I am 71, grew up with my life totally surrounded by the Holy Catholic Church, so blessed to be among holy nuns and priests, sang in the choir for a few years completely in Latin and later in English. In short, the holy Catholic Church has always been the Centre of my life. However, in all honesty I can say that I have NEVER EVER EVER witnessed a Priest addressing the people with such fire and passion as Fr. Frankie Cicero. That burning love for our Lord is so sadly missing in our clergy today. I pray for more laborers into Gods holy vineyard who will pour out the beautiful love of our Lord Jesus and help to lead His sheep home. Thank you Fr. Frankie for your beautiful and heartwarming homily.
Good message but I guess it depends...some of us prefer the old way because sometimes it feels like we are emulating the Protestant way of preaching. The walking around, gesture, voice and all.. May God bless you and guide you Fr. as you follow on the footsteps of the founding Early Church Fathers. Lord God have mercy on us all. Amen
I too am 71 and up until I saw this video (attached) several months ago I didn’t really understand what the mass was about. This is complementary to Fr. Frankie’s video. th-cam.com/video/2-WVVYHbQvw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_peE8mkEscGtk7Bv
@@jthecatholic8419it shouldn’t bother you. It’s just more personal. We can learn always to improve. The Eucharist is only present in His Holy Catholic church. Never leave it!!!
Thank you, Fr. Frankie! Your story is my story as well! I was date raped at 19 as a virgin, became pregnant, out of shame and heartbreak and many friends who were advising me in what they thought was the best option for me, I had an abortion. It was a hard decision, but it was easy and I didn't feel a thing. Until it was over. For the next 12 years, I left the Church. I left because in my mind, even though it was rape, I had premarital sex. And, then, I killed my baby! How could I claim to be Catholic anymore. So, I personally excommunicated myself from His Church! I was so ashamed, so lost, in so much pain. So, all through my 20's I lived it all, I fell so far from God and His Church, I was worthless!!!!! So, I drank, I was promiscuous, I was usually in bed, hung over on Sunday mornings! I was successful in my career. I lied to my parents about what happened. But, the only thing I did hold on too from my Faith, or rather She held on to me, was I said the rosary every single time I was so far down, I even contemplated suicide! But, I would always go to Her first, My Mother Mary. She carried me, She held on to me! Slowly, very slowly I started going to Confession. I must have confessed these sins that led me away from the church, a dozen times or more over a 3 year period. After Confession, I'd attend Mass for a week or two, and then, I'd convince myself I was not worthy of participating in the Mass, especially receiving the Holy Euchartist!!!! Then, one day, a very wise and special priest told me, The Church has forgiven you!! God has forgiven you!!!! When are you going to forgive yourself and come back Home to stay. That, was what I needed to hear. I came back, and I came back strong! I volunteered in youth ministry at my Church, then I went back to school and studies Scripture and various other Theological subjects. Then, I left a very lucrative career and started working for the Church in a number of positions over the years as well as on a Diocesan level. I haven't worked for the Church for many years, but two of my very best friends are priests, I Lector, and I lead special projects and events at my Church. My real love and devotion is The Holy Euchartist. Due to health issues, I am unable to be at the National Euchartistic Revival Congress this week, but I'm have been praying for it and will be there in spirit! Thank you for sharing your story! Like I said, it had a lot of similarities to my own. God is truly AMAZING!!!!! To take someone like me, a Saul, to a certain degree, and at the right time, the right place, with the right people, all of which was Devinely orchestrated by The Almighty Himself, and turn us in to Paul, well, I don't no of any miracles in my life any more powerful!!!!! You are an amazing priest, Fr. Frankie! We are blessed to know, even if it's just through your videos! They make a difference! God bless!!!!! 💙🙏💙🙏💙🙏
Rachels vineyard is great for the pain you may be carrying I am sending you hugs across miles and hope you can find the peace of Christ daily sounds like you are doing much better sending much love and hugs to you please google rachels vineyard
I am going to recommend this video to a 28 year old Young man who has been where you were and pulled himself out. He is discerning the priesthood but fears his past may hamper his ability to be accepted in a seminary. Please pray for Joseph. 15:53
I pray you do because there is nothing else that is more important than being there to worship Jesus and receive Him Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. God Bless.
I visited the Blessed Sacrament and took a picture. Jesus appears with his open armas and blood in the left side in the Eucharist. When I take the Eucharist in my tongue I hear it broken in half. Jesus is alive
Amen, amen very heart felt testimony. You brought tears to my eyes, as to yours. I wish more Catholics believe in the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. The true Body Blood Soul and Divinity. The parish in which you serve is very blessed. When ever I encounter priests who are passionate and love Christ as you, i am moved to tears.
I missed this sermon 2 weeks ago, because I attended a different mass. What Fr Frankie spoke of, belief that the bread and wine is TRULY the body and blood of Jesus is what has recently changed my life! I’ve live my 70 years of life believing that the consecration was just a symbolic act. Fr Frankie and Jesus changed my thinking and now I BELIEVE! My whole life has been changed! I now want to constantly sing of the Goodness of God. Thank you God and his servant Fr Frankie.
Dear fr Frankie that was such an emotional homily……. As u found ur pearl JESUS CHRIST I’m sure our LORD JESUS has a found a pearl in u and has chosen you to be that priest which he so dearly treasures. God bless you……
My story was similar..Jesus is my love my life my everything❤My life is in His Holy hands🙏❤️✝️❤️ I m His completely❤❤❤❤❤❤my heart belongs to Jesus❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
May Jesus consume our heart with his flame of love as we receive him in in the Eucharist that we may love him with all our hearts, mind, body and strength. Amen
Amen, Father Frankie. Thank you for sharing your beautiful testimony. The Holy Spirit truly works through TH-cam's algorithms, because I needed to hear this in order to share it. May God continue to bless you, and Our Lady keep you.
I was totally consumed by Father Frankie and this homily.The young man sitting on the fence watching while Jesus and the devil seperated the goats and the sheep truly emphasized the meaning of the whole story. That is when the devil says to to the young man" Come on , lets go. you're mine." That sitting on the fence is actually a decision in itself. It prompts us to make that decision to go with Jesus. I have never heard it described in this manner before and I am totally enarmoured by it. I will watch many more of Father Frankie Cicero homilies and stories.
Thank you Fr for your heartfelt testimony. You remind me of myself, when I also went through that experience. The first time I went to confession after 20+ years, it was like a boulder had been lifted from my heart and I felt the bright light of God’s love and his mercy. It’s still a journey and struggle to live a faithful life, but I know with the grace of confession, we have the Lord’s mercy.

Thank for Father for,your beautiful testimony , so inspirational in wishing my son and family would listen to it. We keep inviting them to come back to the church, but nothing faces them as how important it is , I just continue to pray for them.❤
Thank-you Fr Frankie for this beautiful yet moving homily which just moved my heart,my faith too was also tested, having survived two surgeries, Jesus was always there for me,now i try my best to give back all the glory to God and in doing so now to pass on this experience to my son and daughter which one day i pray that they will give themselves to Jesus,God continue to bless you in your ministry Fr Frankie 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

Joseph, Go, go for it. Jesus loves you the way you are, because He still chose St. Peter, St. Paul and St. Augustine what have you done?
This is beautiful. I really need to go back to church regularly.
