🙏 See below for the Act of Spiritual Communion:
My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

Update: whoever prayed for me thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am doing much better. :::I have a hard time going to Mass because I have hemorrhoids. I cannot sit in the pews because it hurts and I'm very uncomfortable. If someone could please pray for me, I would appreciate it very much. I pray and pray and pray that these things go away. Thank you.
Prayers. You may want to try sitz bath
That last bit, talking about those who can't come to mass in person, really touched me, because I am one of those people. I don't know if I'll ever be there in my lifetime. So I thank you for that inclusion. Deeply.
Thank you, Father Mike, for giving us another awe, inspiring homily. You have a special gift and you use it well. Lord Jesus, help me to use the gifts you have given me through the Holy Spirit.
How do you attain salvation?
And in the way you deliver the homily every Sunday, making it interesting, inspiring, informative and entertaining, I’d say you have been blessed with a wonderful gift
God Bless you and those behind the scenes making this ministry available for us.
Thank you as always for providing a holy mass that I can access in the palm of my hands. ❤ Jesus is king❤️
Such a beautiful thought so nicely expressed. Thank you.
God bless you Father Mike
Thank you Fr Mike 🌟
Happy Feast of Pentecost 🕊
Our talent is God's gift to us.
What we do with it is our gift to God.
Our gifts are very pleasant to God.
He loves to see us offer our time, our talents on the alter.
Even the smallest act of kindness brings a smile on the one who created us.
Forgiveness is the greatest gift we can offer our Father in Heaven.
Holy Spirit 🕊
our helper and guide gives us peace of mind and heart! And the peace the Holy Spirit gives isn't fragile...
Holiness is a gift from God.
We accept this gift when we choose to do those things that increases the power of The Holy Spirit in our lives.
The Holy Spirit has the power to transform our lives🌻
Good morning Fr. Mike Schmitz from here in Bay Area California ,thank you for your inspiring words so emotional .
Thank you for praying over us and praying with us and praying for us. Thank you for your private faithfulness to prayer, to the Office and the Mass, to your own confessions and rosaries and fasting. Thank you for fighting every day to be men worthy of the call.
Thank you for preaching Christ to us, for bringing Christ to us, for being Christ to us. Thank you for putting out into the deep. Thank you for following him, never knowing where he will lead you. Thank you for teaching us to trust, for teaching us to love, for teaching us to live.
Father, bless me as I seek to share my faith and your salvation with those in my family and among my friends who have not yet called on Jesus as Lord and have not yet surrendered their lives to him. Help me not to push them farther away, but instead, help them see all the ways you have blessed my life. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
Wow! What a really great homily! How I take for granted oh so many things! I don’t Thank Gid enough to do the simple acts of living daily!! Ty FR Zmike ❤🎉🎉🎉
This Priest has brought me closer to God in so many ways. He has interpreted the word in today's terms in a way no one else has ever done for me. So I thank you father so much for all you are and all you do. Some day I will make my way to Minnesota and shake your holy hand. Thanks Again to everyone who brings this mass to me week in and week out. You all are truly the definition of pure Love. Thanks again. Joseph J.Benko New Brunswick, New jersey
Wonderful sermon thank you FATHER
Thank you!
I attend Mass online because of a very weak immune system.
My diocese has given me permission to attend online.
However, during the week, when there are fewer people in Mass, I plan to attend.
Thank you!
Great homily. I could listen to it over and over. Thanks Fr. Mike.
I am grateful to have been able to participate remotely in a Pentecost Mass while traveling via this posting. Thank you, Fr. Mike and co.
If you can tolerate a reflection on the homily...I appreciate the "huddle without offense" metaphor as an inversion of the "offense without huddle" field play. Both John of the Cross and Therese of Lisieux emphasize repeatedly, though, that a single action performed with great love is more powerful than many actions performed with little love. So I wonder if our core challenge isn't so much to "do more", but to do what we do with more love.
All of this said, thank you again for the opportunity to connect spiritually with the celebration of Pentecost as a remote participant in your huddle today.
Thank you lord Jesus Christ Amen🙏
I have found a place for myself and all my cats to go. It's a beautiful home by the lake. Praise God!
Father Mike I pray for you may the Holy Spirit continue to bless you and your ministry. I pray for everyone’s prayers and intentions. Please bring my daughter back to God and back to her faith. I also pray that I may see the gifts the lord has blessed me and how to use them in my life. I pray for my gifts from the Holy Spirit
Loved the homily. So relatable.
Lord Send out Your spirit and renew the face of the earth. Amen. ❤
Please pray for me and for my colleagues that we can stay in medical school
Thankyou Fr Mike for offering this mass for us; you are a Joy & a blessing from God. ❤
Offering this Mass for my husband who had Spine surgery 4 days ago.
I am praying today that I will be able to renew a good relationship with my kids and my grandchildren. Jessica, Amanda, James, Enric, Eltamae, and Emmerson: if you're out there and listening to Mass like me; I love you and I'm grateful that ❤️ I get to be your mom and grandma. Thank you, Fr. Mike and Front Pew Crew.
Thanks! Father Mike for the mass God bless you and the Ascension presents team .
Prayers for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory especially all those who are in most need. Amen. ❤
Please pray for me Father Mike and for my vocational discernment!
Use the gift God has given you.
Ever since finding Father Mike's sermons, I have felt such a peace and his excitement at reciting the bible and giving his homily is catchy. Today touched my heart as my daughter since 2019 does not sit, stand, walk, or sleep without constant back pain from a much needed surgery in late 2018. We have tried different pain medications and nothing helps. I ask for prayers please as I am able to thank God for letting me sit without pain but it breaks my heart my daughter cannot do the same.
Trust in God. You and your daughter are being tried. Pray for strength to get through this trial. Trials are filled with blessings. It is hard to feel or even see the blessing while we are in the valley of shadows. Keep walking and you and your daughter will reach your mountain top blessed, graced and strengthened.
Lovely homily and message. When we receive a gift, we can thank in two ways- 1. Say thank you, and 2. Use the gift. Imagine giving something to a child and that child keeping it in the cupboard instead of using it. Now imagine if a child immediately starts using the gift and smiles at you while doing it. What would you prefer? The same is true for God. We have been given this life and our skills as well as resources to do the next right thing and to help others in the best way possible. God is glorified when we use our gifts in our career and life. The reference to the 1980 movie named "Chariots of Fire" was so important. "God has made me fast and when I run, I feel His pleasure." When you have a skill of painting, engineering, singing, research, speaking, leadership, etc. you have to use it to glorify God through your achievements and also sharing about God's impact, especially Jesus' impact, on you. May God bless us with Gifts and may God bless us with the courage to use our gifts and to glorify Him. Thank you God and thank you, Jesus. God bless you, Fr. Mike, the Front Pew Crew, Team Ascension and the fellow attendees
Thank you for your gift!
You summarize Fr. Mike's homilies so well.
Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof say the word and my soul shall be healed. ❤
Thank you Fr. Mike for another inspiring homily. You indeed use your gifts from God & share with us. Thank you for the gifts & blessings you share with us thru the mass, talks, sharing among many other ways… God bless you in abundance.
How do you receive eternal life
May the Devine assistance remain always with us. May the faithfully departed through the mercy of God rest in peace.
Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee.
Amen
A Blessed Pentecost to you Fr. Mike and the Front Pew and all in your chapel. God Bless. Claire.

Good morning from Ontario Canada
When given the gift of a bike, with no garage, perhaps, that's the exact moment, to pray, and ask God, for storage solutions?? . Ask for guidance as to how best to accept the challenge, and solve the problem. . It is in these everyday moments that we prepare to receive grace, guidance and the holy spirit's wisdom thru the challenges set before us. .
The world needs more solutions to it's problems. and problem solvers .🚲💝
You can't use the gift of the bike, if you don't solve the problem of storage ..
Thank you
Thank you Father Mike 🙏
Lord hear our prayers
THANK YOU
Thanks you!
And inspiring sermon Father.
Every time I come back to a Mass, I find myself wishing that the congregation had more spark and fire in their voices. More animation. A sense that they are feeling and believing what is being said. Black churches do that better than white churches. Too many white churches mumble along like reciting mantras.
Hallelujah!!! I’m the favorite, $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell us more! Always interested in hearing stories of successes.
This is what Ana Graciela Blackwelder does, she has changed my life.
After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.
I know Ana Graciela Blackwelder, and I have also had success...
Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
Greetings Father Mike,
Key Thoughts :-
-> Pentecost Sunday Homily reflect with, "The Spiritual Contemplation to renounce Sinful Attachments and seek Spiritual Gifts through Sacraments for Spiritual Imitation of Lord Jesus Christ in every aspects of Our Life."
-> Great Insightful Words Father. Thanks Virtual Front Pew, Team Ascension Presents.
With Kind regards,
Ranjith Joseph (R.J)
Bad back and all…proud of you.
Blessed Pe
🙏
Amen
Ginger coffee helps with cancer,also, aloe vera applied topically! Too peppermint essential oil or a vapor rub with the three essential oils. And eating watermelon rind and lemonade. Not to replace doctors treatment but to be an adjunct to accelerate healing! God bless!
It bothered my husband that you hurt your mother's feelings over the bike. I have to say I thought the same thing, but understood the message you were trying to get across. God bless
God bless and all that, but is Fr. Mike wearing 2 watches? I'm curious as to why. Its a training thing?
Father Mike. I am a landscape architect and architect. I would be happy to help in the design of the chapel if there is a need for it. Trying to put my gifts to good use.
I think they have finished the designing phase as I saw a drawing of every thing
Also, last comment...there is not a hard and fast line between holy and ordinary. I believe just about anything can be holy.
