    I was at the National Eucharistic Congress but missed the evening program because after dinner, I went to my room. I decided to shut my eyes for a few minutes and woke up at 10:00! Therefore I am grateful that I am watching this now. Fr. Mike is on of 3 people who helped change me from a cafeteria Catholic to a fervent Catholic. The others are Matthew Kelly and Bishop Baron .

Might have been his most important speech, but God was speaking through him last night about the need for repentance and for us to lead with love. Thank you, father Mike for your ministry.

      I will pray for the Church in Belgium. I’m so sorry to hear this, I can feel the sadness in your words. Just be reassured that the Lord is awake and active in His Church. I am a Jewish convert. I was converted by a dream in 1990. It was instant and dramatic, like St. Paul’s experience on the Road to Damascus. I was amazed to discover that Jesus is real, He is alive, and He has all the power and all the love. The Lord led me to the Catholic Church. I was received into the Church in 1991, the greatest blessing of my life. I thank God every day for my Catholic Faith.
      I believe that, if the Lord could convert me, He could convert anyone. I was very hardheaded and not interested in “organized religion.” It’s truly a miracle I’m Catholic, and fervent about my Faith as well. I attend Daily Mass, make Holy Hours, and pray a lot. I know the Lord is listening. If you can, spend some time with Him, in church, praying for a revival in Belgium, and I will be joining with you in prayer from California, for the same intention. Padre Pio always said, “Pray, hope, and don’t worry.”

    Fr. Mike's speech long ago about the True presence in the Eucharist was one of the flames that started my journey from lazy Catholic, to where I am now. I was of the generations that went through Catholic School and was not told about the true presence. That knowledge was one of the pillars that woke me up.. Thank God!
    I am glad now to know that my Nieces and Nephews are now learning it from early on.. Good! Leaving it out was a grave error.
    And just listening once again to Fr. Mike on the Eucharist and I've learned even more! God be Praised!

    What courage Fr. Schmitz had to preach this word in obedience to the Spirits prompting. Revival requires penance. We have plenty we need to repent of and make reparation for. Amen!

    This was powerful. I am duly educated, especially about the link between Jesus' sacrifice and that of Abraham. And the question about the fire extinguishers has set me on a new path so seek God anew. God immensely bless you Fr. Mike.

    I am never so awake just listening to Fr. Mike. He is indeed the one who clarifies how and why Jesus sacrifice himself, because of His love for us, and we all knew it, but continue not to acknowledge because of the hardness of our heart that continue to embrace the earthly pleasure ignoring that the pleasure we are promised is glaring everytime we go to mass. And that is the eucharist that continue to remind us until we all get it right. God bless you, Fr. Mike for reminding us tonight.

    Your message touched me so much Father. In this season of saying no to indifference and rediscovering my relationship with my first love, I feel more sure about nuturing my relationship with God and putting him above all, as it should be. God Bless Father Mike!🙏🏻

      And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Matthew 23:9 Catholics don't even match the Bible. The Holy water, Nuns, forced celibacy, etc.

    Excerpts that touched me so much. “There can never be a revival without repentance. Identify the fire extinguishers in our lives to keep the fire of my love for God glowing. Knowledge can make someone great but only love can make us saints” (Fr Mike). Thank you Fr Mike. Love from Ghana❤❤

    ❤ I'm so happy to have found the full speech! We replayed the short yesterday and it led to a powerful reflection on the importance of the consecration durng the Mass. Sometimes the community lets out an unenergetic "Amen" and it is such a sacred moment. Being there at the moment He offers His life for us... the moment the bread becomes a part of His heart for us to consume. ❤
    Great job on this talk Father! God bless you and always lead you.

    Watching Fr. Mike speak, you could see and feel his passion- as he desperately tries to help everyone understand. He is such an amazing speaker and what a sense of humor!
    I love how we don’t talk about Ferb!
    He is a gift. ❤️
    Favorite take away;
    Knowledge can make one great but only love can make a saint.

    Yes I knew the stories. I knew that Jesus fulfilled the stories of the OT but I never recognized how Jesus life mirrored the stories of the OT until Fr. put it together so seamlessly. I now grasp the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist so much more clearly. Secondly, I have long felt a curtain separating me from Jesus that I didn’t understand. I wondered if it was a dark night of the soul experience. Now I need to take time to look for the fire extinguishers. Praise God for working through Fr. Schmitz to bring this enlightenment. ❤
