    I am from Ohio and father Mark had a very profound impact on my life. I have been left starving for his passion for the word and my soul. Till we meet again. I will pray for his soul. You will be missed on this earth.

      He with ears, hear:
      Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
      Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
      Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
      These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
      There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
      They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
      Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
      "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
      Revelation 22:8-9 KJV
      8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
      9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
      Acts 2:38 KJV
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      Luke 11:13 KJV
      13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
      John 14:21-24 KJV
      21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
      22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
      23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
      24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
      3 John 1:11 KJV
      11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.*
      1 John 3:6-10 KJV
      6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.*
      7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.*
      8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
      9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.*
      10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.

    Unlike most of you I only got to know of Fr Mark the day after his passing, when his final homily popped up on my screen. Since then I've been listening to his past homilies every single day. Such passion for Our Lord and Our Lady, and the Truth. I'm shedding tears listening to this beautiful tribute, and can't help but empathise with his family, St Helena parishioners and those who listened to him online. In this day and age when true Holy priests are needed, we can't understand why God allowed this to happen. May Our Lady Consolata console you all, and May Fr Mark's soul rest in eternal peace.

      @@Call_Upon_YAHplease do your research as to where the Bible came from; I.e who compiled the Bible under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Our Lady always points to Jesus, never detracting from Him. We honour Our Lady as Christ honoured His mother when he obeyed the commandment to honour our mother and father. Scripture is to be interpreted through the magisterium which comes down to us from the apostles. The reason that there are so many denominations is there is only individual interpretation and no central authority. Jesus gave the keys if the Kingdom to St Peter. There are not millions of St Peter however all Popes who are Christ earthly representatives can trace there lineage down the ages to St Peter. Remember the bible was not originally complied immediately as the apostles expected Jesus to return soon. Also people of those ages had much better memories and Tradition was passed down (capital T) as there was no printing press at the time the canon of scripture was finalised.

    January 9, 2923 I came upon a talk Fr. Mark was giving at a retreat......and I was hooked! His love for the Trinity, for Mother Mary, and for Mother Church was contagious. His praying the Holy Mass was so reverent. Since that January, I've been attending Mass at my church, and then "attending" at St. Helena in Amite. RIP Fr. Mark and thank you.

Do him the honor to share the heck out of everything he has recorded, for this servant of God, definitely spoke the TRUTH! I wonder if speaking truth got him a killed.

    I just discover this amazing priest (Father Mark beard) a couple weeks ago and I have listen to several of his homily on UA-cam. He has impacted my faith and strengthen it with his knowledge and explanation of the faith. I have followed his teaching like given my intentions to the Lord and blessing myself. When you do something three times it means complete. I pray for all the parishioners of Saint Helena for the lost of their spiritual leader and pray they get an amazing replacement. I also pray for his family that God be their strength through this time of grief.

    Fr. Mark is sorely missed, sadnes i feel is big. Praying for repose of his soul, that our Lord be mercifull to him and brings him home to Heaven. His homilies spoke directly to heart, clear message, always with love and pation for our Lord and our Lady. We were trully blessed to have him as a priest, but Lord wanted him home before we thought it is his time. Thank you Fr. Mark from bottom of my heart for all that you did and were. Please pray for us from Heaven, don't leave us orphants. God bless you!

    I started watching his Masses during Covid. Before that, I would read his homily every now and then that was forwarded to me by my sister. Always profound…and inspiring. I never attended his church in person, but would listen to his homilies every Monday morning while I ate breakfast. A beautiful start to my day and week. I always looked forward to it! He was wonderful to go to for confession and I 😮absolutely loved his mission and vision for Chatawa. He is dearly missed. I agree, pray for his intercession so Sainthood may come. A truly touched by the Holy Spirit and Mother Mary priest, Father, brother, and man. Prayers for his parish and followers and for Bishop Duca in finding a replacement for his parish. 😢❤💙🙏🏻🙏🏻

    From Pennsylvania, my deepest sympathies to Father Marks parents, his parish and his Diocese. I loved tuning into his homlies even after hearing my own parish homily. I loved how he was on fire with the faith and how much he wanted to share that love of the Gospel with all of us. He wanted us all to be on fire and share in the joy he has in the Lord. We will miss him here on earth but I'm sure God needs him for another mission. May he rest in peace and be granted eternal rest and continue Gods work from heaven.

I saw Fr mark for the first time on you tube when he gave his last homily…, he was definitely on fire, as if God told him: if this was going to be your last homily on this earth, what will you preach? Extremely moving and passionate homily… People of this world, wake up! God is real and He wants your love!!! Fr Mark, pray for us….may you rest in peace.
