🙏 See below for the Act of Spiritual Communion:
My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

So I'm a person with a disability, I'm a C2 C3 vented quadriplegic, so totally paralyzed from the neck down, I am connected to a ventilator full-time because I can't even breathe by myself, and I often think of the time I will get my body back. Ideally I'd like to get my body back before going to heaven, but I'll take what I can get. Thanks again father Mike
God bless your life with peace and love and healing.
You sound like a really strong and wise person. Wishing you peace as you await that glorious day!
God Bless you😇. And we know all good things work together for good for those who love God and those who are called according to his purpose. In Jesus Christ name Amen ❤
I will offer my rosary and the Mass for you. God bless you
God will restore our body for eternal life not as it is now, but sharing in his grace and divinity… may your restored body in heaven be as strong as your soul and God allows. May the peace of our Lord be upon you brother ❤️
Being bedbound at 26, when 3 years ago I was extremely healthy, I have battled everyday of feeling like my existence is worthless. I can’t move, I can’t walk, I can’t interact with others, I won’t be able to live the life I thought I would. Your homilies help me in ways I can’t explain. They give me the strength to push through and trust in God. And to remember this is not my home. Thank you Father Mike🙏
Take heart. You are seen and loved by God and perhaps your purpose is to be a suffering servant; this has great redemptive power. Prayers for you 🙏 ❤️
Praying for you.
Prayers
Bedbound at 26 , no one can understand that like you; I can only imagine your struggles . I cared for my mother with ALS . I pray you are surrounded by loving help; Fr Mike's videos have created this online community of which you are part and I hope you come here often.😊❤ May God continue to fill you with the strength to remember that Heaven is our true home. Much love ❤❤❤
As a Sinner who is trying to repent, I thank God that he speaks through you to me. In a Spirtual battle but closer to God than ever.
Jesus give me strength. I KNOW YOU CAN CHANGE MY LIFE. As a single mom and it is hard to have everything on my shoulders. Especially because both of my sons are special needs but despite the challenges I face. I keep faith in Jesus even as I struggle to pay rent and as I struggle to buy groceries for my children. Faith over fear. I love you Lord. I have faith you will provide.❤️
From the wife of a man whose single mother was his world- you matter more to them than any worldly possession. God will provide. His will shall be done. Hand your “backpack” of burden over to The Almighty. Allow him to hold you in his hands as you hold your own children. I pray our heavenly mother brings you special peace and comfort today.
Thirty two years ago, my husband’s mother, his only surviving parent- passed away. It is unknown if she knew her time was coming or just knew she needed to- she sent her then fifteen year old son on a months long trip of Europe. He spoke to her and boarded a plane early because he was ready to come home. She died while he was on that plane. She had suffered the sudden death of her husband, not being able to amend their fight and say how much she loved him as she had to drive behind the ambulance that early morning. Despite the thirteen years of agony which made up the rest of her life and led her to alcoholism with drunken rage - she was my husband’s best friend. I have always felt she sent him away on purpose.
Today, and every August 15- I turn to Mary and celebrate her assumption. I ask her to say her very special prayers for my mother in law. Mother Mary, pray for and intercede for your daughter Carol Ann, whom God took on this holy celebration of your assumption. Pray for her sins to be forgiven and her heart to be comforted. May she be freed from her burden so that a family may be reunited in Heaven.
Mama Mary thank you for your intercession. I want to live for heaven all the days of my life.
Thank you so much Fr. Mike for such a Beautiful Homily and Reminder. May God Bless you always. 🙏🏻
I offer this Mass up for all my deceased relatives and friends. Lord have Mercy on their souls Amen 🙏
Amazing Homily. You are the best. Thankyou. May God bless you abundantly. 🙏
I mostly love life, but sometimes my heart aches deeply that I’ve reached midlife single and childless. This message from Fr. Mike is a great reminder to find ways to love and serve no matter our circumstances as we keep our gaze on Heaven, that the things of this world are passing away. Thank you, Father!
Father Mike, I needed to hear this so bad today. I'm in one of those seasons, I don't see a future that isn't just so bleak and reminding me of The Blessed Virgin's assumption gave me that little bit of hope I needed to get through it
What a great message. We must also be like Mother Mary and accept God's plan for us and grace for us. We must also remember to live for the life after our death. We mustn't lose hope despite hardships and continue to be strong, like Mother Mary during her pregnancy and then as Jesus was growing up then eventually crucified. Thank you, Fr. Mike, the Pew Crew and Team Ascension. God bless you and the fellow attendees
Father Mike, thank you so much for this mass. I wad planning on attending this mass at my church today, but my truck had to go into the shop for repairs. So I was unable to go. Was so disappointed. So thankful for this.❤
Who else loves Father’s Marian vestments? Thanks, Fr. Mike, for this great message!
Yeah, father Mike's messages have saved me a few times
His vestments look stunning!
Dear Father in Heaven be among us when we gather to pray. AMEN.
Thank you for making this, for people who cannot attend mass physically. From Hong Kong
Prayers
This homily truly made me think deeply about what Father Mike spoke.. I never thought about The Assumption of Our Lady this way. Father I am so grateful for your words. You have changed my spiritual life .. God Bless you✝️🙏🏻🌹
Thank you so much Fr. Mike for the beautiful and meaningful homily! May mumma Mary bless you in abundance....
I offer this mass for my husband I lost two years ago and the conversion of my children and grandchildren and all of our souls thank Father mike.gods peace be with all of you 🙏
I am looking forward to the wonderful Holy Mass.
Me too!!
I can understand why God wanted Mama beside Him!❤
She's Wonderful!!!❤
Thank you for (once again) stirring me from my spiritual coma, Fr Schmitz. God be with you.
I’m sick with COVID today and sadly could not attend Mass today but I was blessed to listen to Fr. Mike Schmitz give Mass and receive Jesus through spiritual communion. God bless Fr. Mike and his work leading souls to Christ!
I hope you feel better soon, may God bless you.
Thank you Father Mike this mass is helpful to allow Jesus to come into your heart I am grateful and humbled by this mass.
My friend Bob Veillette had a brain stem stroke and couldn’t move or walk, communicating through blinking. He suffered like this for nearly 10 years. He told me once that he had grown “wiser” because of this experience. I still puzzle over what this man, a runner and Shakespeare enthusiast, knew that we do not. God bless you and console you through your illness. May He bring you serenity and healing.❤
Did anyone else cry 🥹 thank you fr. Mike ❤ your words are a huge comfort for me right now. May God bless you today and always ❤❤❤❤ Thank you
Good Morning, Fr Mike and Front Pew Crew. Thank you for Mass on this feast of The Assumption of Mary. May God bless you all. Claire.
Thank you Father Mike, beautifully said……..love this feast day….God Bless.
Wow….one of the best homilies I’ve ever heard
Pray for us Holy Mother of God that we may be worthy of the promises of God.
Thank you Father Mike and co. I had a packed work day and could find no masses near me that I was able to attend. Very glad I could still virtually attend our Holy Day mass! ✌️
Thank you Fr Mike. May God bless you forever.
Another great homily Father Mike! So very inspiring and full of hope that someday we will be with Mary Our Mother and Jesus her son. Lord, help us to live for that.
Mary is waiting for us to join her in heaven.
Thank you Father Mike. Beautifully said.
Live for heaven. Thanks, Father Mike.
Thank you Father a shut in that otherwise would have missed mass. Much Love to you and your flock.

I'm looking forward to the Homily explanation by Fr. MIKE. He simplifies and help me understand .

Such a beautiful homily!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you Father Mike Schmitz, God bless you Father
Thank you Lord and praise you almighty for all your blessings and protection for all my families and friends

Praying our Lord hears our prayers. Prayerfully asking our Lord to reunite this family.
Prayers for all my family members and friends ❤
Thanks!
Forever my hope is fulfilled in knowing that Mary is in Heaven and since she was human and I am human it means there is Hope for all of us to achieve Heaven through the intercession of the body and blood of Jesus.
wonderful Homily. God bless you
I’m fortunate to have a birthday on this blessed solemnity. God bless all of you.
Happy birthday
On this Feast of the Assumption please end abortion. Sending special prayers for Governor Maura Healey's conversion and the pregnancy resource centers in Massachusetts.❤❤❤
Do you live in Boston? There’s a beautiful painting of the Assumption at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts that shows the corpse (or deep slumber according to Eastern Christianity) of an aged Mary and then a young, even childlike Mary being lifted up by the hand of the Divine. I wish I could remember more about this painting to tell everyone. It gave me such deep comfort when my dad was dying. If you go to the Museum, it’s in the great red hall of portraiture (permanent exhibition).
Amen to that.
Thanks. Prayers and blessings
Thank you Father Mike to live for Heaven. Thank 😇 you for reminding you that our Blessed Mother is always there to pray for us. ❤😊

I'm contemplating Mary's assumption a day late. It was yesterday, I know. When I think about THE Mother, I'm glad that MY Mother and MY Grandmothers are in Heaven, with Mary. Thanks, Father Mike and Front Pew Crew.

Thank you, Blessed Mother, for accepting God’s call to be Jesus’s Mother. "DEDICATION TO MARY, MOTHER OF GOD - O Mary, Mother of God and our Mother, we offer ourselves to your loving care. We choose you as our Mother, Guide and Friend. May we always be faithful to you, and desire, say and do only what is pleasing to you. O most tender and loving Mother, we beg you through the goodness of our Lord Jesus Christ, your Divine Son, to keep us especially dear to you and to obtain for us the strength to lead a holy life, a life of goodness, purity and love, offered to God in thanksgiving and praise. Be present with us at all times, O Blessed Virgin Mary, and especially at the hour of our death. Amen.”

Dear Father Mike, Bless you on this Feast Day. it would be good to be able to receive live Masses such as this on other days too.
Amen and Amen ❤
Amen
Father Mike makes an excellent reference to John Paul's encyclical about the theology of the body.
19:45 This is for you, momma. I love you.
Good morning
❤️
Imagine body and soul forever tormented in hell… let it sink in and… just do gods will… he knows best. ❤️
Father Mike, I don’t know if you personally see these comments, but I have a genuine question: I don’t really understand what it means to “rely on God”, “cooperate with grace”, “allow God to work in us.” I hear these things all the time, but what does this actually involve in, say, overcoming habitual sin, or gaining consistency in the practice of virtue? What does one actually DO? What acts of the will does this involve?
Dear mother Mary,Please hear my cry for help for I have Chronic pain . I suffer other ailments please give me some relief pray to you.I
Ok
I don't know.....
Let's think about this for a second...
Why are there so many passages about bringing Heaven to earth if we're supposed to be doing pretty much nothing but paying attention to our after-life?
Ephisians 1:10
"God's perfect plan is to “bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ”"
Even-Steven Christ.
Hmm. Doesn’t this kinda make you wonder?
It makes me wonder, wonder what in the heck we've been getting taught.
So, let's take what we know and re-frame the situation. We know consciousness exists in all living things. We know consciousness is the soul itself. We know the soul itself is able to interconnect and communicate with all other consciousness. We know the spirit of the soul is either good, bad, indifferent, evil, holy, and/or otherwise dispositioned according to the will of the living entity.
So, if consciousness is a soul and all living things are conscious, why the heck would we claim that a living thing outside a human being doesn't have a soul? That doesn't make any friggin' sense. Like none.
For Heaven to be brought to earth under one head, even Christ. It must be evenly yoked; equivalent in consciousness.
For example, if a person is unaware of something, let's say something like they're unaware of the wavelength they're on, then, too, they are unaware of the external and internal influences that direct them in their daily lives. Now, how can that person bring Heaven to earth if they haven't a flipping clue what wavelength Heaven is even on? They can accidently and/or synchronistically, accidently bring glimpses of Heaven, sure, but they wouldn't be able to bring a consistent, purposeful streaming service...cause they're in a state of complete ignorance! How does that help anyone long- term?
I'm just saying, if God's perfect plan is to bring Heaven to earth and all we're thinking about is rejoining our deplapetated zombie bodies at the end of time....well, someone's falling short of the ultimate goal and it probably ain't God.
P.S.
El is a bull deity, not the Father of Christ.
Mary was the human vessel who brought the Jesus- elevation to Humanity! Created in paradise with God's DNA,we might still have a record of our perfect genomes in our DNA, somewhere. We were born on earth, not ETs. What God shows us is His society of goodwill and saints is eternal life, where Melkiesideck came from. In Genesis Melkiesidec is there, our roots, in the book of our beginnings .In God's society there's no devil there! We have had to overcome the wrong direction for a life. Isn't that why we have to be sanctified? Made sacred again after the tricks of the devil! Every new soul has to do this over and over ...find Jesus,the only one born in holiness, a true Son of God and a human example of that sinless society! Each person of the Trinity is unadulterated, perfect, sinless, no original sin, perfect!
Lopez George Robinson Dorothy Johnson Jessica
another Vatican myth; for whenever Divine Energy decides to take on a human form as the Avatar, as God often does, everything the God-man does He does naturally. Mary was His natural mother and died nayturally. Mary Magdelene was His twin=soul and is always by His side as a pure soul.
No.
Female servers and readers at a MASS?!!!!
No. May Christ have mercy on you.
Go woke till your broke
🙏🏾♥️🇮🇱
Thank you for such a wonderful Homily. Thank you for the reminder, Fr Mike, that heaven is our final home.
