    Thank you Fr Michael for another fruitful homily. I Love to hear your explanation of all the circumstances that are in the gospel. God called you and made you a priest. He gave you the talent in a very humble and eloquent way to preach his gospel and to bring us closer to him. I imagine that there are many people who converted to Catholicism after hearing your homilies. I can watch your videos several times without getting tired I absorb every word you say to put it in practice. God protect you and bless you. 🙏🙏🙏❤

    Father Mike your homilies are relatable to daily life . Their stories are our stories too. I would say that St Martha you mentioned is St Monica the mother of St Augustine. I was waiting what you would say about St Martha but your homily ended. so I assume it is St Monica.
