So much fun! These are great! Fr. Mike helped me by planting seeds that the Holy Spirit used to bring me back!

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

Queen of Hearts wow, I didn’t know that! How awesome!! Thanks be to God 🙏🏼

[@queenofhearts7726]

The Joy of the Faith indeed! Praising God all the way! Even throughout my 25 years away from church and the sacraments, I always felt Jesus right there with me, patiently waiting, nudging me (even as I called myself a “recovering Catholic” and “spiritual not religious”) and mostly just loving me no matter what. I was actually able to attend Mass and receive the Eucharist yesterday! I happened to pop in the church for private prayer 😉 just as the Mass was setting up to be live-streamed and after it was shut off, I was able to receive the Eucharist! I almost cried! It surprised me how very much agony it’s been not to be able to actually receive! Yes, I’ve made “spiritual communions”... just can’t compare!

My first time watching Fr. Mike. He is hilarious and I love him. Great gift from God.

He is an amazing preacher .... and I am not Catholic! 🤣 but I totally enjoy his teaching and follow Ascension Presents

[@lapacker]

May we hope for a Pope Mike Schmitz?

[@danielyoung5137]

Uhhh…well-yeah.Sure . One can always hope. Just pray for the current one before you get started making any plans😁

[@GinnyandEric]

He is definitely a Priest AND a comedian 😂

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

Ginny and Eric he really is!

[@darrelldw713]

Is comedy and exuberance in priests a positive development from the self-restraint, modesty, and gravitas of most pre-Vatican II priests and especially the saints? Even St Phillip Neri in his use of humor to attract souls to the way of salvation maintained these virtuous qualities. "Feelings are like waves, often wonderful to ride on but impossible to build on." The desire to be entertained needs to be mortified, especially in the most sacred matters, those of faith, morals, and worship.

[@stephenlennartz3466]

Fr. Mike's masses this Easter season have been a thing of beauty. I can't help but sneak a peek at the number of faithful online occasionally during his service. The last three have averaged approximately 25 thousand from around the world. Just amazing and always an awesome takeaway from his sermons. Thank you, Fr. Mike!

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

Stephen Lennartz agreed! It is truly amazing to see how people flock to him. I think he is the 2020 version of Archbishop Fulton Sheen. I’ll be putting out a new funniest moments soon so stay tuned!

[@mk273]

All his homily for the Easter season was really good. I live in New Jersey, only good thing happened due to the virus is I was able to attend Fr.Mike’s online mass. Otherwise I would have attended our local church..

[@KaitiandTaylorBFFL]

I totally agree! They have been such a blessing for me and my family!! Thank you Fr. Mike!!

[@GardenMinistry.]

@@mk273 question please: How do you view Fr Mike's homily? Is it on a specific website, or on a KZbin page?

[@mk273]

YooToobgurl86 I watch Fr.Mike’s mass during these lockdown days. His KZbin channel is Ascention Presents. They have mass on sundays at 10a.m eastern time.

[@daninspiration4064]

Thank you Fr. Mike he could have probably been a wonderful Husband and Father to his kids, but he chose to be a Priest and be a Father to us all. Prayers to you to keep on being healthy, strong and spiritually inspirational to millions.

The Catholic Faith is blessed for having such a charismatic pastor as Fr. Mike

[@patriciahaskins1956]

I'm your oldest subscriber (agewise). I'm *everyones* oldest subscriber!! With that said, I'll speak my mind. I think God has given Father Mike a beautiful and most useful gift. He is SO funny!! I'm not judging anyone, please believe me, but I don't feel that Father Mike is being disrespectful to God, Jesus, or any Saint. To me, he is saying outloud what most of us have said to ourselves and maybe felt a little guilty for. Perhaps he is saying it a little differently but I don't God takes offense. What a wonderful way to reach out to others-especially to young people! I am forwarding this to several of my young friends and I feel sure they will love the content and also forward! So there you go. How many people will God reach from this? You made my day.Thanks so much. Now I'm off to watch the other links you so nicely provided. Keep them coming and God bless!😍

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

patricia haskins this comment made my night! My wife and I loved it so much! I agree, he totally has a gift with preaching. After meeting him and emailing him many times it’s clear that he does all he can to glorify God. Thank you so much for sharing it. I hope that this video reaches so many souls!! Do you mind if I ask your age range? I would love to know an appropriate range because it is really impressive to me. So many people think they are too old to use KZbin.

[@ransomcoates546]

@@TheJoyoftheFaith To me it is sometimes almost unsettling the 'holy rays' that come off the the computer screen when Father speaks about important things. They used to teach us that spiritual flattery is a sin, but I have never encountered a person who seems so completely incapable of committing a deliberate mortal sin as Fr. Mike. He's half living in Heaven already.

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

Ransom Coates wow. That was so detailed! Through al of the encounters that I have had with him he is definitely the holiest person I know!

[@Schajena]

Thank you so much for this video...probably seen everyone of his talks. 😂😂 I am so happy for you...you met him...I have to wait till heaven... 🙂🙂 I love how he uses his humor to keep us engaged...and sometimes I was like where is he going with this...and then towards the end of his talks or homilies he brings it all home...and I am like WOW. Especially the first one...the very recent one spoke to me..."See a need, fill a need. You don't need to wait for permission to do good."

Steffi Berlin you are more than welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! It is awesome how he keeps us engaged through his humor, it’s priceless. That was an amazing tan huh? Yes, he is a very holy man. You can just tell when you are in his presence. Keep him in your prayers!

This Priest is hilarious! I wonder if he use his sense of humor at the end of his sermon just to keep the Parishioners awake and engaged :). I saw Bishop Barron's video yesterday and he was funny too as a host . I saw /heard his sense of humor for the very first time.He needs to do it every now and then, to balance his elegance/eloquence/wit/ poise/ class and Professionalism, which made him widely-known in the Catholic Church/Religious world.

I'd really like to meet him one day

[@TheJoyoftheFaith]

He is an awesome guy. I’ve met him several times and he is very Holy.

[@childofhashem7350]

He has interesting things to say, but he is wrong about the bacon thing. Jesus said "I did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it". He never said it was ok to eat pork. Just because he fulfilled the law doesnt mean we can break it. Ask yourself, are you fulfilling your marriage vows? Yes? So does that mean you can now be unfaithful? Think about it.

[@TeresaWolfe]

Peter's vision: www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+10%3A9-16&version=NIV . Bacon is fine!!

[@childofhashem7350]

@@TeresaWolfe I'm sorry, but you neglected to read on... many people think he is speaking about food... he is not speaking about food, but of people. Read the whole thing and you will see the truth. The answer is in verse 28. If you read all of the Bible and understand that Jesus was and still is a perfect Jew, you will understand that God sent His Son as an example for us. He showed us how to live. He did not come to abolish the Law. But to show us how to live it out. And yes, not eating bacon is one of them.... but more importantly, loving God and your neighbor. If Jesus would have taught us that eating an unclean animal was ok, then he would have been a false prophet, not the Messiah. And you and I both know that He is the Messiah. So if He is the Messiah, then He would not speak against God's Law, only rabbinic, man made laws. I hope this makes sense to you and to others. Blessings to you.....

Out of the mouth of my 11 yr old, his jokes are funny but the ones about Jesus are disrespectful!

He’s so funny that he has forgotten about irreverence. When a priest does this he needs prayers not encouragement. He is trivialising Christ to be popular, it’s disgusting.

[@GoblinxChild]

As someone who attended mass with him for 6 years, went to his confirmation classes, worked with him on campus as a student missionary, did marriage prep and was married by him, and is close friend, I can safely say that he is one of the most reverent and holy men i’ve ever known. I literally wouldn’t have found my faith if it wasn’t for him. Are you honestly going to judge him for his humor during keynotes and homilies??? Talk about disgusting...
