The Congregation of the Fathers of Mercy which was founded in 1808, originally under the title of “The Missionaries of France.” The community was founded for the purpose of re-evangelizing the people of France after the Catholic Faith had been subjected to years of attacks and persecution during the French Revolution. It is now exclusively an American community. The Generalate of the Congregation is located in Auburn, Kentucky. The primary apostolate of the Fathers of Mercy is to conduct parish missions and retreats throughout the United States and other countries when called upon. The congregation also staffs rural parishes in the Archdiocese of Louisville, Kentucky

The fact that Francis and most of the Hierarchy are clearly (as evidenced by their actions) following the World and not Our Lord Jesus Christ becomes more evident by the day. Thank you so much and God Bless You for being one of the FEW Good Shepherds who Our Lord and Blessed Mother sent to us for just these times🙏🙏🙏. The Truth is the Truth is the Truth……and Francis and the Hierarchy can NOT change Our Lord’s Truth. Their efforts to do so will ultimately fail….Our Lord and Our Blessed have already won the battle against Satan….Satan is running the World for a short time now….but, as the Saintly Archbishop Sheen said, Satan may have his hour but Our Lord has already won the battle!

    I'm one of those dirty protestants, but still appreciate this message. People love to ignore the "love God" commandment, and just focus on "loving your neighbor". Is it really loving your neighbor though if you saw their lifestyle was directing them on the path to eternal damnation? You saw the direction they were headed but didn't want to say anything because we've been trained to associate love with not hurting anyone's feeling.

    "Every human being is our neighbor." Some are just more important than others. The good priest is a comedian. God only speaks to those on the right. How touching to hear him during his subtle exclusion of the "others." If humankind could only return to the safety of the 50's. The joyful embracing of America and yesteryear. When Americans had the "help." Embracing the joy of Baltimore catechism. Everything was black or white. Perhaps he could write a Gospel of the John Birch society?

    Praise be to God for inspiring you such powerful homilies, Father Wilton. I beg to disagree on one point, though. No, you don't pray to win one Muslim to Christ. You just humbly pray that folks practice their own religion to the hilt, like we should ours. Because no faith calls on the brethren to kill or demean one's neighbor, one's brother. Devout Muslims, like devout Christians or devout Buddhists, are the most harmless of people. My gratitude for your blessed sermons, Fr. Wilton.

    They, like I, have lost faith, NOT in Jesus but in the very institution that professes to teach us his word. The gospel should reflect our day to day lives. Jesus's words lifted us and enthralled us to something beyond our compression and to aspire to be the best person we could be with no prejudice or self-righteousnes. The Catholic Church has lost it's members because of self important Clergy who lack the ability to reach it's members. There are some, but unfortunately not many. I never have a sense of being welcome when I enter a Catholic Church just a sense of being guilty you were ever born. I don't ever think that was Jesus's intention.

The Catholic newspapers have been stopped even the atheist papers are on sale in the local shops.

    I'm really disappointed Fr David Wilton doesn't say anything about loving God in a woke culture, as the title of this video suggests. In his sermon, Fr Wilton says many things without justifying them, many things that I find extraordinarily tenouous. He mentions the word 'woke' only once. This is what he says: "And then there's this overwhelming fear caused by the woke society we live in. People are scared to death to be speaking about what God really expects of us, people are scared to death to speak the truth because of the consequences that they will suffer if they speak the truth about God because, you see, they might be labeled as someone who doesn't love someone, who may be a racist or a bigot or a white supremacist even. These are all absurd." I'm baffled as to how he reaches this conclusion. I think his conclusion is absurd but sadly Fr Wilton doesn't attempt to justify it. He leaves everyone to justify their own prejudices.
