CARDINAL Reinhard Marx of Munich, chairman of the German bishops’ conference, said he is often disappointed by the quality of homilies at Mass and raised the question as
to whether lay persons should not be allowed to give the sermon, writes Christa Pongratz-Lippitt in the current issue of ‘The Tablet’.
He was speaking at a meeting with the archdiocese’s lectors - or readers last week.
“Should only priests be allowed to preach?
Things must move on.”
Cardinal Marx should come to The Three Patrons Church in Dublin’s Rathgar some Wednesday morning for the 7.30 Mass.
