For the next two Sundays, our parish will be holding what they call a “pulpit exchange.” This Sunday, we will have an Episcopalian minister give the homily, and the following Sunday will be a Lutheran minister. Last year, both of them sat in the altar area with the priest during the entire Mass. What should I do when they are giving the homily? Get up and walk out, or just stay there.
 
Dear friend,

The Code of Canon Law is clear that only priests (including bishops) and deacons may give homilies. (Canon 767) You have the choice of attending Mass at another parish on those Sundays.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
