Thank you so much for this great gift every week, Father Dave. It does so much good for so many people...

[@KARENK1]

Powerful homily Pastor Dave! Yes the devil is after our children so we must look to Jesus and the Holy Spirit to open their eyes !

[@tedthetowerdoucette1933]

Hi Fr. Dave. Thanks for praying for all those w/ cancer. Our Dad Mike needs these prayers, as do we. Pray for all the youth who have to endure those false teachings. We were taught the truth at home. we even had "The Emperor Has No Clothes" as a storybook. But at school/ college and elsewhere, we've encountered every false teaching in the book. Only by the grace of God did we survive spiritually. The Lord looks out for us. Thanks for being one of the voices of truth.

[@donpatsy3152]

Great job! From Erie, Pa ❤

[@JaneSmith-jr9jx]

I think why you resonate with so many of us Father Dave, is that you apply Jesus's teachings to what is currently happening in the world...I really haven't heard other priests do this in all my years attending mass...I would always wonder why priests wouldn't address certain things, but you do!...Not only do you address what us happening, you do it so eloquently, without offending....just the truth, which needs to be said (and heard!)...Thank you Father Dave, Diane and Jess, for continually offering your gifts to all of us. God bless!

[@karahamil3657]

@Jane Smith, I totally agree! AMAZING !!! I thank God for Father Dave !

Father Dave, thank you for Sunday Mass. So many great Homily's and there is always one that has to be the best..............today I think I heard that Homily, now to try and pass the message to our children and grand children, bless you Father.

[@conservativedragon]

It was a wonderful message today. The bag of water is a good analogy for everything going on now and it's crazy world we live

[@lynnellison5223]

God bless you all.

[@hannahhaake925]

Thank you father Dave. My mom, Pat, died this past Wednesday and we bury her this Friday. Your masses had been what my parents had been watching these last few months since my dad struggles to get around. My dad and I were able to play this mass for her as our final Sunday Mass together. Her passing was unexpected but she hung around a bit and during that time my siblings, dad, and I have experienced moments that can only be described as God given. Thank you for your masses. They’ve been well enjoyed by my parents and I and mean a lot. God bless you.

[@susanaacostazimmermann9384]

On point as usual. ❤❤❤

[@FrenchieFriedRocky]

Fr Dave do you have an email address

[@maryouskin1985]

You are so right about the world being a muddy place. I have struggled with with forgiveness in the past, and sometimes the present too, but I have moved past that with the help of the Holy Spirit. Thank you for for continuing this on-line ministry even though many of us have returned to Mass. I am grateful to listen to your homily each week. I also look forward to your corny jokes. Yes I did get today's joke right away. You have helped me to grow spiritually and be open to the Holy Spirit! Prayers for you, Jess, and Diane, and a belly rub for Cragly!

[@mjjarrett1290]

“Bless them, change me.” Father Dave thank you for changing my heart. That beautiful statement has helped me get rid of old resentments. I am grateful. I ask you to please pray for my brother Christopher who is having heart valve surgery this Friday. Thank you again for such a wonderful mass! You always give me so much food for thought. May God bless and keep you and Diane and Jess.

[@TheFunfolks]

BLESS THEM, CHANGE ME !!!

[@joeforrest8330]

Yet another Fr. Dave'ism I've picked up after 3+yrs of following him-when saying The Lord's Prayer in church I find myself also raising my eyes up to our Heavenly Father, just like I've noticed Fr. D. does during every online sermon. It seems to make Jesus' words even more powerful and interactive. Keep on preachin' & teachin' us, Padre.

[@dollarineneeves5281]

I’ve been watching this Mass coupla Sundays now, from Chennai- South India! Way to go Fr. Dave- the world needs more of you ❤️

[@nancynolan7865]

Thank you Father Dave for never shying away from the truth.

[@madonnaferris2126]

Interesting twist on be all you can be. Forgiving is easy but forgetting is a never ending challenge.

[@dcruzowenita3066]

Thank you Fr. Dave. Powerful homily. I love your teaching first thing in the morning. God bless your team.

[@jacobkusnerik8809]

Another wonderful mass, Fr. I agree that the world is a horribly muddy place, but hopefully with God's help, we and the world can become better and happier. Also, if you could, pray for my grandmother, who is dealing with healing from a cat bite (as well as going through chemo) and also myself as I am trying to find a new job that is fitting with my communications degree and have been searching for about a year. I have yet to find one despite working hard. I really want to use my talents in a way God wants me to. Thanks and God blees.

[@nt3926]

I pray that I can become that person that can forgive those who have hurt me and my family. Father Dave, your words give me hope. I will pray to become that person. Anything is possible, more than I can imagine, if it is God’s will. Jesus, I trust in you.

[@carolenguyen1457]

We really needed to hear this homily Father Dave. You are so on point. Thanks for sharing this with all of us!

[@susiescherrer1692]

Your online mass is keeping me connected to my faith. I hear the Gospel better and can apply it in today through your explanations. Thank you.

[@eileenfahy7691]

Thanks as always for the mass ...lessons and insights and just as important... Humour, 'Will Smith coming from Miami trying to slap someone' so funny 😂 😂

[@citaocampo6582]

From Toronto Ontario Canada thank you Fr Dave. See you next week. I really wish I will have the chance to visit your parish one day. Hey ,used to visit Atlantic City to “check” the hotels . Maybe I can persuade the hubby to visit there again and do a side trip. Maybe. That would be nice.

[@heyholetsgo5100]

Dear Father Dave, I need your advice, please. I listen to you every week. You have in many ways restored my faith in God. I simply love how you explain aspects of the Catholic faith in a way that I (and apparently many others) can easily understand and relate to❣ In your homily a few weeks ago (April 30th), you mentioned the importance of keeping the sacriments. Jesus as our shepherd welcomes all who want to be part of the flock. And we demonstate our desire to be in the flock by keeping the sacriments. Yet I am told that I am no longer welcome to receive one sacriment per the rules of the Church. I am a divorced Catholic. I was married in the Catholic church. I have since remarried (civil, not in church). I understand I am not allowed to receive the sacriment of Holy Communion anymore. I long to once again be welcome to receive Holy Communion instead of receiving a priest's blessing at Mass. Is there anything I can do, aside from attempting to get my 1st marriage annulled, to be welcomed by God to receive Holy Communion again? It's very sad, especially at Easter and Christmas, to not be allowed to receive the body and blood of Christ. Thank you in advance for your advice and God's blessings to you, Diane, Jess, and Cragley.✝

[@debbieh8013]

I wanted to say that it is not hard to get your marriage annulled; 2 things - the marriage was invalid from the start due to any number of issues: addiction, infidelity, etc. and the second, you need to be willing to jump through a series of hoops including a lot of paperwork and meeting with a lawyer from the Catholic tribunal. Your exspouse will be notified and is given a chance to share as well. With me, my spouse did not respond to the notifications. It took about 1 year. It was worth it because I was able to marry my 2nd husband in the Catholic church. If it means a lot to you to receive communion again, maybe it is time to start the process

[@heyholetsgo5100]

@@debbieh8013 Hi, Debbie. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I have explored the possibilities of annullment with the church. I was told that the reason to support the annullment (such as some of the ones you mentioned) needed to be present at the time of marriage; not things that came about later on. So, in the absence of those reasons, there does not appear to be grounds to support annullment. I am sure many Catholics must be affected by situations similar to this. I am hoping there is an alternative way back in to the sacriments that does not involve dealing with tribunals and lawyers. I pray that Father Dave replies to us since I thoroughly trust his understanding and interpretations of what the Bible teaches.

[@freetobe2694]

Father Dave, as a person with disabilities I began watching your church services online during the pandemic and continue to today because of difficulties finding transportation to a local church. Please understand there are many who utilize your gift of online mass as the only source of going to mass and appreciate the fact that mass is available in this manner. I only wish there was a way to receive the Holy Eucharist weekly . Thank you for the gift of attending mass regularly each week!

[@matthewlepak2878]

Beautiful Homily. Absolutely Amazing. So Fulfilling! The Truth. Prayers for all who love my friend Henry Korger who was 96 and recently met Jesus in Heaven. And for all of us to know God will supply for us. We don't need to worry about the news,. The Truth is Jesus Christ!

[@DanSmith-g4g]

Once again Fr Dave , fantastic homily, I pray that everyone understands what you are saying and that the muddy mess will clear up !

[@JudyFannon-jz4tg]

Love that you can apply what the readings talk about to todays’ world. You do that every week! I’m so glad that I stumbled on you a few years ago. God Bless you!!

Thank you again! I am in PA, and I hope that one day I’ll be able to travel to see you in NJ.❤️ I agree there is lots of mud and misguided teachings in this world. The blessed experience of my life is that although I have gotten very muddy, and followed misguided teachings, the teachings of the Christ that were deeply experienced in my childhood stayed alive throughout it all, and I am forgiven and those experiences brought me back to see the Truth clearly through the Holy Spirits guidance. I believe this broadcast and your team all are a gift of the Holy Spirit! May you be blessed with God’s Grace. Amen!🙏🏼🌸✨🦋🌟

[@annettepiche3158]

Thank you Father Dave, Dianne and Jess for sharing your time with me/us on line. I am ever so grateful to all of you. Today's Responsorial Psalm is in such a time of need to 'renew the face of the earth'. I do have a question with regard to the Gospel reading: "Receive the Holy Spirit Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sin you retain are retained." The last part 'whose sin you retain are retained' - what is that exactly? Does that mean if they (the priest, the disciple) chooses not to forgive - the person won't be forgiven??? I just can't seem to understand that bit of the statement. Come Holy Spirit!

[@dannymeaney113]

Thank you so much Fr Dave. I work shift and consequently often work Sundays. I tuned in to different masses around the world and stumbled on your mass about 2 months ago. Your homilies are wonderful. Such spot on teaching. All delivered with humour and enthusiasm. Today i read the comments for the 1st time. Nice to see one from Vancouver Island where one of my sons live; I've 3 sons and the 3 are in Canada. As most parents and a recent grandparent, i worry about their future and lack of faith, but i trust the Lord to look after them. Your homily today on false teachings and mud is so apt. God bless you and your team, Diane and Jess. As a dog owner, i love the way you include Cragly. Keep up the great work. From Ireland.

Hi Father Dave, please say a prayer for all of those who have been displaced by the wild fires in Alberta Canada. So many people have lost everything. Sure it's just material things but it's also their homes and the feeling of safety that they have lost. Please pray that Jesus will restore their faith in Him and in their fellow man by the wonderful donations of goods and open arms of the communities in which they have taken refuge! Please also bless all the firefighters who put their lives on the line for others. Thank you Father Dave, Diane and Jess for being there for us through Covid and for days like this when it's just too smoky to go outside. Love you all and God bless, Diana Mitchell, Alberta, Canada
