I listened to this moving homily from the UK. If only the non believers would tune in and listened to what this priest has to say, their lives would be fuller and happier. Thank you father for a beautiful story
I grew up Catholic. I was starting to get bored of the religion. Most sermons I found were boring and felt I never received the word BUT this sermon was amazing!!!!! I feel it woke me up. GOD IS AMAZING!!!!!!! I will continue to live in his light. Amen!
Thank you father Meyer. Thank you Father son Holy Spirit for your Love peace and Mercy Help us to comfort those in fear and those. Who cause the fear and panic .Forgive us Lord Thank you Jesus for dying. For us Amen
Thank you Father, even for a while you took away our fear and reinforced our faith. I am praying for the world that people will turn back to our Lord and Savior
Please Father encourage everyone in your parish go to daily mass for us because we cannot go to mass, even on Sundays. I am from Manila, Philippines and we are not allowed to go out. I think Singapore and other SE Asian countries also do not have masses. Initially I thought, "Saddest Lent ever!" then I realized we are with our Lord in the desert. The Lord is making us hungrier for Him by allowing us not to receive Him. And so I began to be happy again. That said, please do everything you can for us.
How can you say that? Faith can help one “handle” the sickness and most of the time one will recover: however there will be a time when one succumbs to the sickness/disease and die and hopefully rise into eternal glory depending on how one has loved God and loved their neighbor. That’s the purpose of life, it’s relatively simple, yet chaotic at the same time depending on one’s situation to be born into. Peace and Health
Lord Forgive my sins , I put my life in and the life of all my family in your Hands . You will give us salvation and eternal life not because of our merits but because of your love and mercy , Virgin Mary cover us with your light and motherly love . Lord Jesus I put my trust in you .
I agree...those that are in fear have no faith in God. Jesus I trust in you. Ask God to forgive them for canceling Mass and not allowing us to receive the Eucharist.
Yes! We are as Christians are called to live differently. We have to take our Cross, and carry it. It is NOT easy being a fo!lower of Jesus, so many temptations and evils along the way, but, HE did say HE would not leave us, and will always be with us. Thank You Fr. Jonathan Meyer for this wonderfil Homily! God Bless You Always! Amen!
Father thanks for the homily to remind us that we should always trust God in all situations in life. Promised Isaiah 43:1-5 never to live us. As believers we must encourage other no to live in fear because it's a sign of doubt in God who is promise keeper. Bless you father
I am proud to say that I have been saved through faith in Christ and not through works. Ephesians 2:8-10 says, “For it is by Grace that you have been saved, THROUGH FAITH- and this is not from yourselves, IT IS A GIFT FROM GOD- not by works, so that no one can boast. Jesus uses the least gifted, the most unlikely, the poor and the humble to spread his Gospel. As I used to pray as a kid, “LORD I am not worth to receive you, but only say the word and I will be healed.” I am a Christian, not a Catholic!
We need to recognize the humanity of people around the world. This is this generation’s first pandemic. I thank God for my parents and grandmother, who taught us canning, making do with the basics: flour, rice, baking soda, oil, dry beans, canned juice and powdered milk. Dried eggs, pasta, ramen, dried fruits and vegetables, nuts. Used to get K rations and jerky from the surplus store. More than all that, the Living Word of God. As long as we all pray for each other every night, we will be okay. Nineveh repented, so can us. Love is the greatest commandment.
Trust in God. Don’t forget His Promises to us who Believe. He knows exactly what He is doing. Yes, this is a game changer. He will not forget His Children. Follow the Rules of Social Distancing, talk to the Lord, He wants to have Fellowship with us. His gift to us is External Life. Receive His Love today. Heal those Lord that are sick and hurting.
Why pray to marry when JESUS TELLS IM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE? MARRY IS GOOD PERSON BUT WHY PRAY TO HER WHEN YOU CAN PRAY TO JESUS CHRIST DIRECTLY.
@@dnomdefilipino2331because she is the one who has the highest merit with God, and all of the Saints are alive in Christ, so why not talk to the Lord’s mother? why not ask her to ask smth from her son (obviously hoping its the Will of God)?
During this time being a Catholic is really giving me strength, I hope the virus won't affect our family but I pray for everyone that does get affected , pray the Rosary to our lady , she's the queen of comfort
Lincoln & Welland Regiment Well the rosary is composed of the prayer our Savior taught the disciples, the angelic salutation from the Gospel of Luke, and the prayer of the Seraphim from Ezekiel. All of these are said while we inwardly reflect on key theological points in the gospel. You should probably pray these prayers too, to soften that old, callous heart of yours.
I am an Evangelical Christian who truly agrees with this message! What a great testimony to our faith in Christ! Faith in Jesus is what saves us forever! What a great message!! 👍👍🤓🤓😄😄
Seriously... I'm crying hear the message.. thanks father.. thanks Jesus,. We no need to scare.. as long as we hold Jesus we Will save. Keep reading Psalm 91
Jesus we know that we don’t deserve walking with you but we also know that you will never abandon us. Lord Jesus have Mercy on us we are the sinners 🙏🏻
Best homily I've ever heard! And what a meaningful analogy this story brings! We must not have fear, instead have hope in Christ and the sacrifice He made for us!
Beautiful homily Father, Thank you. Love & Peace to all our brothers and sisters in the world this day! May the blessings of our Divine Saviour Jesus Christ free us from fear and despair! God Bless! 👏🙏🏽👏🇨🇦
Believe me my grandma, my mom were once catholic... In the bible we read TEST EVERY SPIRIT, DO NOT BELIEVE EVERY GOOD WORDS TEST THEM IF THEY ARE COINCIDED BIBLLICALLY
If that's the case then you'd better stop attending sunday service and start attending Sabbath, otherwise you'll continue in sin that you thought you left behind!
Lord Jesus inspire of all my weaknesses I love you Jesus. Give me Grace and Strenth to Obey you. I am sorry my SINS. I repent of my Sins forgive me O Lord. Have mercy on us and the whole world. Save and Heal us from CORONA Viruses and other Contagious diseases . I ask in your mighty name Jesus.
We do tell it to those kids Randy. And we tell it to the children abused by their fathers, mothers, uncles, teachers, politicians, lawyers, doctors, businessmen, councilors, and all other people who abuse children. Abuse is abuse and we do not stand for it nor do I think any of the other occupations where it has taken place stands for it, so maybe you should take it up with all them also since you seem so concerned. Jesus is the ONLY one who heals all those abused. May God bless you and hold you Randy.
Randy Couch Actually, The Catholic Church was persecuted in the early part of this country. Since most of the immigrants were Protestant coming from Europe. And Sue is correct in saying that the Catholics ministered to Native Americans and helped them. Please read some actual history on these subjects if you are to comment instead of speculating the false narratives that media drive. Also I would suggest you read the history of Our Lady of Guadalupe and how over 10 million Mexican people converted over a span of 10 years from a life of worship of pagan gods which included thousand being murdered through human sacrifice to the false gods. Also ask yourself a question, who and what do you worship? Everyone worships something. Atheists mostly worship themselves and again I would ask, what do you get from that? Where is the fulfillment you long for? You will never find it in yourself or anything on earth cause you were created for God and friendship with Him. “My heart is restless till it rests in you Oh God” - St. Augustine. Peace be with you my friend
Randy Couch yes all can be saved and God gives Grace to all and a chance to be saved whether that’s at the end of your life when you die or during your life. I think that your idea is who God is is not correct. You like most people and even me at times see God as this old man judging and weighting our rights and wrongs and did we get it right or now and pick the right religion. That’s not at all the God of the Catholic Church. He is Love and a merciful Father more than a judge. Please watch one of Bishop Barrons videos on who God is. He explains much better than I ever could. Also stop trying to argue things about what Catholics did in the past. Yes they have made many errors, yes they had to kill to protect themselves and others. I don’t care. I don’t worship or follow people, I worship Jesus Christ and His Church he gave us which is flawed because it’s full of sinners like me who need saving. Open your heart to the truth and you will find peace. May God be with you
Very powerful when the priest says " Christians are called to live a different life then the rest of the world". Yes faith in God's love and mercy. Let us all be witnesses in this time of panic for some.
B D Amen! Preach! People need to know that no matter what, if you are in a crack house or no house, cheated on your spouse, fear of what is happening, you can pray. God doesn’t care who you are, if you are afraid or have relatives with the virus, you can lay your worries on God. He loves you, and cares about us, his children. Ask for peace of mind, to be forgiven of your faults and sins, in the name of his son Jesus, and he will begin to bless you. Start listening to EWTN, Old Billy Graham or Oral Roberts or TBN. Fathers and mothers, I know you are worried about finances, the future. Put your faith in God and ask for help to get your family through this. Sing the songs you learned in church, or play them on the piano. I love you all, and with God’s help we will get through this. If you need prayer. Catholics pray the Rosary, but there are good prayers at World Vision site, and you can google prayer. Fathers, now that this virus has brought your precious family together, pray the Lord’s Prayer as a family. You and your wife can pray before you sleep. It is guaranteed to bring you closer together.
Flora Stewart hi I won’t go into my story but I really need some prayers right now my faith is being tested to the last I’m still hanging in there but I know if two or more pray it will help thank u 🙏
In these times of Crisis, there's only one thing we can do.....look deeply in your heart and put your hands together.... add some soap and wash very very well
I am praying for our for the world. I live in England am a Muslim. This does not dominate rich or poor, black or white, it does care about what religion you are or how old. All we can do is pray for one another.
Awesome story, well correlated with the death of Jesus Christ . His precious blood was shed for the whole world, let us claim the precious blood for the healing of the affected nations with Corona virus. Only Jesus can save the world. Amen.
We believe as Jesus said "she's not dead but sleeping" Jesus is the life that we need, that we hope for, that we share, that we preach. Viva Cristo Rey
Jesus Cristo estaba un Rey falso... You don't get to advertise all the good that your religion does without first scrupulously subtracting all the harm it does and considering seriously the question of whether some other religion, or no religion at all, does better. Daniel Dennett
@@ThePassiveObserver I agree that the members of the church that God instituted (catholic) have done alot of unforgivable acts for which I in union with the church apologize to everyone who reads this. We must never be silent as Catholics to the fact that Jesus is Lord and king over all creation and that his kingdom though is not of this world it is seen in part through his saints, the men and woman who personify the teaching of our savior Mc 10,44 "he who wants to be first must be the servant of all". God bless you Roger and I'm sorry for what ever the church members that did not live this out in your eyes.
@@siervodeCristo777 Actually, the church, and anyone who supports it, are complicit in their crimes....Lorenzo de cristo, tu sabes la verdad. Es una casa del diablos.
Lord Jesus, help us to keep our eyes fixed on You and to trust in You more and more as this virus spreads around the world. Thank You Jesus for dieing on the cross for all humanity. 🙏👼
Yes our world is living right now with fear, but if we believe the Son of God gives us Eternal Life. Follow Him, then you die in Him and have nothing to Fear. Call on Him always, not just when there is a calamity, deceases, floods or drought etc. in and through Jesus dieting on the cross you are saved through His precious blood. Wake up people, Heaven to live with Him Eternally, Hell is too late, everlasting fire. Choose Him it’s not too late, believe & confess He is Lord. Praying for all those affected with the 🦠 also and the families of those who have lost loved ones. Prayers are powerful, each and everyday as part of a Christian life but for those who don’t, do it is a blessing to belong and know God is watching over His people each and everyday. Repent & Believe🙏🏾
Thank you Fr. John. That was exactly the message our world needs to hear. And I pray we Chistians are the face of Jesus in the face of not just this coronavirus but all diseases and troubles the world offers. Jesus offers so much more; and we need to make sure everyone knows that. God Bless my brother!
When we really are Christians this message should be as common as our daily bread, but unfortunately it isn't. The way Father Meyer gives it to us it causes the spiritual goosebumps and we all need that! Thank you, Father Jonathan! Greetings from Canada! I am originally from Poland, and the Church there cooperates with our Government in organizing spiritual chain of prayer everywhere as the true protection!
@FaithHopeGraceLuke 18: 9-14 The Pharisee says, "I thank you God that I'm not like other ppl over there" ------------ You sound like a self-righteous Pharisee obsessed by your own virtue! Peace!
@George Nolan But I thought you knew better this subject... "Vampires are born, not made. It is a genetic disorder, and is very rare. It is impossible to be born a vampire, unless at least one parent is a vampire, though half vampires are very rare. However, there is almost a 100% chance that the child of two vampires will become a vampire as well." --- That's why the previous response --- "It takes one to know one"
@George Nolan Research not needed, sir...got it! Yeah...Great... Hmm...Once upon a time there was...a Catholic, who became a flawed 'catholic' by losing the gift of charity & ceased to be a member of the Church... Maybe you didn't hear about God a lot in the versions of your fairy tales...and not starting out your life a Hero...sadly, later betrayed the key teachings & values of the Faith. ? Not real big on suffering...? Making our way to our destination, all of us, from the atheist to the saint, are just pilgrims. We're travelers going from this world to the next. We sometimes get lost & take the long way, some days we may have no idea where were going. But the point is to keep moving, learning to understand, and to keep trying, knowing that the Lord never gives up on us. Blessings!
Thank you Fr Meyers for the powerful story. Our lives are in the hand of God. Nothing to be fear but just lean on His mercy love. God bless you and us. 📿
@Satanic Hugs the only that I can do is pray for you. Saint Michel Archange. Défendez-nous dans le combat, soyez notre protecteur contre les méchanceté et les embûches du démon. Que Dieu lui commande, nous vous en supplions; et vous, prince de la milice céleste, par le pouvoir divin qui vous a été confié; precipitez au fond des enfers Satan et les autres esprits mauvais qui parcourent le monde pour la perte des âmes. Amen.
That was the best sermon I have ever heard. As a father myself, it was so upsetting but powerful. The thought of losing one of my children is gut wrenching. Most interesting was how people responded to the sacrifice of the son was a brilliant simile about the death of our Lord.
Thank you Father! So well spoken! I believe that God will protect us! He has the power to cure people & stop ths virus! Everyone must stay strong in their faith & trust Him. This may be a sign that He is wanting us closer to Him & each other. God bless! 🙏
Very enlightening at this very time, I am so grateful to you for reminding us that Jesus is with us no matterwhat. that he will protect us. Praise God Almighty!
I listened to this moving homily from the UK. If only the non believers would tune in and listened to what this priest has to say, their lives would be fuller and happier. Thank you father for a beautiful story
Thank you for listening, Jackie! Peace
This is how God gave us his only son................... cant stop crying
I grew up Catholic. I was starting to get bored of the religion. Most sermons I found were boring and felt I never received the word BUT this sermon was amazing!!!!! I feel it woke me up. GOD IS AMAZING!!!!!!! I will continue to live in his light. Amen!
Now this is what is called living your faith and not just recite words of prayer out of tradition, AMEN.
Thank you father Meyer. Thank you Father son Holy Spirit for your Love peace and Mercy Help us to comfort those in fear and those. Who cause the fear and panic .Forgive us Lord Thank you Jesus for dying. For us Amen
Thank You Fr. Meyer for your beautiful sermon,and thank you Jesus for your amazing sacrifice and the reminder of what this time is all about.
This is the best sermon I have ever heard! Thank you Father. May God have mercy on all of us!
Thank you Father, even for a while you took away our fear and reinforced our faith. I am praying for the world that people will turn back to our Lord and Savior
Lord please save us from Corona virus
Yes Our God is good
Please Father encourage everyone in your parish go to daily mass for us because we cannot go to mass, even on Sundays. I am from Manila, Philippines and we are not allowed to go out. I think Singapore and other SE Asian countries also do not have masses.
Initially I thought, "Saddest Lent ever!" then I realized we are with our Lord in the desert. The Lord is making us hungrier for Him by allowing us not to receive Him. And so I began to be happy again. That said, please do everything you can for us.
"Whether we live or die we are the Lord's" By the blood of Jesus we are saved. Thank you Fr. Jonathan Meyer.
Amen Father! it made my eyes water.
I will still be joyfull and glad, because the LORD GOD is my SAVIOUR. 🙏🙏🙏
Our Faith in the Living God will protect us from every sickness and every disease. Trust in the Power of God.
How can you say that? Faith can help one “handle” the sickness and most of the time one will recover: however there will be a time when one succumbs to the sickness/disease and die and hopefully rise into eternal glory depending on how one has loved God and loved their neighbor. That’s the purpose of life, it’s relatively simple, yet chaotic at the same time depending on one’s situation to be born into. Peace and Health
Thank you father for the beautiful sermon it really touched my heart God is great
Wow! What a powerful story...Thank you Father.
Lord Forgive my sins , I put my life in and the life of all my family in your Hands . You will give us salvation and eternal life not because of our merits but because of your love and mercy , Virgin Mary cover us with your light and motherly love . Lord Jesus I put my trust in you .
We the faithful are not afraid but our Pope and Bishops show no faith by stopping our mass.
I agree...those that are in fear have no faith in God. Jesus I trust in you. Ask God to forgive them for canceling Mass and not allowing us to receive the Eucharist.
So beautiful! Thank you so much Fr. Meyer! Praise our Savior!
Yes! We are as Christians are called to live differently. We have to take our Cross, and carry it. It is NOT easy being a fo!lower of Jesus, so many temptations and evils along the way, but, HE did say HE would not leave us, and will always be with us. Thank You Fr.

Father thanks for the homily to remind us that we should always trust God in all situations in life. Promised Isaiah 43:1-5 never to live us. As believers we must encourage other no to live in fear because it's a sign of doubt in God who is promise keeper. Bless you father
I am proud to say that I have been saved through faith in Christ and not through works. Ephesians 2:8-10 says, “For it is by Grace that you have been saved, THROUGH FAITH- and this is not from yourselves, IT IS A GIFT FROM GOD- not by works, so that no one can boast.

Jesus said, you are mine... and belong to Him... Amen!
that's right prayer by God stripes we are healed
We need to recognize the humanity of people around the world. This is this generation’s first pandemic. I thank God for my parents and grandmother, who taught us canning, making do with the basics: flour, rice, baking soda, oil, dry beans, canned juice and powdered milk. Dried eggs, pasta, ramen, dried fruits and vegetables, nuts. Used to get K rations and jerky from the surplus store. More than all that, the Living Word of God. As long as we all pray for each other every night, we will be okay. Nineveh repented, so can us. Love is the greatest commandment.
Amen! Thanks 🙏 Father God Bless you. Thanks 🙏 for Jesus Christ Lord.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏God.✝️

We believe as Jesus said "she's not dead but sleeping" Jesus is the life that we need, that we hope for, that we share, that we preach. Viva Cristo Rey
Viva Cristo Rey.
Jesus Cristo estaba un Rey falso...
You don't get to advertise all the good that your religion does without first scrupulously subtracting all the harm it does and considering seriously the question of whether some other religion, or no religion at all, does better.
Daniel Dennett
@@ThePassiveObserver I agree that the members of the church that God instituted (catholic) have done alot of unforgivable acts for which I in union with the church apologize to everyone who reads this. We must never be silent as Catholics to the fact that Jesus is Lord and king over all creation and that his kingdom though is not of this world it is seen in part through his saints, the men and woman who personify the teaching of our savior Mc 10,44 "he who wants to be first must be the servant of all". God bless you Roger and I'm sorry for what ever the church members that did not live this out in your eyes.
@@siervodeCristo777 lo siento, per no puedo crear una fantasia como eso...
@@siervodeCristo777 Actually, the church, and anyone who supports it, are complicit in their crimes....Lorenzo de cristo, tu sabes la verdad. Es una casa del diablos.
Another wonderful sermon Father, Jesus will never abandon us. Jesus I trust in you
Thank you Father for giving us your Son. Alleluia xxxx
Beautiful story, thank you may God bless you made me realize that I am a sinner and every second of my life belongs to Jesus

Amen! 'He who believes in me, Never Dies' Jesus.+
@George Nolan Do you have the virus Georgie, or you need me to cough on you?
@George Nolan have a nice trip to hell, i hear its coffin HOT!
JESUS IS PUNISHING US FOR OUR REBELLION AGAINST HIM.
HE WILL SHOW NO MERCY. WE ARE FUCKED BIG TIME.
Choose your teachers VERY carefully.
@George Nolan and you believe you possess commone sense?LOLOLOLOL
Lord Jesus, help us to keep our eyes fixed on You and to trust in You more and more as this virus spreads around the world. Thank You Jesus for dieing on the cross for all humanity. 🙏👼
Praise be Jesus Christ! ALWAYS TRUST IN JESUS!
Amen, Holy Eucharist is my weapon against coronavirus.
Tess Chavit Just make sure the person giving it to you is not infected.
Powerful sermon.Thank you father!
Thank you dear father!!! Beautiful!!
Praise God. 🙏
By Love of God we live here ➕ and there
Yes our world is living right now with fear, but if we believe the Son of God gives us Eternal Life. Follow Him, then you die in Him and have nothing to Fear. Call on Him always, not just when there is a calamity, deceases, floods or drought etc. in and through Jesus dieting on the cross you are saved through His precious blood. Wake up people, Heaven to live with Him Eternally, Hell is too late, everlasting fire. Choose Him it’s not too late, believe & confess He is Lord. Praying for all those affected with the 🦠 also and the families of those who have lost loved ones. Prayers are powerful, each and everyday as part of a Christian life but for those who don’t, do it is a blessing to belong and know God is watching over His people each and everyday. Repent & Believe🙏🏾
Thank God the story took the turn that it did. Still, however, I’m in tears. Lord have mercy...
Laudetur Jesus Christus! Great sermon! Stay faithful folks
Thank you Fr. John. That was exactly the message our world needs to hear. And I pray we Chistians are the face of Jesus in the face of not just this coronavirus but all diseases and troubles the world offers. Jesus offers so much more; and we need to make sure everyone knows that. God Bless my brother!
Beautiful message. God bless you Fr. Jonathan.
My Jesus cover us w/ur precious blood, hide us in ur Sacred ❤️ be our refuge 🙏
When we really are Christians this message should be as common as our daily bread, but unfortunately it isn't. The way Father Meyer gives it to us it causes the spiritual goosebumps and we all need that! Thank you, Father Jonathan! Greetings from Canada! I am originally from Poland, and the Church there cooperates with our Government in organizing spiritual chain of prayer everywhere as the true protection!
This is a time for religion and science to unite their resources.
Father this was such a beautiful homily, thank you I needed to hear this your right be not afraid!
I believe that this is The Holy Spirit of God speaking. Through the voice box of this holy priest. AMEN.
GM Fr.Jonathan ,Amazing illustration of my LORD and SAVIOR. Let's apply our faithfulness, love ,kindness to all .Anen
Thanks fr .great ❤🙏
'He who eat my flesh and drink my blood will have eternal life'
@George Nolan it takes one to know one...
@FaithHopeGraceLuke 18: 9-14 The Pharisee says, "I thank you God that I'm not like other ppl over there" ------------
You sound like a self-righteous Pharisee obsessed by your own virtue!
Peace!
@George Nolan
But I thought you knew better this subject...
"Vampires are born, not made. It is a genetic disorder, and is very rare. It is impossible to be born a vampire, unless at least one parent is a vampire, though half vampires are very rare. However, there is almost a 100% chance that the child of two vampires will become a vampire as well." ---
That's why the previous response ---
"It takes one to know one"
@George Nolan
Research not needed, sir...got it! Yeah...Great...
Hmm...Once upon a time there was...a Catholic, who became a flawed 'catholic' by losing the gift of charity & ceased to be a member of the Church...
Maybe you didn't hear about God a lot in the versions of your fairy tales...and not starting out your life a Hero...sadly, later betrayed the key teachings & values of the Faith.
? Not real big on suffering...?
Making our way to our destination, all of us, from the atheist to the saint, are just pilgrims. We're travelers going from this world to the next. We sometimes get lost & take the long way, some days we may have no idea where were going. But the point is to keep moving, learning to understand, and to keep trying, knowing that the Lord never gives up on us.
Blessings!
George Nolan lol you need help. God bless you!
Thank you Fr Meyers for the powerful story. Our lives are in the hand of God. Nothing to be fear but just lean on His mercy love. God bless you and us. 📿
@Satanic Hugs the only that I can do is pray for you.
Saint Michel Archange.
Défendez-nous dans le combat, soyez notre protecteur contre les méchanceté et les embûches du démon.
Que Dieu lui commande, nous vous en supplions; et vous, prince de la milice céleste, par le pouvoir divin qui vous a été confié; precipitez au fond des enfers Satan et les autres esprits mauvais qui parcourent le monde pour la perte des âmes. Amen.
That was the best sermon I have ever heard. As a father myself, it was so upsetting but powerful. The thought of losing one of my children is gut wrenching. Most interesting was how people responded to the sacrifice of the son was a brilliant simile about the death of our Lord.
wizardwithguns literally like EVER! 😭 this book is incredible!
Be not afraid. Such an important message right now, when even our churches are banning communion or closing their doors altogether.
Pope Francis' response was unusually swift and blunt.
"Drastic measures are not always good,"
@@roisinkelly1509 But this time they are.
Thank you Father! So well spoken! I believe that God will protect us! He has the power to cure people & stop ths virus! Everyone must stay strong in their faith & trust Him. This may be a sign that He is wanting us closer to Him & each other. God bless! 🙏
This sermon hit different now that I am a father. It's extremely deep!!!
Very enlightening at this very time, I am so grateful to you for reminding us that Jesus is with us no matterwhat. that he will protect us. Praise God Almighty!
Thank you Jesus..I Love you ❤
Jesus Mary Joseph, I love You save souls
This story gives me goosebumps... like legit! I have goosebumps over and over again! 😭
