Fr. Illo as always, another great Homily! I admire your courage in speaking about this! I've read about the abuses that happened in Missouri since 1945 included some deacons, seminarians; 163 instances of sexual abuse or misconduct by Catholic diocesan priests against minors. It was incomprehensible & it makes me very sad as a Catholic myself! Thank you Father for your wisdom, fortitude & honesty about this! God bless you & Bishop Cordileone for bringing us a strong message about this! We need more prayer & more fasting!
What a wonderful homily father. As of this writing a Cardinal is now laicized. Maybe our fasting and prayers are shaking some things loose...Pray for Mother Church!
I saw this today and I admire Fr Illo for his commanding truths of our Church. If only more priests were more vocal against those who desecrate the faith by their active degrading vices that any Priest or cleric should abhor and actively counsel those who do. Call out all who have and still degrade the cloth they have abused.
Amen, Fr.! Thank you for your courage, honesty, and encouragement in the crisis. When I think about being angry about the lack of leadership and courage in the behavior of our shepherds, I am humbled by my own lack of participation in sacrifice for the sins and outrages against our Lord. I ask God for holy boldness and a desire and courage to fast and pray for a change in the world.
Bless you, father. I live in Hong Kong and have done nothing but cry since all this began. But also I have not forgotten Our Lord's promise that "the gates of Hell" will not prevail against His Church. He will never abandon us, and that is our flame of hope, and our sole joy in all of this. Again, God bless you for your bravery and honesty.
JMJ+ Fr. Illo, I left once years ago, came back, and promised my Confessor never to do it again. All I hear are JESUS' Words of query to Simon....as if HE were asking me directly, as well. And, Simon's response, " LORD, to whom should we go?" I hate the abuse and horror that has permeated JESUS' Church, et al..... but I'm still here, comforting and cajoling some of the faithful, and sometimes just myself. I believe in the validity and licitity of the Traditional, Apostolic Mass. I believe in the Catechisms of the Councils of Trent and Baltimore.......many do not. I can only pray for them, but the Cardinals and Bishops can and should do more. They must be brought to either publicly Repent and do Penance, and or leave the Priesthood and face civil justice, or both....? We, the people, deserve this, but GOD demands it. They blaspheme against GOD..... We are starving and in tears, while they are cancelling Holy Priests, murdering babies and elderly and the Deposit of Faith, and proclaiming bad, to be good. It is not! The condition that GOD'S Church has been allowed to sink is deplorable. You are one of the few Priests that continually speaks out about the abuses....so thank you, and please don't stop. amen.
Agreed with you 100%! I pray that he will be one day....Pope Illo! He's surely a role model for priests! Don't we wish we'll see more priests like Fr Illo? Every word he says is very uplifting!
Thank you Father Illo from all of the faithful in Australia. We need your wisdom and truth here. The Holy Spirit and Christ are indivisible despite the attempts to separate Christ from His Church.
There is an excellent CD about Our Lord's Real Presence entitled '' The 3 Veils of Accidental Appearance '' Catholic author and speaker Roger LeBlanc has made, Roger explains in understandable English how Our Lord is present in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and how He remains with us in every Blessed Sacrament in the country and around the world... Goggle his name and title of the CD and go to his website... Thank you to Father for an excellent and heartfelt homily, In Christ's Love... Peter Lepre, Envoy For Mercy (MIC)
Un cura que habla claro y pone los puntos sobre las ies....finally....a priest who speaks clearly , calling it like it is.....all, while to the catholic radio station operators everything is hunky dory....
As of 9/18/18 the audio is not working at all. Abuser sabotage? At least the closed caption still works. Happy to see some who are willing to openly resist evil.
I'm probably protestant and no great scholar here, but isn't there a place in Micah where the prophet speaks about something greater than prayer and fasting? Something about sackcloth and ashes being inappropriate at this time?
We are so blessed to have such a wonderful archbishop in San Francisco. Archbishop Cordelione works tirelessly for the benefit of all of us.

Zimnay God bless and keep you and your loved ones safe
God Bless you Fr Joesph and God Bless Archbishop Cordileone.
The Truth will set us free.
If this crisis leads orthodox priests like this to speak the truth with such courageous love, it will be a blessing in the end.
Thank you for explaining the importance of the priests and laity to fast. We are in this together.

This priest needs to be elected Pope!

@@Charity-vm4bt The LORD is with His Faithful ones...be courageous
@@JacGBoots1 you are probably not Catholic to make a remark like that.
Wow! This may be the best homily that has been given since the Church has been side swiped by the homosexual scandal.
My heart breaks for the children 😢

“To whom shall we go Lord. You have the words of eternal life “. Why would anybody leave Jesus’ Church because of sinful people within?
I'm probably protestant and no great scholar here, but isn't there a place in Micah where the prophet speaks about something greater than prayer and fasting? Something about sackcloth and ashes being inappropriate at this time?
This church isn't the church of christ.. repeat
