Fr. Meyer, I just came across your homilies on the internet and must say that they have really touched me. Your love of Jesus comes across so clearly. Your parish is so fortunate to have you as their priest. I never would have thought that a priest in rural Indiana would have such an effect on my life and help me to find the most important purpose of my life. Thank you!
FYI Purpose” is a quiet piano ballad where Justin sings about his relationship with God-his newfound purpose in life-and sends a message of appreciation his Beliebers. After years of personal struggles and media scrutiny, Justin’s found a new source of strength in his Christian faith, which he shares through the lyrics of “Purpose” and its spoken word outro. Justin’s been candid about his beliefs in the past, but this is the first time his explicitly addresses them in his music.
Jack Webb, thanks for watching. Our parish is a unique one. We have four historic campuses all within 10 minutes of each other in rural Indiana. Our church buildings were all built in the 1800's and do not have cry rooms. We believe at All Saints Parish that the beautiful noise of children in the pews is a sign that the Church is alive and growing. Bring the children! God bless you!
I respect the way you run your parish. However, I would hope that it can also be respected that when kids (some of them are not babies or newborns) make so much noise it’s ALSO distracting especially for older folks. When my kids made noise and I couldn’t get them to stop I had enough respect for the rest of the folks to take them outside. I get that the sound could be beautiful to some BUT I think that there needs to be a balance and respect for others and their need to be able to concentrate on the holy mass. I find it odd that the announcements at the beginning of mass ask that cell phones be turned off as courtesy to others... yet if a kid is yelling and screaming that is NOT addressed??
@@jackwebb5917 In our Parish our pastor askes those parents with kids sit near the side doors or at the back so whenever their kids are crying or making noises bring the kids out until they're calm down especially during homily. So many people come to our church they feel it is holy and let them concentrate on the Mass and prayers. God bless.
Moreen Gauthier offer your pain to God as a sacrifice for the salvation of souls. Unite your suffering with Jesus’ suffering on the cross & He’ll turn your pain and suffering into Glory as He turned water into wine in the Wedding of Cana. God bless you Moreen 😇 will be praying for you 🙏
Dan Duna Thank you so much for your prayers and your words of wisdom. You have helped me understand suffering in a whole new way...through Christ my suffering has purpose. 🙏🏻
me think all priests (especially in Australia) should study FR. Meyers sermons, so that they could inject some spirit into their boring Masses. Another thing I have noticed, that seems to have a lot of very young children in his church. They at this stage could not understand his talk, perhaps they should be taken to a separate room during homilies and encourage them to read religious stories/watch religious "cartoons" and give them some age based sermons. If the children's noisy interruptions don't disturb Fr. Meyer, I'm sure distracts the congregation.
ron lemuel- This is what is beautiful about Catholicism... the Children. We were all little once! The Catholic Church is life! Beautiful Life. May God Bless you.
Love this priest's homilies - straightforward, clear, passionate and Catholic!

Fr. JM is like the modern day St. John Bosco!! God Bless you Father!
The sound of kids in the background is what makes this video real. They are the water in the stream!
I hope and pray to be one of your audience one day... GOD blessed you Fr. J. Meyer

That amen at the end was a great way to catch people paying attention. :)
Excellent!
Many thanks!
Wow ... Your homily is awesome!!
Thank you Fr. 😊
Thank you Fr. Meyer, I needed. 🙏
Glad it was helpful! Blessings!
Awesome homilies
Very good.
In what city and state is your parish Father Meyer? I'd like to move there! God Bless You Father for answering Christ's call.
This will sound very rude, maybe. But I wish more parents would use the cry room.

How do I live my purpose when 75% of my time is spent living in pain and unable to do what I love.

Take Kids to play room its annoying!

This happens because the selfishness of the parents and they don't know how to discipline and give good advice to their children.
Children (babies, kids in all ages) are the future of the Church. Just like Jesus said in Matthew 19:14.
