    This Parish has not yet realized how blessed it is. Father Mark is a powerful gift to this church. Embrace what you've been given and you will become an instrument of God. Take care of Fr. Mark. He, through the powers of the Holy Spirit, will care for you.

    Father Mark was a seminarian and then a deacon at our parish and we had the privilege of watching him be ordained. He has truly been called to serve God and he lives out that calling each and every day. You have all been greatly blessed having Father Mark lead you in your faith journey... especially the children and teens. Our kids definitely had an excellent role model for their faith in Father Mark.

    Greetings from Saskatchewan, Canada! I'm so glad that I stumbled onto this amazing, inspiring, and holy young priest a few weeks ago. This is really the only benefit of our shepherds closing the churches and encouraging "spiritual Communions" while they let fear dictate their faith and actions, rather than Almighty God. The Catholic faithful, out of necessity, have discovered some truly refreshing and truth-telling priests. We are being fed by the likes of Fr. James Altman Fr. Robert Altier, Fr. Richard Heilman,, Monsignor Charles Pope, Fr. Jeffrey Kirby, et al . . . and NOW, add Fr. Mark Bernhard to that list! Hold fast during these challenging times dear priests. We are praying and fasting for your fidelity and obedience to God, for your courage, and for your protection. These faithful young priests can help to catechize and evangelize our youth. St. Aloysius Gonzaga, ora pro nobis! Mater Dolorosa, ora pro nobis!

I remember looking around church when he preached and saw all the young people paying close attention to him and what he was saying. That was amazing. Fr. Mark looks so young and the young people of your parish will be attracted to him and listen to what he says. That’s a very special gift he has. God bless a you, Father Mark, and best of luck to you in your new assignment.

    So that's where they've sent you? Make sure you have glass put on all the doors of the offices and the confessionals to avoid any false accusations. You are rather handsome, though that will fade with time. And make sure all the women who visit the rectory are wearing respectable attire. Some people don't know the difference between the beach and the church.
