leaders from across the world.

Russ Petrus serves as co-director for FutureChurch, which sponsors the “Catholic Women Preach” project. He holds an MDiv from the Weston Jesuit School of Theology and the School of Theology and Ministry at Boston College, where he focused on liturgics and catechesis.
