Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary — Mass with Fr. Mike Schmitz

Join Fr. Mike Schmitz as he celebrates Sunday Mass at the University of Minnesota Duluth.

Finally, we also ask you to continue supporting your local parishes. Thank you and God bless you!

🙏 See below for the an 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.

Thanks be to God for Fr. Mike! When the bishops closed our churches, we had to turn to YouTube. Thank you God, for these amazing priests like Father Mike. And bless his sweet mother who is fighting cancer. I survived 30 years ago. Work a miracle so that she also does! Amen!

So grateful for these Masses. I've been going in person but every now and then, I need to watch online if I end up working 6 or 7 days a week. Since I don't have a car and take public transport, and work at a very busy Starbucks; I need to still ensure the safety of others. Many of the people in the parish I belong to are elderly. As a result, if I work 6 or 7 days and have been exposed to many groups of people, I'll attend Mass online as I don't want you be an unsuspecting carrier with the delta variant raging. So grateful for Father Mike and Ascension Presents

Powerful homily as always. Ascension, Assumption, Incarnation, Eucharist, Baptism, all the sacraments are connecting the Spirit and the body. We need to take better care of them.

Without knowing today was the Sunday of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, I was meditating over the 5 joyous mysteries while praying the rosary with my Mom last night. May the Blessed Virgin Mary be with us, protect us and hear our prayers, Amen

Father Mike, I am so grateful for your ministry. I find myself once again in quarantine after being exposed to the virus, and unable to attend Mass in person. I am so grateful that I can come here and participate in the Mass and hear a great homily. I also participate in your Bible in a year ministry, and am grateful for that, as well. Your joyful approach to the priesthood is such a blessing. Thank you.

[DF_UniatePapist]

Such a simple Mass, yet you celebrate it with such reverence. The Church needs more priests like you ❤️
