Another great homily, Father Mike. Your words filled with wisdom, faith and inspiration reach my soul. You teach me something, that I already know, but you bring it to light and make the mass more special by your words and examples. You are an awesome gift from God and I thank him for your presence in my life. God bless you!
I was dreading getting ready for mass this morning... But after this homily I was reminded just how much of a blessing it is just to participate in the sacrifice of the mass. Thank you Jesus! 🙏🏻✝️
Lifelong Catholic here and I found your explanation of Jewish sacrifice so enlightening! What a great understanding of the symbolism of worship. Thank you Father. I’m praying for you and Ascension!
I missed mass today. I've really been wrestling with God. I'm about to join a new parish with my family. The mother of my children have received their sacraments and I have failed them to this point. She just has been slowly stepping into what it means to be Catholic. This homily was a helpful reminder that it's not just about communion. But to actively participate. Thank you
Yeah it was a GREAT homily father 💖 as I sat there in church this morning begging for my soul 💟🙏 to be cleaned of this TRASH. sick of the bitterness and anger 🤬, and no HONESTY with some family 😭. It hurts and it's why I can't do the body and blood yet 😅. Amen God 🙏 bless everyone
Hi Father Mike. I appreciate finding you in 2020 and including your homily to my morning routine every Sunday. You prepare me and augment Teen Life mass Sunday evenings and appreciate that you reminded me that mass is not for me, but worship to God. Thank you! God bless you.
Fr. Mike i just love the enthusiasm in your face and excitement in your voice, as you explain the Great Amen. And we the people, continue to answer in a dull, mentally absent, monotonous manner. I am going to TRY to be more attentive and answer with greater fervour . Thank you.
Father Mike, you simplified the most important part of the mass for us and how we are supposed to participate fully! I need to go to your sermon last week and add to this knowledge. Thank you so much!! You are loved. ❤️🙏🏽
I like that the symbolism is explained more thoroughly. Most of the scriptures are based on middle eastern culture and ancient religion rituals thousands of years ago.
Wow! I'm 41 yrs old and I finally understand it completely. I wish this would have been explained to me this way back when I was 9 about to do my 1st holy communion. Thank you for explaining it so well. 🙏 ❤
Excellent lesson. I had always thought the (important) moment of transubstantiation happened when the bread and wine each are lifted by the priest and bells or chimes are wrung three times signifying the change. 🤷♂️
Yes, transubstantiation is important and yes the bells are rung when Jesus is brought down on the altar, but He is not offered in that moment to the Father. He must be made present (through the words of the priest “This is My Body” etc.) before He can be offered up to the Father in the “Through Him, and With Him, and in Him” prayer. I used to think the moment of consecration was the most important as well. Some books I’ve loved on the Mass are “A Biblical Walk through the Mass” and “The Lambs Supper.”
Today I read the gospel and I found myself feeling like “Bartimaeus” in so many ways and times In my time at my church.. as the one begging in church sitting in the pew asking Jesus to see me. To help me see. that I’m worth Jesus seeing me. That I’m worth seeing me, but like Him, everyone was instead telling me to be quiet .. am I worth loving ? After communion, I was listening ti the singing and I just broke down, because I have been foolish, letting what others do in church stop me from seeing Jesus, feelings of unworthiness. Why didn’t I get chosen to participate in “special events”. I guess I’m just a beggar outside the church..
God bless you for this anointed sermon. I was so moved by it and it led me to pray immediately and thank Jesus for taking my place on the cross. My amen will never be lame again!
Unbelievable Homily Fr Mike! I think this is one of the most important homilies you’ve ever done and like your presentation at the Eucharistic Congress I feel like every Catholic especially in the United States needs to hear it.
Profound homily. Valuable words of inspiration. Never have l come across such clarifications on the Sacrifice of the Mass. Fr.Mike l keep saying you are an amazing gift. I thank the Lord for your priestly ministry services.🙏
I used to give a lame amen but remembering your explanation, bringing to light the most important part of the mass, my Amen is now full of honour, glory and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you fr Mike for this explanation. Will teach it to my kids too.
Wow! So good Fr Mike. God bless you always and thank you Father in Heaven for this sacrifice 🙏🏼 Jesus I love you! And I will do my very best to share this so that we can all realize we are made to worship. I will always make sure to remember this during mass.
Y'know... This one keeps making me weepy, & i'm a butcher's daughter. (Longtime vegetarian, failed vegan) Thank you, Jesus, for saving us AND eliminating that practice and market of animal sacrifice. 🙏💙❣️//15:38 "There it is... THE Circle of Protection!!" - my inner nerd when i look at the Eucharist, at that moment. It's followed by, "Darnit, i need to be Catholic." 🫤
There should not have BEEN a shut down, lockdown, church closings. Love, nurse who worked through it and saw straight up crimes and the church went along with it.
Take a little time to reflect selah when I pray I say amen and selah and I feel the confirmation of the spirit so in my own opinion at the end of a prayer say in the name of Christ amen and selah...
I always pray that I become a successful Catholic Social Media Influencer to spread the teachings and Revelations of the Catholic Church and the entire Christendom. I hope and pray the Devotion to the Eucharist and the Holy Souls in Purgatory helps me.
Glory!!! After so much struggles l now own a new house with an influx of $155,000.00 every month God has kept to his words,my family is happy again everything is finally falling into place.God bless America 🇺🇲
It is simply the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US amd abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
OK we need to have everybody understand the math like you explained it. I believe your homily should be sent all over to every diocese to be read at every mass and then it should be printed out for people to read it! Can we get a print of it please?
"Losing the Temple"... So many worshippers are feeling this pain as dioceses are selling off churches and combining parishes. To lose the church you've loved all your life is a very sad thing.
At the Church I go to, they've started to allow teenage boys from the all-boys high school next to the church to give out the Holy Eucharist during Communion. They also do the Blessing part if the attendant chooses not to take the Eucharist. Is this common practice now? I thought that only a priest or ordain lay-person was allowed to give the "Body of Christ" to parishioners.. or at least, that's what I remember growning up during 12 years of Catholic school. I've been an off and on church goer for the past several years. Only went back to Sunday service regularly because my children are taking their First Communion classes.
Fantastic channel Father Mike ~ thank you! Do you have any videos on why we get so sleepy, distracted, or interrupted during prayer and scripture study? Blessings always!

O need 3 of them but need 2 witnesses, is this one that I DON'T see or be with, Thanks for your hand right, there doesn't need to be any wedding or any of these things for him to do what he does,
Hello Father I have come to figure out an answer to the ultimate question, and is really simple , from Paradox and why we are here. But I cannot just say it, I can say it but you must not tell anyone. Answers the question on why we have not found life out there. And is right where God Intended.
This might seem like a random question, but I have been curious as to why we never take the Eucharistic cup of the blood of Christ anymore. I keep thinking they’re going to bring the blood of Christ back to the mass, but it has never returned. Is this going to be a permanent thing? The Eucharist in the form of the host, but no wine. My dad couldn’t even answer me and that is unusual ; he is the most Catholic guy I know.
I understand why the Christians didn’t need the temple after Jesus’s death and resurrection. But why didn’t the Jews rebuild the temple after it was restored in AD 70?
Another great homily, Father Mike. Your words filled with wisdom, faith and inspiration reach my soul. You teach me something, that I already know, but you bring it to light and make the mass more special by your words and examples.

Praised be Our Lord Jesus Christ for priests like Fr. Mike who enlighten us with their teachings!
Dear Lord, we could do with more like Fr Mike!
💖💖💖
I’ve been a Catholic my whole life and have never heard this explained so clearly! Thank you, Father Mike.
Just like healthcare, we have to go over and beyond what we get at the baseline. Same here. learning more every day
You've forever changed my experience and understanding of Mass. Incredibly grateful.
I was dreading getting ready for mass this morning... But after this homily I was reminded just how much of a blessing it is just to participate in the sacrifice of the mass. Thank you Jesus! 🙏🏻✝️
Slow down
This is truly eye opening. Thank you for this incredible homily and God bless you all
Lifelong Catholic here and I found your explanation of Jewish sacrifice so enlightening! What a great understanding of the symbolism of worship. Thank you Father. I’m praying for you and Ascension!
Vergelt's Gott!
Love God thru worship.
Wow! Fascinating ! Your description of the Jewish sacrifice was clearer than any I’ve ever heard.

Jews of old loved their lamb after two weeks in their home. Too many Women today cannot love their child living in their womb.😢
We don’t value children
🙌🏻 to be active participant at every mass celebration. Thank you this is help
God bless you Father 😊
I like that the symbolism is explained more thoroughly. Most of the scriptures are based on middle eastern culture and ancient religion rituals thousands of years ago.
Beautiful
Thank you for teaching us, Fr Mike! Awesome! Prayers of worship this Sunday morning 🙏🙏🙏

I learned everything you talked about in your homily, on the ascension app. There is a study of the mass. Thank you Asvension!
FANTASTIC sermon, Fr. Mike. Great information that ties things together so beautifully. Peace and blessings 🙏
In Jesus name Amen Thank you LORD ❤❤❤

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the MOST SPECIAL EVENT in the Universe. Jesus HAS invited you to that. REJOICE!
Hello Pastor Mike, I’m so glad I found your channel. I like your sermons your videos are great. Looking forward to Sunday! ❤
God bless you for this anointed sermon. I was so moved by it and it led me to pray immediately and thank Jesus for taking my place on the cross. My amen will never be lame again!
Unbelievable Homily Fr Mike! I think this is one of the most important homilies you’ve ever done and like your presentation at the Eucharistic Congress I feel like every Catholic especially in the United States needs to hear it.
Lord Jesus Christ pray for me and my family son daughter family and my loving grand children Amen 🙏❤💜💐✝
Profound homily. Valuable words of inspiration. Never have l come across such clarifications on the Sacrifice of the Mass. Fr.Mike l keep saying you are an amazing gift. I thank the Lord for your priestly ministry services.🙏
Thank you, father Mike for another great homily. God bless you🙏
I think this is the most important homily I have ever heard. I've been Catholic for 6 years, and never knew this. Thank you, Fr. Mike.

Sweet Jesus, I praise You. I love You. I thank You.
Thank You for the mass, we come together as a community of love to worship You, giving thanks for all your blessings and graces 🙏

❤❤AMEN 🙏
Amen , it’s clear as water 🙏
Praise be to God❤❤❤
The lamb of God.
Thank you Father
The Lord has done great things for us, we are filled with joy.
Y'know... This one keeps making me weepy, & i'm a butcher's daughter.

Amen and amen! All Glory to the Father!
Thank you for this excellent homily! Both educational and inspiring! Thank you!
Amen!!
Thank you for your powerful teachings Father ❤
Thank you father for teaching me more in depth the scriptures, I turn around and we talk about it to our youth group❤
There should not have BEEN a shut down, lockdown, church closings. Love, nurse who worked through it and saw straight up crimes and the church went along with it.
Thank you Father!! Thank you!! God bless you for ever!
❤AMEN!!!!❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 THANK YOU FR MIKE🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Take a little time to reflect selah when I pray I say amen and selah and I feel the confirmation of the spirit so in my own opinion at the end of a prayer say in the name of Christ amen and selah...
Thank you Ascension and Fr. Mike!
Wow I kind of teared up during this homily it's very beautiful.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love this homily! Really needed to hear it. Thank you!!
I always pray that I become a successful Catholic Social Media Influencer to spread the teachings and Revelations of the Catholic Church and the entire Christendom. I hope and pray the Devotion to the Eucharist and the Holy Souls in Purgatory helps me.
I knew what the important time of mass was --my mother was late all the time, but as long as we got there by the consecration, it counted.
🙏🏼
Amazing explanation of the SACRIFICE of the Mass.
"All we need is the three of us for this wedding."
"Aw thank you 😊"
"No not you specifically, we need a priest."
I love how father mike said "bro" lol
Glory!!! After so much struggles l now own a new house with an influx of $155,000.00 every month God has kept to his words,my family is happy again everything is finally falling into place.God bless America 🇺🇲
That's a major turn around. Praise be to Jesus our Lord. Hallelujah
But then, what do you do? How do you come about that in that period?
It is simply the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US amd abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
Big thanks to Mrs Christian Evelyn Mackie
Her top notch guidance and expertise on digital market changed the game for me
And by the end of the week I would keep the lamb as a pet. I could not sacrifice the lamb.
Father, the lambs were also "flayed" to remove their skin, a picture of Jesus's Scourging.
OK we need to have everybody understand the math like you explained it. I believe your homily should be sent all over to every diocese to be read at every mass and then it should be printed out for people to read it! Can we get a print of it please?
"Losing the Temple"... So many worshippers are feeling this pain as dioceses are selling off churches and combining parishes. To lose the church you've loved all your life is a very sad thing.
You are on point with this comparison. Hugs and solidarity.
At the Church I go to, they've started to allow teenage boys from the all-boys high school next to the church to give out the Holy Eucharist during Communion. They also do the Blessing part if the attendant chooses not to take the Eucharist. Is this common practice now?

Title got the attention of a Protestant.
