The Congregation of the Fathers of Mercy, which was founded in 1808, originally under the title of “The Missionaries of France.” The community was founded for the purpose of re-evangelizing the people of France after the Catholic Faith had been subjected to years of attacks and persecution during the French Revolution. It is now exclusively an American community. The Generalate of the Congregation is located in Auburn, Kentucky. The primary apostolate of the Fathers of Mercy is to conduct parish missions and retreats throughout the United States and other countries when called upon. The Congregation also staffs The National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion in Green Bay, WI, and two rural parishes in the Archdiocese of Louisville, Kentucky.

14:33 very few Priests have enough courage and wisdom to speak on the Mortal sins of Adultery, civil marriage and civil remarriage and cohabitation Thank you father!

[@eveliaclavicillas9238]

Thank you Fr. for a very inspiring homily.

[@edsteel6715]

Even after !!!

[@no.Cross_NoCrown33]

This video is so providential. I was married in the Church and I never received an annulment. We got divorced. Unfortunately my husband got remarried civilly..But I have prayed and sacrificed for him for for 8 years now. He, in the meantime has got brain cancer and he is living on borrowed time, he was only given 5 years to live and is on his 6th year. Now after 8 years my husband and I are communicating, but is still living in an adulterous situation. Now I have to beg him to get out of his sinful relationship and move out, but I don't know how to go about it.. I have to get advice from a good priest. Please pray for my husband to get back to confession before he dies.🙏

[@simon9428]

What you have done is not in vain since you have done it for Christ.Many might castigate you as being foolish but as Christ said Matthew 19:11. not everyone can accept this word. Some testimonies like yours uplift me spiritually knowing that there are still people who would rather die than to hurt The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus which loves us sooo much. Please read Isaiah 41:10

[@stringertheory]

Excellent homily!! Thank you Fr. Aytona!

[@pannamal5182]

I know my wife is in His Presence, after 46 years of holy marriage, I wish I could hold her today. 🌹

[@suzannederringer1607]

I typed this at the beginning of your talk. I see you've included it further along! Karl and Zita should be promoted as an example to all couples as they prepare for marriage. When Blessed Emperor Karl of Austria married his beautiful Empress Zita, he told her - 'Now we must help each other get to Heaven.' And so they did!

[@guillermaseria5750]

Thank you Father, Continue preaching God's words inside the Catholics Church...

[@raymondmartin7332]

God Bless You Fr for the short but precise talk on marriage in the church. Your explanations and references put marriage in the right perspective relating it to marriage between Christ and the Church. This is a very timely reminder needed in the world today.

[@VivianAsuncion]

Thank you Fr. Jewel Aytona. Thank you 🙏🏻 for your teachings 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@channelmoved9096]

What a great talk! I'd like to add that being a dad is a full time 24x7 job. It's a vocation from God. It can't be a singular focus, because there is also the full time job of being a husband which some would argue is more important. Next time someone questions the celibacy of Catholic Priests, tell them that I said being married and a priest and a dad at the same time is impossible and foolish.

[@sophiabululok2203]

Beautiful homily God bless you Fr.

[@humbertojrdelossantos3628]

Hello Fr Aytona 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@faustinamaria4060]

Thank you very much, Fr. Jewel, for this powerful, helpful, grace filledl and "truthful" homily! May there be many more priests like you who would be courageous to speak up and stand up for the truth, beauty & value of the Sacrament of Marriage and "shepherd" God's children to what is right, true, moral and pleasing to God...to what is truly faithful to the teachings of Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church (the church He instituted). God bless you and your community, Fr Jewel. May Our Blessed Mother Mary proectect and pray for you always. Shalom 🙏🕊️🙏

I needed to hear it this homily 🙏🏽

[@byronyadao5550]

The union of Husband and Wife in Holy Matrimony was approved by Jesus because he performed his first miracle on this special day. Upon Mama Mary’s request, he transformed water into wine. They should see each other as a child of God and ensure their spiritual growth. To be humble towards each other and not prideful. Be forgiving for each other’s weaknesses. Join other Christian couples in supporting each other. ADULTERY/DIVORCE is highly likely without Jesus in the centre of their relationship.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@normaherrera5521]

Amén ❤ Love to see there still are some good catholic priests out there in this modern world. Our priest at San Jose Catholic Church, prefers talking about gay marriage and homosexual blessings instead of the importance of husband and wife marriage. What a shame.

[@susanashields6166]

Marriage is a gift from "GOD" He does not force gifts on people. You can accept it or rebuke it!

[@ReyesRP]

CCC 2384 - “Divorce is a grave offense against the natural law. It claims to break the contract, to which the spouses freely consented, to live with each other till death. Divorce does injury to the covenant of salvation, of which sacramental marriage is the sign. Contracting a new union, even if it is recognized by civil law, adds to the gravity of the rupture…” So we can see here that divorce itself is a mortal sin regardless of whether you have sex or cohabitate after the divorce. If you are the one initiating the divorce you are guilty of mortal sin. As it says, a new union just makes it worse. The sin has already occurred before the new union occurs.

[@marystaramour5535]

Coincidence? GODINCIDENCE !!!! 🙏🙏🙏 Brilliant !!!

[@robertdelgadocapetillo8684]

Thank God I'm still single. Marriage is not always for everyone. If it were, we all would have been married.

[@sushibowl9707]

It’s all depends of your reason. Some women or men don’t want the sacrificial love to becoming one. They prefer to live selfish ways or just give their life to priesthood or orders. Some times women and men have childhood traumas that change their way to see marriage or having a husband. So many times we don’t put God first in our marriage. Other times we see bad examples in marriage around our upbringing, and we get scared to marry and compromise. Instead of putting the effort and faith that putting God first will bring us a husband or wife that fits more with our morals and life views, including sharing the same religio, etc.

[@virginiasouthas6748]

Marriage like being single or a priest/religious is a vocation. If our goal is to serve God, he will lead the way.

[@mystearicanohr9521]

“It takes three to make a marriage. A husband. A wife. And GAAAAWWD!” 😂

[@cateheze4223]

Marriage is not limited to satisfying biological or social needs, but is a way through which spouses can reach the fulfillment of their vocation to become "one flesh", as Christ teaches in the Gospel according to Matthew (19, 5). Spouses are called to love each other not only in moments of joy, but also in those of suffering and trial, imitating Christ's perfect love for the Church. Thus, Saint Dumitru Stăniloae sees marriage not as a means to achieve personal happiness, but as an opportunity to live a love that is the reflection of divine love. The Sacrament of Marriage is a path to sanctification, and the two spouses are called to live in Christ and through Christ, transforming their entire existence into mutual service, through love, sacrifice and communion.

[@sacredwondersmaine3310]

What do Catholic priest know about marriage?.... I would say....what do male OBGYN know about having a baby? I bet they (male OBGYNs) have never been asked! Thank you Father +JMJ+

[@m.935]

1:13 How is it possible that it took over 40 years for many Catholics to even hear about the Theology of the Body? Pope John Paul II delivered these teachings between 1979 and 1984, yet for decades, priests had access to this profound work and didn’t make it a priority to teach us. Even today, a large number of Catholics remain unaware of its existence. Why was such a critical aspect of Catholic teaching neglected for so long? Are priests aware of concequences of that?

[@crozbo1]

Beautiful homily and very refreshing to not hear the usual clause & escape from your cross ....an annulment. I truly believe there are marriages where it's legit to be granted one but when 99.9% of Catholics who divorce are granted an annulment and I personally know someone granted 2 then something is seriously wrong in the hierarchy of the Church.

[@Lancer-y5g]

The annulment and tribunals situations where some diocese have 100% declaration on nullity is the scandal of our time in the Church. God will not be mocked and these tribunal priests are making a millstone for their necks

[@sushibowl9707]

There is no true on that number. One has to know more about cannon law before throwing stats. Let’s ask for Grace.

[@Lancer-y5g]

False. There is data on that number. Reported in 2018 over 8 US diocese did report a 100% finding of nullity in Annulment cases.

[@Lancer-y5g]

Way to speak truth. There is an annulment scandal in America that many Catholics want to ignore. God will not be mocked by this heretical tribunals.

[@m.935]

No, the real issue is that 99% of marriages sanctioned by the Church shouldn't have occurred. Catholic marriage preparation has been lax since the sexual revolution. Those marriages are invalid. Enough with the Pharisaic approach to theology. How is it possible that it took over 40 years for many Catholics to even hear about the Theology of the Body? Pope John Paul II delivered these teachings between 1979 and 1984, yet for decades, priests had access to this profound work and didn’t make it a priority to teach us. Even today, a large number of Catholics remain unaware of its existence. Why was such a critical aspect of Catholic teaching neglected for so long?

[@S.Morales777]

@fathersofmercy💕🙏Fr. Aytona, thank you so much for your exceptional Homily. I believe that you know more about what a faithful marriage is, than more than 87% of us, proclaimed Catholics. I feel truly blessed to have you as my Spiritual Father. Thank you for your holy and dedicated service. God bless you, your loved ones, and Fathers of Mercy Community 🙏💕

[@lettycohen506]

Hi Father , i was married to my husband by a pastor outside my religion, am a catholic. Is that considered a church marriage for me? We have separated for more than 20 years and i got married again (civil), am i committing adultery?please answer me

[@filiamaria8]

read the Catechism of the Catholic church for more info, it is in the internet. you may also ask a Catholic priest personally. Either way, most marriages outside the Catholic church or civil marriage are Not Valid and count as fornication. God bless you and may you soon be married validly in God's presence🙏🙏🙏

[@marystaramour5535]

I’m afraid it is . I really would go see a priest 🙏🙏🙏

[@mcmdcuellar]

What happens when you has tried to help and he doesn’t change or don’t want to change . What are we suppose to do ?

[@Puffin289]

God can only change our lives. All we have to do is pray with faith, hope, and charity. Offer up our struggles to God. And peace follows.
