This video should be played in every parish CCD & RCIA class. You will learn more about the Mass and the Eucharist watching this 20 minute video than spending 20 years in most parish religious education classes. Thank you Father!!! We homeschool our children and I will make sure they watch this video!!!

Fr Mark you earned your place in heaven today....4 weeks ago when you did this sermon, you did not know how close it was....in your 12 years as a priest you worked hard to save souls and bring the lost sheep home.... good snd faithful servant...Rest in Peace

I’m 73 yrs old & I have never heard anything so profound as I listened to Fr. Mark’s homily. It was electric! I didn’t know half of what was taught to us in Catholic school. Fr Mark, I praise u & thank you for this eye opening lesson. I was sooo ashamed & was in tears at the end of Fr. Mark’s homily. He has brought me closer to Our Lord & now he is gloriously in God’s arms. I wish I had known Fr. Mark sooner. RIP my friend🙏🇺🇸❤️

Has anyone heard the MASS taught in such a exceptionally profound manner! Thank you Father ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

When a dear loved one passes away, we say God had His reason for taking him. I dare to say that one of the reasons why God called his faithful son, was because his preaching had to be shared and heard.❤

This is the reason it is a privilege to be called to be Catholic and most cradle catholics don’t even realize it. When we take in the the Eucharist our hearts beat in unison and and His blood courses through our veins!! God bless🕊💜🕊

I’m a cradle Catholic and went to Catholic school up to college and didn’t learn all this. There is so much symbolism at mass that I didn’t know. Thank you Fr Beard. May your soul Rest In Peace,

He spoke like a saint! I have no doubt that Jesus opened those gates with a huge smile and a "well done my good and faithful servant." May He rest in peace!

WOW ! You never cease to amaze me with your teachings . Truly God is working through you . Thank you for your persistence to save our souls . God Bless you .

This was awesome! I’m a cradle Catholic and was moved to tears, especially when you talked about your stuttering and the fact that the only time you don’t is when you are proclaiming His Word! Praise God🙏

Every Catholic needs to hear this

4th time i watching this video, on the Sunday with tears for the love God is sending us through this Holy priests. His death caught my attention! ! Who else has brought over by his death? 🖐️ Remember Fr. Beard in our daily prayers

Thank you Fr. Mark. Your homilies are such gifts.

I was fortunate to be able to attend in person yesterday and was blown away! Listening again today and am sharing! God Bless Father Mark for not being afraid to PREACH, the Truth!

God bless Father Mark...I did not know about him until two days ago when i listened to his last homily before he passed away. Father Mark, pray for us. You are a true soldier of God.

GOD BLESS THIS HOLY PRIEST 🙏 ❤AMEN AND AMEN 🙏

I wish my kids would "hear" this!🙏🏻

I love how Father explained the Mass! We need more homilies like this!

Thank you God for blessing us with this holy man of truth. I think it is ironic that because of the tragic loss of Father Mark, I am compelled to follow him & listen to his powerful homilies. I never even knew of him until I heard of his passing. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Rest in God’s heaven peace dear Father Mark & m ay our ears & eyes be open to the truth you so beautifully proclaim🙏✝️💜

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May Fr. Mark’s soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace. Amen. 🙏🏼😇🙏🏼

I absolutely LOVE this priests Homilies, his delivery is amazing! I come from a Protestant background and this is how I remember my preacher, he said it like it was without holding back! I just found Fr Mark the other day and now he has gone on to his eternal reward. I'm sad I didn't find him sooner. Eternal Rest Grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him, may he rest in peace. ✝️🙏🏻

A big ole truth bomb 💣💥 just landed on my head! AMAZING Homily Father Mark!!! Thank you for this Sermon! EVERY CATHOLIC needs to hear this!!! ✝️

So passionate so wonderful. Rest in peace Fr. Mark, I met you on the internet way tooo late. But since they taped your homilies, those with ears should hear. ❤ 🙏

His homilies get to me evry time 😓😇😘❤Amen. What a powerful homily!

Amen! Amen! Fr. Mark you are an on fire true Priest of the Living God. Thank you for making your homilies and Sunday Masses available to everyone. May God bless you abundantly!

This is just the best explanation of The Mass I've ever heard. Praise God and Bless all of us Fr.

I wanted to send my condolences to his Parish. I didn't know him, I heard of his death on the news. This is the 1st time I heard him preach. He definitely had the love and fire in him for Jesus. Again I am truly sorry to hear of his death. I will have a mass said in his name at St. Joachim Church in Marrero, La. May God Bless you all

My condolences to the parishioners for the terrible loss of Fr Beard. This made me teary. A priest ON FIRE for the Lord. May he earn his heavenly reward quickly.🙏✝️💖

Very powerful teaching. Rest in peace Fr!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😢😢😢

Praying for Fr Marks soul. What a holy priest he was. Blessed Mother, bring him to the Sacred Heart of your Divine Son!!

Fr. Mark Beard please pray for us. May you rest in peace in the beautific vision.

Thank you Father for speaking the truth!

Father Mark. This homily struck my heart in a way that I have never experienced before. Your words at the end have marked me for life. I feel I failed as a parent because my older children have lost their faith. I will do better with my younger ones, and will pray hard to have my older children come back to the faith. May you rest in peace, in the presence of the True Loving God, now and forever. Amen 🙏🏼

Now this is the basics we need to teach our young people today , and refresh the memory of the older generation.🙏

Rest In Peace Fr… you are a true son of the Church.

My daughter played travel softball when she was younger. We would look up churches in that area. God always provided a mass for us . We even brought some of the girls on the team with us. Thank you Lord. 🙏✝️

I just saw on the internet yesterday Fr. Mark's homily on " The Fence". Never heard of him before. Just after viewing it, I saw that it was his last homily. I, then, was so moved, I started to listen to past KZfaq homilies. What a gift! Then, as I listened to this awesome one on the Eucharist, I was blown away. I've come to the conclusion that like St. Therese of Lisieux, he will do more good from Heaven than on earth as folks take in his homilies. Thank you, Fr.Mark.

I am so thankful and grateful to come across Father Mark's sermon and I learned a lots and lots...THANK YOU JESUS I LOVE YOU JESUS, I PRAISE YOU JESUS, I WORSHIP YOU JESUS...THANK YOU FOR YOUR AMAZING SERVANT...May he have a place with you in Eternal Life❤❤❤

Powerful! If only more Priests were as passionate about preaching the gospel as he was the church's wouldn't be as empty as they are now across America. I.came across his homily 's by chance only after hearing of his tragic passing. Rest in peace Father Mark Beard.

Thank you Heavenly Father for your servant Father Mark . May the Souls of the faithful departed rest in peace . Amen

Father you are a gift. May you be blessed in the highest of ways. Thank you for the truth.

Oh, Father, God rest your soul!! Thank you for this beautiful homily and for teaching the faith so beautifully!! 🕊️

Outstanding homily. "A remnant shall survive."

Eternal Rest grant unto Father Mark, O Lord. May Perpetual Light shine upon him. May Father Mark and ALL of the Faithful departed, through the Mercy of God, Rest in Peace. Amen.

Absolutely amazing. God bless him

Thank you Father Mark God bless you and keep you in his will always❤

I wish other pastors in the Baton Rouge diocese would preach like you Father

God rest the soul of this wonderful priest. I just read he has died in a tragic accident. Please keep him in your prayers.

Such a great priest ! I know nothing about him, or watch any of his homilies until his death. I think he will touch a lot of lost souls back to Jesus after his death through his homilies. Eternal rest grant to you, Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon you. May you rest in peace. Amen. My sincere condolence to the family of Fr. Mark, especially the mother. Love you Father

Every catholic parish must show this !!!!

Wow! Glory To God forever and ever! God’s Glorious Face shining then and now upon the Person and soul of Father’s Mark. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let Thy Perpetual Light shine upon him. Thank you Holy Spirit for Thy beautiful gift of wisdom, knowledge and empowerment in using those beautiful gift that conveyed such beautiful and live giving anchor for our faith which helps to remain in God’s Truth in Christ Jesus. Grateful to You oh God, for giving us the beautiful gift of your Church and Holy Priests. Hail Mary most Pure conceived without sin, pray for The Catholic Church and for Holy Priests to remain true to Jesus Our Lord and High Priest. Amen

We are going to miss you so much, Fr. Mark. Thank God and thank you for all that love and knowledge you gave us. May your soul rest in peace. ❤️

Surely his soul rocketed straight to heaven upon his death!Pray for us Fr.Mark - and we will pray for you 😘

Wow, what a homily and what a lesson. I was as out of breath as Fr. Mark was at the end. He is a great teacher. I wish I could have known him. I ask Fr. Mark Beard to pray for me often because he is up there with God. I can sense it and I think all of us can. What a holy man.

I remember asking God some time ago if there was a specific way of worshipping Him or if we can worship Him however we like (like so many people say). Today I got the answer with Fr. Mark's homily and the homily of another priest I heard earlier today.

Wow!!! This was fantastic!!!!

Ooh my God. Powerful preaching on the Mass and The Eucharist well communicated and easily understandable. God bless this priest of his.

I’m 76 and went to Catholic schools grade and high school, and was never taught this. It is wonderful. Rest in peace Father. Pray for our children❤
