**How to suggest more reasonable themes/paradigms for the Covid-19 homilies (sermons) to the Catholic priests and bishops?**

If you wish you are always free to email your local ordinary (bishop) with your suggestions and concerns. Sometime you may get a reply and sometimes you will not. Any letter, it should be tempered with genuine charity and love for saving souls.

I have done it on several occasions. I prefer it when I do not get a reply because I have noticed it make more waves. In other words, I see the good results getting done. 

Emailing a pastor may not be so effective at all. I know priests who receive weekly emails criticizing their homilies and as such are rather tired of it. For a parish priest, I would recommend waiting for an occasion to talk to him personally even if that be via the phone because of the coronavirus situation. I can see how a comment on Facebook or in an email are simply disregarded by pastors.

You can always write the Holy Father directly. The best way is to write your concerns in a letter and send it to the [apostolic nuncio][1] of your country. 

The letter should be sent inside a larger envelope and with a outer letter requesting that it be given to the Supreme Pontiff via the next attaché pouch going to Rome. 

**Fair warning:** Such letters should be in an unsealed envelope, as the apostolic nuncio’s secretariat must read all correspondence destined to be handed over to the Pope in person. 

Not many Catholics have personal ties and friendships with cardinals or Vatican officials to circumvent this step. 

Go ahead and suggest your ideas in a letter to the Pope. Warning once more: Remain courtesy, polite, logical, and politically, scientifically, morally and theologically sound.

The People of God may manifest their concerns about homilies to their pastor, bishops and even the pope as the Supreme Pastor. This is backed up by Canon Law:

> [Can. 212 §1.][2] Conscious of their own responsibility, the Christian faithful are bound to follow with Christian obedience those things which the sacred pastors, inasmuch as they represent Christ, declare as teachers of the faith or establish as rulers of the Church.
> 
> §2. **The Christian faithful are free to make known to the pastors of the Church their needs, especially spiritual ones, and their desires.**
> 
> §3. According to the knowledge, competence, and prestige which they possess, they have the right and even at times the duty to manifest to the sacred pastors their opinion on matters which pertain to the good of the Church and to make their opinion known to the rest of the Christian faithful, without prejudice to the integrity of faith and morals, with reverence toward their pastors, and attentive to common advantage and the dignity of persons.

Homilies should be able to inspire **hope** and **personal holiness** in our times.

Homilies should inspire us to become saints and on the fast track during the **Coronavirus-19 pandemic**. Do not let the **pandemonium of Satan** rule our times.
