Deacon Rick was ordained a permanent deacon in the Catholic Church in 2012. He has delivered hundreds of homilies since that time. He preaches regularly at his home parish of St. Pius X Catholic Church in Indianapolis, Indiana, as well at school Masses at St. Theodore Guerin High School in Noblesville, Indiana, where he serves as president.
Deacon Rick believes scripture-based homilies should focus on one or more of the following: instruction, inspiration, or practical application. As for his homilies, Deacon Rick says, “I will occasionally devote an entire homily to instruction, but the vast majority focus on practical application. In other words, how can we live out the gospel message in our everyday lives? I hope all my homilies offer a bit of inspiration.”
Deacon Rick’s homilies capture the joys and challenges of being a husband, father, and educator. He embraces his role as an evangelist and encourages all the faithful to do the same. His homilies offer them guidance on being God’s storytellers as well.
