🌹~ Dearest Father ~ I believe your beautiful homilies are what you are supposed to do in answer to your perplexing question in front of The Eucharist during adoration. If you could merely give 30-40 minutes each Sunday (like you do) the glorious Word to your flock in the church, as well as to me in NW Ohio and to ALL of the 'Internet World' - your prayer is answered. You're already doing it! (O, the pros and cons of the internet) - You, my friend, have taken the "pro" and turned it into: Prolific, Productivity, Production, Proclaim, Progress, Promote, Prolong, Promulgate, Projecting, Prominence, and last but by no means least, PROMISE. Dearest Father, you're a GOOD MAN! Thank you for ALL that you do. I could listen to you all day. 🌹

Father I enjoy all your homilies but this is one of your most powerful that I have seen. The world needs more priests like you. I recently discovered my faith. I was raised in an Episcopal church. I felt the need to return to the church, but when I looked on the home page of where I went, right there was a link to LBGQT. I could not return there, so I have become a conservative Anglican where many of our beliefs are similar to yours. I wanted a Bible based church, not one being with current wokeism. I was lucky to find one. I can't thank you enough for your message on line which supplements my reading and my church. Thank you. Indeed our Lord Jesus Christ is with us if we only listen. Bless you Father.

Thank you, Father. I wish more priests had your gift for preaching. In that interview, Francis followed his “definitive No” regarding ordination of women with sufficient ambiguity about the future role of women being enlarged, but just without being ordained. Similarly, James Martin (whom we know is in “union” with Francis) is absolutely blessing gay unions and talking about how moving it is (he’s feeling some spirit). Perhaps Francis continues being as intentionally indefinite as ever to seemingly appease all (if you only listen to what you want to hear) while genuinely directing Peter’s barque directly into the storm.

WOw - another Fr. Mike and he's right here almost next door, not in MN! Hello from Memphis TN Father Mike, I just heard your explanation of what the Catholic Church says about homosexuality in order to have a good explantion for my 17yo son who is not at all homosexual, but he is concerned that people should not be shamed or belittled for who they are whether their race, or their lifestlye as gay. He grew up Presbyterian, as I just converted (or reverted-baptized Catholic) to the Catholic Faith after being invited to sing in the Choir at my town's Catholic Church when our Gospel Choir was silenced during the pandemic. I never really knew what the Catholic Church taught until I went through RCIA and read the Cathechism. I had never been sure what the Presbyterians believe *what the Bible says-yeah but there's a lot of stuff now that the Bible doesn't mention- well the Cathechism answers pretty much any question of doctrine you may have. Or go back to the old Cathechism for a different flavor but same teaching. And all of that is rooted in God's Word. But the most amazing thing is to come upon a priest that of course knowns God's Word, the Catechism and also is so serious about Truth he has given his life to bringing it to everyone - that is a blessing that gives me hope that our Church and our Spiritual Humanity will outlive this era of insanity. Thank you for your work Fr. Mike, I have liked and subscribed, will follow you regularly with heartfelt thanks. And if you ever come to the Diocese of Memphis, please let us know at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Germantown (suburb of Memphis). Peace.

From England, writing on July 1. Our major supermarkets Asda, Co-op, Sainsburys and Tesco all supported Pride Month. For this reason I boycotted them for the month of June and did my shopping in independent shops and in the German owned supermarket chain Lidl which do not support it. I do not want to give one bean to LGBT+ causes. Also I note that the LGBT+ lobby are very sensitive and call any criticism ''hate''. I have heard that some boys in the US have been charged with ''hate crime'' and could face lengthy prison sentences just for riding scooters over a pride flag painted on the footway,instead of just with a minor misdemeanour which would carry a small fine at worst. Some angry woman called police on them,it seems to be her filled with hate, not the boys, who I do not see as criminals, I seem them as MARTYRS.

I live in Pennsylvania in the US. We have many stores that support Pride Month. I boycott all of these businesses. I shop at locally owned stores that don't promote the LGBTQ propaganda. Many of my friends also boycott stores such as Target. As the saying goes...if you go WOKE, you go BROKE!
