- Exorcist Diary #391: An Exorcist's "Proof" that Jesus Truly Rose
[" Resurrection ", Annibale Carracci, 1593] [This is a reprinting of Exorcist Diary #340 . It is a reflection worth revisiting in the wake of Easter. Can we "prove" that Jesus rose from the dead? The experiences of an exorcist are perhaps some of the strongest "proofs" that He truly resurrected.] In the midst of the exorcism session I said, "By the power of the death and resurrection of Jesus, I command the demons to leave!" The out-front demon yelled back: "We won! We won! He didn't rise!' At that the priests in the room guffawed and I said, "This demon needs a history lesson." An exorcism is a dramatic experience of the truth of the resurrection. For example: +Mention of the very name of Jesus torments the demons. If Jesus was vanquished on the cross by Satan and by those who carried out Satan's plan to kill Jesus, would Jesus' name have any power over the demons? +Demons are terrified of priests and hate the Church . When I invoke the "keys of Peter" the demons howl. The Church receives her power and authority from the risen Christ, not someone who remained dead and buried. +In a recent exorcism we read a Gospel account of the Passion. The demons couldn't stand it and screamed, so we read it over and over again. If Satan defeated Jesus on the cross, why would the account of the Passion torment them? You would think they would rejoice. +One of the iconic moments of every exorcism is the priest holding up a crucifix and exclaiming: " Ecce crucem domini, fugite partes adversae " (Behold the cross of the Lord, depart you evil powers). The possessed will often say it burns to look at it; demons turn away and cannot even see it. A crucifix is not a sign of Jesus' defeat, it is the sign of Satan's demise. +Using the many Church sacramentals and holy objects torment and help to cast out the demons. Relics of the saints, the priest's stole, the scapular, the rosary, Benedictine medals and more all help to cast out demons. These sacramentals receive their power from the risen Christ and from the authority He gave to the Church. +Ultimately, every exorcism witnesses to the victory of Christ by its casting out of Satan and his minions. The Evil One could not be cast out by someone who was defeated on the cross and lay forever among the dead. An exorcism is a powerful witness to the truth of the resurrection. On the cross and resurrection, Jesus completely and forever vanquished the power of Satan and his minions. Participating in an exorcism, one is filled with the firm, unshakeable conviction: Jesus Christ is risen! Shortly after that demon exclaimed "He didn't rise," it was cast out. ------------------- +Our next free monthly deliverance session is Monday, April 20th.

I want MORE! I felt so much peace during and after the session. It was wonderful as I also felt light. Thank you so much Msgr. Rossetti and the whole staff of St. Michael Spiritual Centre. I have been doing the “Three Rs-reject, rebuke and renounce”. It has helped me tremendously. Very very peaceful! God bless you all. I have been very anxious of late due to medical issues…By the end of the session I had a sense of peace. I had a sense that God has a purpose for allowing this to happen. I had a feeling that He was right by my side wanting me to trust Him. Since beginning to attend the Healing and Deliverance Sessions several months ago, I have been healed and delivered of a lifetime of eating disorders: bulimia, anorexia, binge eating disorder and orthorexia. THANKS BE TO GOD! I always feel so much PEACE during and after the sessions. Today I was moved to tears considering our Heavenly Father’s love for me. I am praying for healing of a deep father wound, and I believe the healing has begun. I am so grateful for this wonderful ministry. Lots of tears- a sense of peace and accepting that I am a Beloved Child of the Father. When Msgr Rossetti said that Jesus would have died for me even if I were the only one to be saved that he loves me that much.. I broke down in tears and I kept crying for a few minutes.Then I felt peace and a HUGE relief. I had been severely oppresed in the last days,I couldnt go to Mass,I couldnt even pray..but that extreme darkness lifted when Msgr Rossetti said those words and they touched my heart. I think those words opened my heart to God's graces again! Listened to the Lenten retreat last night. This morning, 14 April, I have made the decision to go for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. My last was in 2017. Due to my anger and unforgiveness I stayed away. The Good Lord has never given up on me. Releasing soul ties or bonds I once had (and my family certainly has in the past generations) to negative attachments, previous sins, etc. was also super helpful. I literally felt lighter & just felt a sense of peace; so much peace it brought tears to my eyes. It was awesome. Had a strong sense Holy Spirit was present strong sense of peace in my heart. In the beginning, I just wanted to cry. I learned that I have more surrendering to do than I was aware of/childhood stuff and people that I hadn’t realized that I needed to forgive. Thankful for the new clarity. I also learned that my experience isn’t so unusual. I am thankful for the perspective shared of not freaking out about this but consistently praying and receiving the sacraments-drawing close to Jesus in every way possible to address these challenges and Jesus will be merciful. This was a beautiful time to self-reflect, ask for forgiveness, and receive abundant graces. This session was very painful to get through: the demons hated it. I felt sick in the stomach and exhausted and was tempted to log off a few times. Afterward, however, I felt great peace and the presence of Our Lady. I felt like I wanted to pray the rosary & stay close to Our Lady. I have great hope I will be eventually cured completely. A very healing session indeed! Thank you so much for your ministry!! Always a prayerful & uplifting experience! It was very restorative, as usual. When Father named the demons, specifically, I felt a release in my heart. Thank you. Beginning of session, when Msgr spoke of knowing God and the love of Jesus, I felt this incredible, beautiful love go into the very depth of my heart. I felt a release, a restoring and an incredible love that just filled my heart from the depths. So amazing & beautiful. I never knew my heart had such depth and felt such love deeply. I had a wonderful experience. Deep feeling of joy! My son was diagnosed with Diabetes. It’s been so difficult for me to accept it. Fear and despair took over me. I have been crippled. I know I need to trust and surrender, but it seems impossible. Tonight after all your prayers finally something has been lifted, I feel peace and I am able to trust and hope. God is in Control. Fear is gone! Thank you ❤️ Jesus I loved the retreat I cried alot through it lots of tears 😢 my hope it’s tears of healing 🙏 … to be part of this retreat today helped greatly to let me know I’m not alone on my journey 🙏 This was a blessing beyond anything that I imagined. Thank you for this ministry! Uncontrollable tears...sobbing during the prayer to break the Freemasonic curses. Same experience during the prayer by Fr. Amorth. A deep sense of Peace and shear Joy at end. It was a beautiful prep for Holy week, so much better than I expected. Felt healing and peace for me and and hopefully for my family that I prayed for. Such powerful prayers. I am so grateful for this ministry Beautiful time of prayer and recollection. Having experienced sexual abuse by my father at 5 years old, I felt a lot of ‘bubbling’ in my womb during the prayers and some ‘snapping’, as if a rope broke off inside me. I felt much more at peace with myself and managed to fully forgive my father during the session. It also helped me experience love, compassion and acceptance towards myself. Thank you very much for the wonderful work that you do at St Michael’s Centre. God bless you all. I felt a lot of physical tension melt away and inner peace take its place. I felt things lifting off of me and specifically when you prayed for heart walls and Jesus to enter into our hearts, I felt the biggest wave of His Joy flood into me During the various prayers of this session, my eyes welled up with tears a few times. Also, I felt extremely nauseous at one point…I now feel a great peace of mind and heart. This was just the thing to help me begin Holy Week. Thank you for your ministry. I always feel so much joy and peace after participating I had such a headache with a strong feeling of suffocation in my neck (I rarely have headaches!), weird body aches, also I felt such peace and love that I never received from my parents or friends, an unpleasant heat, and I was burping. Even after the session, I am still burping (like something wants to come out from my stomach) but I believe God will completely set me free these following days. Thank you so much, God bless you and have a blessed Easter! Powerful Retreat! It was mostly with the intention of my son sitting through the entire session for the sake of inner healing. He is soooooo joyful after the retreat. He is a teen boy and for sure I know something shifted in a positive way and the healing of the inner wounds have begun. He would say he is a hopeless boy, full of fear and the list could go on and on but after the retreat, he is different. Even physically something is different in a positive way. God bless you Father and the team for the great work. I had a strong sense of His presence and His peace. Afterwards, I was left with a deeper confidence in God, a internal joy, and a calm sense of peace--like a bubble around me. I am so grateful. When I named my fear of rejection. I had a overwhelming feeling a peace that came over me. I cried so hard at the prospect of finally being able to live free from that oppressive fear! As a child of divorce, and someone who my parents and the world around me never fully understood. I always felt unworthy, unloved, unvaluable. I don’t know if I’ll ever truly be able to live this side of heaven with that kind of confidence but I now know that it can exist for me and God wants me to have it. It was an emotionally healing time. Halfway the prayer session the heaviness of something like depression, anxiety/fear and fatigue for not been able to sleep was lifted! I experienced healing and peace, was able to sleep in peace. The retreat was amazing. I felt real peace and increase in faith A powerful experience that lasted even through this morning so far. Been despondent and anxious for 4 months, looking forward to some spiritual relief and THIS retreat. The dark clouds parted yesterday, and upon waking up. No overpowering feeling of doom that was always present. I experienced intense crying when praying the prayers for forgiveness especially when I had to forgive my husband and myself. Thank you so much for your wonderful prayers. I was experiencing some discouragement in life and I found myself filled with new-found hope and encouragement. I was more joy filled at the end of the session and had more peace. I really needed this retreat. Thank you so much for the Lenten online retreat. I usually get distracted while trying to pray. However, this time I experienced a laser focus and peace. I was caught off-guard when prayers for casting out spirits of depression and anxiety occurred. A wave of nausea came over me with a feeling of passing out followed by a headache. Then, I felt like I could fall asleep; a restful sense. I was feeling particularly tormented today and was so happy when I saw the alarm that the retreat was about to begin. I cried during the prayer of release from self-hatred and felt so peaceful. I felt so peaceful and happy at the end of the retreat, excited and feeling very energetic. Amazing session. Felt at peace and very joyful plus I have the conviction the lord heard my prayers I really enjoyed the retreat, as always. I attended confession for the first time in 30 years, yesterday, and I hadn’t realized how both attending and not attending all those years had affected me. I noticed during this deliverance session that I had peace of both body and spirit. It was a battle over a couple of months to go to confession and I know Jesus got me there step by step. Thank you to you all for everything you do for us. I felt a profound peace. I went to confession in the morning then attend the Lenten retreat. After the retreat I had such a peace I have not felt for a long time. For the first time in over a month I felt peace and hope. I suffer from many traumas, depression & anxiety as well in financially dire position. I have been attending now over 2 years and have experienced gentle touches of deliverance during prayers and have coughed my way through a few sessions, as well. I know they work. I’m living experience of the power of the Catholic Church’s Deliverance & Healing Ministry, including the Sacramental Life of the Church. I’m so happy to be Catholic! I’m so happy you all came into my life! I praise God for all He has done through your ministry during the online retreat! I have received so many Graces. I was asking for healing and deliverance from Chronic Fatigue, Brain fog, Chronic Viral infection and food allergies. While the last two things would require tests to show a change I can testify that the debilitating fatigue has greatly diminished, and the brain fog has lifted!! Praise God!!!I am so grateful to God I was moved to tears. I felt healing. Loved every minute!! Very informative and most of all spiritually full. Experienced cleansing tears and relief of some anxiety associated with prayers for my adult children. Thank you!! This was a wonderful experience. A very healing experience. The prayers were beautiful and I will be joining again next month. The SMC teachings are now a routine, needed, relied upon, and necessary part of my spiritual life. I deeply thank God for Msgr Rossetti & all at SMC. I studied the 14 rules of Saint Ignatius & SMC brings it all into a more practical spiritual reality. The spiritual defense is so needed right now I don't know truly do not know where I would be without the monthly SMC prayer sessions for myself family and generations past and future. God bless all. Some burping and nausea during the Latin deliverance prayers and some other prayers around then ..... but much much peace. Incredibly peaceful; thanks be to God's mercy thru Jesus and Mary. I realized that what I needed was to forgive myself. I also was able to pray against generational spirits in my family of birth and for healing of the relationship with my adult son. THANK YOU FOR THIS TREMENDOUS MINISTRY OF MERCY FOR US. This time really suits us here in Ireland. 🇮🇪 Absolutely powerful.. as a wife & mother I had the retreat on in the kitchen, in the car, the supermarket, going around in my hoodie, and everyplace I went yesterday. God’s blessings spilling out into the community…God bless you all Very peaceful with several insights into my behavior It was incredible. I felt Joy and Peace, and especially totally secure in the Love of God, and his power of healing in his time. I feel so grateful to God for calling me to this retreat. What an amazing experience. So many times I felt the power of the Holy Spirit working.
- Exorcist Diary #390: Demons Try to Manipulate Exorcist
[" Christ Giving the Keys of the Kingdom to St. Peter ," Pietro Perugino, 1481-1482] We had just finished an exorcism session and the afflicted person looked at me and said, “The demons have a message for you." He then said: “Ask Joey how Francis is.” He had no idea what it meant. I thought about it for a moment and then figured it out. It was demonic evil genius. In five words they tried to diss me, control me, frighten me, and then, their major goal, to turn me against the Church hierarchy. They want me to be like them: disobedient and distrusting the Church. First, the short sentence demonstrated occult knowledge which is one of the signs of possession. He knew something about me that there is no human way he could have known it. Yes, in junior high school, which is a LONG time ago, my nickname among a small circle of summer friends was Joey. Now, no one knows this except the demons. They wanted me to be impressed by their "power" and to be frightened. I was neither. Second, and most important, they said: “How Francis is?” They were referring to the Pope at the time, although they would never call him by his title, just as they would never call me “Father.” It's no secret that, especially after the Pachamama incident, some exorcists were unhappy. So, the demons tried to exploit this and wanted me to distance myself from the Church and its leadership. I did not. A constant refrain of mine when teaching exorcists and team members is: “Stay in the Boat.” By this I mean, stay in the barque or boat of Peter, otherwise we lose the powerful protection of the Church, which we so greatly need for our ministry. Yes, the Church is, and has always been, led by flawed human beings, from the very beginning. The Passion narrative, that we read during this Holy Week, is a stunning disaster for the Apostles. Peter denied Jesus three times; one of the apostles, Judas, betrayed him; and the others fled when Jesus was arrested. It is likely that only apostle present at the foot of the cross was John. Ultimately, it is a question of faith. We Catholics believe that the Church was founded by Jesus himself. Jesus continues to give the Church its authority. And the Holy Spirit continues, without fail, to guide the Church toward its final consummation in Christ. I feel incredibly blessed to be a Catholic. I remain in the Barque of Peter. I encourage all to do the same. As the Scriptures tell us: "You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the hell shall not prevail against it."

Thanks be to God. Great, feeling renew and lighter Wonderful retreat! Thank you very much. I discovered the wall around my heart is not forgiving others. It is for protection from hurt from family (siblings) who are unpredictable…I have forgiven them…You and your team are helping people. Great prayers, covered everything and more! I felt my heart open up during the prayer, and I cried and cried! I can't believe the immense grace and love of God. It is astounding! Peace and joy Our family is currently praying for the repose of soul, and eternal peace for my (by suicide). Your prayers of Deliverance continues to heal my weary soul, esp. in this sorrow. I had a very positive experience and at times felt very close to God. Wonderful experience as I prepare for my Baptism this Easter. Very enlightening and uplifting. I suddenly started crying during the Cyprian prayer. I also felt very sleepy from the moment Monsignor first appeared on the screen. After the retreat, I felt happier and lighter, and the pain in my right ankle diminished after the prayers. I felt the walls around my heart crumble down & my heart be lighter. Peaceful and nurturing. I felt a deep sense of peace and gratitude during the session There’s a lot of things in my heart that I need to let go of. And the Lenten Retreat made me realize that I have to be “Christ-like” and made me “whole” again spiritually. I experienced peace and freedom during the prayers. Wonderful, excellent, extremely educational and, of course, powerful content. I feel renewed. Such a good feeling. I felt a sense of peace. Something I haven't experienced for a very long time. This Lenten Deliverance Retreat offered me a great talk and powerful prayer without having to leave home. Felt a deep refreshment!; a sense of being renewed with clarity! I felt something lift off me numerous different times throughout the deliverance prayers I didn’t feel safe growing up and this gives me the confidence that God truly is there and watching over me and wants the best for me. I cried and I'm not a crier! Healing tears and release of so much heartache and pain from multiple family betrayals…Abundant thanks to you and your amazing, selfless Team The topic was very timely for me and the deliverance prayers are something I need to heal from the grief I am suffering from the death of my husband. Very grateful!!! Knee pain gone. Mental peace and a quiet joy. Calmed me. I feel much lighter after the retreat. I was getting constant spasms in my right side of my back during the initial deliverance prayers…I also felt things being pulled or lifted from me during the freemasonry prayers. Excellent. I felt many burdens lifted from my soul… Beautiful. Hope-filled. I’m always so encouraged by these sessions! Excellent. Very powerful prayers. I am a recent convert (approaching 2 years). Before, I was trapped in the New Age and in a psychedelic cult, which really messed me up for some years. I have been attending these online sessions for about a year. I am profoundly grateful for the healing I have received. The retreat gave me calmness and encouragement. I love the deliverance sessions. I have been attending those for over a year. It provides me a sense of peace that I am unable to describe. I was emotionally devastated by the estrangement of my only son. I always feel so peaceful and safe during these sessions. I felt Holy Spirit moving through my body in the form of “intense warmth” especially around the heart area; while praying St.Patrick prayer of protection! Love the prayers and the blessings. Very comforting. Blessed and humbled to have participated to today’s Retreat. Great selection of prayers. It was uplifting but convicting at the same time. I’m on the right track but still have many mountains to climb to try and become holy and to be worthy of being in the presence of My Lord and Savior. But, I am hopeful and joyful. Thank you Monsignor! My experience was awesome It was wonderful being immersed in such beautiful prayers and intentions. I felt refreshed and empowered after the retreat. I was feeling very heavily oppressed before the session , but midway through i felt a great relief. I feel exhausted now but in a good way, like I am no longer having to resist and can finally rest. It was very helpful, inspiring and hopeful. Leading up to the retreat I was feeling very heavy and unwell (cold and flue like symptoms, strong headaches) after the retreat was done I didn’t have any of those symptoms…many obstacles to attend this retreat but at the end God won! I found the whole event absolutely stunning, and spiritually very cleansing. Wonderful experience highly recommended. I felt more clear-headed and at peace after Lenten session. Again I had uncontrollable coughing!…Several people and situations came to mind and I knew I had to pray for them. Many tears also. Thank you and your team for this incredible Ministry. Fantastic! I've had so much coming at me lately. So, when Msgr came to the segment of casting out evil spirits, I felt an incredible and great release and freedom. I'm so blessed to have been able to receive these deliverance prayers virtually. I grew up in the occult and my Catholic faith has saved and delivered me. I felt a release of tears when reciting the prayer to love and forgive myself. Thank you so much Father and team. You are light in a dark world. You will never know how much I needed this retreat. I had been going through a lot of conflicting thoughts and questions. When this retreat ended the peace I felt was overwhelming.
- Exorcist Diary #389: Demons Choke on the Name of Mary
[Mary Crushing The Serpent" from " Immaculate Conception ," detail, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1767-1768] Typically the first words out of demons' mouths are: "She/he belongs to me!" An exorcism is essentially a battle for ownership. Demons claim the person. The new Rite of Exorcism, which is very effective, is based upon the Sacrament of Baptism. The person is "reclaimed" for Christ. In baptism, the Priest says: "I claim you for Christ our Savior." In an exorcism, the afflicted person recites the Creed (if possible i.e. not fully manifesting) thus affirming the Faith. Then, he/she explicitly rejects Satan and all his works. Often I will follow this by asking the afflicted person to repeat three times after me: "I belong to Jesus." And then, "I reject, I renounce, I rebuke Satan and all the demons." Often I will add: "And Mary is my spiritual mother." In a recent case, the person had no problem with affirming the Creed, claiming to belong to Jesus, and rejecting Satan. But when we got to: "Mary is my spiritual mother," the demons refused. They were choking on her name. I commanded them again and again to say it: "And Mary is my spiritual mother!" After a bit of a battle, the afflicted person finally managed to say it and then vomited. It was an important "win" in the spiritual battle. We priest-exorcists know that Jesus is Lord. It is he and he alone who has conquered Satan. It is in his name that the demons are cast out. And time and again I have seen the power of that holy name: Jesus! But there is something about Mary that really gets to demons. Exorcisms often affirm that Satan is particularly humiliated by Mary and her power over him. Satan believes all humans are vastly inferior to him. He recoils at being wholly overcome so completely by this little woman. We see this played out in an exorcism. We believe it is part of Satan's just punishment- to be cast out by Mary, and not Jesus directly. In fact, I have never witnessed Jesus personally showing up in an exorcism. Certainly he is always spiritually present and it is his person that empowers what we do. But God does not give Satan the "satisfaction" of going toe-to-toe with the Divine, to which he likes to style himself as equal. When the time comes for Satan to be ejected, Jesus sends his beautiful, humble Mother. It is a sign of God's loving care for us, to send us such a wonderful mother. And should anyone doubt the true holiness and power of a holy motherhood, Mary is the model. And, in her presence, the King of Hell is no match. ------------------------------------ + The next Online deliverance session is Monday April 20th at 7-8pm Eastern USA time with rosary at 6:30pm.

Again I had uncontrollable coughing!…Several people and situations came to mind and I knew I had to pray for them. Many tears also. Thank you and your team for this incredible Ministry. Fantastic! I've had so much coming at me lately. So, when Msgr came to the segment of casting out evil spirits, I felt an incredible and great release and freedom. I'm so blessed to have been able to receive these deliverance prayers virtually. I grew up in the occult and my Catholic faith has saved and delivered me. I felt a release of tears when reciting the prayer to love and forgive myself. Thank you so much Father and team. You are light in a dark world. You will never know how much I needed this retreat. I had been going through a lot of conflicting thoughts and questions. When this retreat ended the peace I felt was overwhelming.
- Exorcist Diary #283: Can demons be converted?
[" The Storm on the Sea of Galilee ," Rembrandt van Rijn, 1633] Recently I have been sent "private revelations" from different people who claim that Jesus told them that demons can be converted. Some are actually engaged in interacting with and praying for demons, thus believing they are facilitating the demons' conversion and entry into heaven. As one person told me: "If God is all-powerful and all-merciful, why wouldn't He offer the grace of conversion to the demons and even to Satan?" The Church's teaching and long tradition is very clear: "It is the irrevocable character of their choice, and not a defect in the infinite divine mercy, that makes the angels' sin unforgivable. 'There is no repentance for the angels after their fall, just as there is no repentance for men after death.'" CCC 393. From the beginning, angels were given an infused knowledge of all the ramifications of rejecting God, yet some chose to do so. It does not make rational sense, but the choice for evil is always against reason. I often quote an exchange I had with the demons in an exorcism, causing them to face the Truth and thus facilitate their expulsion: I said, "In Jesus' name, I command you to tell me the truth. Did you make a bad decision in rejecting God?" With a nasty snarl, the demons responded, "Yes." I then said, "In Jesus' name, tell me the truth. Are you suffering now because of it?" Again, a nasty snarl, "Yes." I said finally, "In Jesus' name, tell the truth. Would you change your decision if you could?" With an evil emphatic growl the demons said, "No!" Private revelations of supposed seers must always be subject to the tradition and teaching authority of the church that Jesus founded and to which he gave his authority. History is replete with misguided visionaries and false projects. Those who are following these misguided individuals put themselves in spiritual danger. This recent spate of "private revelations" about converting demons is coming from several different sources and suggests to me that the Evil One is using this as yet another demonic tactic. It is sowing seeds of confusion and doubt, if not downright deception and promoting dangerous spiritual practices. The Evil One wants us to engage him and his demons. They are master manipulators. Pope Francis has rightly warned the faithful time and again not to communicate directly with demons. It is even forbidden for exorcists except in limited circumstances directly related to casting out the demons. Moreover those who believe they are listening to Jesus but, in fact, are likely listening to their own spiritual fancies or, worse yet, to the whispers of Satan may be in grave spiritual danger. Stay in the barque of Peter. Stay in the safe and secure teachings of the Bible and the authoritative teachings of the Catholic Church. Most assuredly, this boat will weather all demonic storms and bring you safely home. -------------------------- *Don't miss our next free monthly deliverance session Monday April 15th .

- Exorcist Diary #388: Priest Misled by False Spirit
["Demon Deceiving a Soul", computer generated and blessed by a priest] I was recently contacted by a priest who asked for assistance. We chatted and I thought his experience was instructive for us all. With his permission, here it is: As a priest I was fascinated, curious and a bit envious of those with special spiritual gifts like speaking in tongues, a word of knowledge, prophecy, or, for some priests, the gifts of healing. Many of my close priest friends had these gifts. The good news is that God sees everything, hears our thoughts, and knows the plan He has for us. The bad news is the demons also are watching everything we do and are brilliant and seductive. They like giving us power, pleasure, honor and occult knowledge in order to hook us under their dominion. About ten years ago a lady told me a person had a special message for me from one of my dead friends. My instinct was that this is fraudulent knowledge, but I thought I don’t understand everything in the spiritual realm. Perhaps this “medium” had a special gift? Perhaps this person had a word of knowledge or prophecy for me? I figured I should discern this with a priest who was very gifted and was known for healing and deliverance. I hoped that his expertise could shed light on the offer from the medium. The “gifted” priest met this “medium” and concluded that she had a legitimate, special gift. Further, he said: “Don’t tell anyone about her since we have to protect her!” Right there the demons had me hooked. Not only did I trust my “gifted” priest friend that this medium had true knowledge, but I followed his advice to keep this secret so no one would condemn the “medium” through a “witch trial.” I followed the medium’s messages for six years. This person claimed to channel Jesus, the Blessed Mother, and two deceased priest friends. I have to admit I felt special that Our Lord and Our Lady wanted to communicate with me. The demons knew I envied those priests with special “gifts” so they tricked me into believing their knowledge was pure. In hindsight, the voice of "our Lord" who spoke through the medium was mean, demanding and would yell at me. Although I was honored that I was chosen to receive these messages, I always experienced stress and fear when talking with "our Lord". I finally saw the light when the stress became too much and I cut off ties with this medium. However, afterward I struggled with overwhelming fear and anxiety that I had never known. I could not sleep well and had to see two therapists to deal with my anxiety. Eventually I met a priest who prayed over me and slowly I recovered my peace of mind. I have also used Msgr. Rossetti’s “Pray With Me” videos for continued liberation from these demons. I hope others will learn from my experience and follow St. John of the Cross who taught us to ignore “messages” from the dead or from mediums. We should trust God and His church who teaches us to pray and listen for the small, still voice of the Holy Spirit. We don’t need to follow mediums with supposed “special gifts”. The truth is that the demons can mimic any gift that God uses so we should not focus on special gifts but on prayer, sacraments and service. There are indeed people with special spiritual gifts from the true Lord. But many more times, I have found that people, claiming to have special spiritual gifts, were being deceived either by the demons or by their own imagination. It is especially problematic when people claim to be mediums who are channeling the dead. We Christians do not do such things. Skepticism about such things is good. "Beloved, do not trust every spirit but test the spirits to see whether they belong to God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world" (1Jn4:1). ----- + The next Online deliverance session is Monday April 20th at 7-8pm Eastern USA time with rosary at 6:30pm.

Rossetti. It was amazing and so inspiring and it touched my soul! We felt peace and joy… I found out freemasonry was in my family a couple years ago. Evil influence was all around me and my family…I am noticing progress, a great deal of it compared to two years ago, many health issues still but progress continues. A spiritual lifeline in a sea rife with darkness and despair. Great prayers and community! My son…joined us this evening for the entire session. He is now praying the rosary and going to mass. He went to confession for the first time in many years last week. My 1st and It was amazing Peace and calm afterwards thank you! At the beginning of the session, I felt sleepy…After a while I was ok…I felt tingling in my hands and then my feet on and off throughout the session and even after. Many thanks to all at the St. Michael Center. My husband, me and our daughter prayed with you tonight from Switzerland Geneva. I was amazed after the prayers finished our daughter said she felt peace and slept right away and myself I felt the peace of the Lord and His love in my heart. These prayers were so powerful and i felt so much peace after the session… This session was exceptionally great! I experienced so much releasing and freedom throughout the entire hour. Thank you so much Jesus! Since I have started to participate in deliverance sessions I don't experience any sexual urges as I did before. I can say for certain that I have been delivered from sexual addiction I have struggled for years. I feel lighter and spiritually cleansed. I have a very hard life that I cannot even begin to express in words and any little blessing I receive or act of mercy, I am so grateful for it. And I love the prayers Father [said] in the session. It was incredibly powerful. I'm so grateful. This was a truly liberating experience that will help me overcome obsessive patterns… I feel so good praying those special prayers not only for myself but for my family members. For healing. Physically and spiritually…It is the holiest hour of prayer I’ve ever experienced. Thank you for these wonderful services! I’m so grateful to be able to pray with my fellow Christians…Last night, I slept well for the first time in weeks. Tears but a sense of deep peace afterward. I immediately felt free and light. I felt all this oppression left, and the lethargy was much improved after tonight’s session Came to the session feeling overwhelmed. As the prayers began I began to feel sleepy but remembered from previous sessions Monsignor mentioning this so I fought it. When he prayed to lift darkness, I found myself sighing deeply and feeling lighter. I had a greater sense of peace as the session ended. God bless you. I do feel very peaceful…I have been dealing with a financial block on my life. Lots of voodoo in my family and jealousy. So I am so thankful as I wait [for] the Lord. I always feel a tremendous sense of Peace I watched the video this morning…I felt the Lord revealed some demons to me that I'd been holding on to without knowing. I especially needed to hear Msgr. Rossetti explain that no life is wasted. I had been struggling with that, recently. I was praying and hoping for Satan to leave me. I by some grace of God just returned to the Catholic Church last June. I've delved in some satanic rituals online and have committed some satanic sins…I have confessed my sins in confession. He still vexes me…As Fr. was saying the latin prayer My body shook. Helps to encourage me to persevere in the spiritual life, I feel strengthened. I'm a convert to the Catholic Church. My mother's family were very involved in the masons, eastern star etc…I have people in my family who mess around with the occult and I feel more at peace after this session praying and being prayed over about these influences…Thank you so much for this wonderful resource I always feel at peace when the sessions end. Very tired out of nowhere when it started, but the fatigue lifted soon. I felt lighter during several of the deliverance prayers, and I was crying in a healing way for several minutes. My experience has been wonderful and very rewarding. Thank you for this special grace and blessing. …everytime I attend this sessions there will always be an overwhelming lifting of heaviness and pain. I even felt a right shoulder pain and pain on my head during deliverance but was gone after minutes after the prayer. God is always good. These sessions have gotten me closer to the Lord and to my faith I felt peace and courage I could not stop smiling knowing by the power of God through Msgr Rossetti that God loves me and I love him. Very peaceful…I have depression and terrible fear but these sessions help me so much. I sleep better. I can't live without them. I have been doing them for a long time. I can't thank you enough. I love these sessions… Thank you thank you thank you for doing this. Well I vomited a lot…I am from…South America. I suffered sexual abuse when I was child so when you said that demons I have manifestations in my body like nauseas. It has been very difficult to liberate me and my child of the incest in my family and its consequences. Excellent and overwhelming peace afterwards I think I was delivered from self hatred, shame & a long standing death wish & oppression. I slept very well . Thank you. The prayer session was effective in releasing layers of things. As Monsignor did the binding /sealing prayers after we rebuked particular spirits,I let out a lot of surprising burps then a huge burp! At last prayer another surprising big burp. My heart feels less burdened and free of emotional attachments.. I have trauma from childhood abuse. It was buried in my memories for years. In the meantime I married an alcoholic narcissist…Last night through [Msgr’s] prayers Immaculate Mary showed me her heart. These monthly evenings are becoming a true blessing in my life. I have been struggling with some depression lately and felt lighter after the session, like it had lifted, which brought me peace. I feel blessed and loved after the session. I could feel the power of Christ moving in me. I constantly battle with the demons of lust and anger, and I could feel them being pushed away. I know that it is a never ending battle here in this world, but we have the key with Jesus. I will be back next month. Peaceful, calming, closeness to God We are praying with my wife, who suffers from oppression (rooted in a generational curse - Freemasonic…) And it is a great help for us. Dizziness and burping, my heart ra[c]ed and headache while praying to Remove Generational Spirits and when you mentioned the prayer to remove Masonry I got chills, in the remove divination [prayer] I felt so tired and Msgr was praying in latin prayers, felt super cold. However, felt warm and cozy in the Litany of Children of God. Felt loved. I was physically relieved of a lot of tension in my body especially chronic pain from a herniated disk in my neck that I have had for over 30 years. I always feel lighter and happier after these amazing sessions. Not only do I experience a sense of being delivered from the evil I unfortunately encountered (via yoga/ an occult energy worker)… I also find that Monsignor Rossetti always teaches me something more about God and the best way to live our life here on Earth. I felt very tired especially during the Latin prayers which I think you said was a good indication that it is helping. I felt a lot better at the end. I felt myself relaxing, feeling sleepy during the hour. This is not typical for me since I often feel anxious and on edge…Some oppression that causes despair was lifted and gone. I felt some things leave. I went to confession yesterday for the first time in 41 years and only for the third time in my whole life and I slept better last night than I usually do…I just want to be free. I haven't felt free in my whole life. I have been so inflicted and felt so rejected finally I feel God and the Church have not abandon[ed] me. Now I feel so blessed all the prayers, all the teachings! It seems as I prepare for the monthly sessions havoc breaks loose and I get tired and something in my body hurts (sinuses, or head or stomach....) but I know God is bigger and wants me to "attend"...Memories of past rough experiences or hurtful people arise and I've been forgiving more and more and asking to be forgiven. I am filled with peace and hope and learning more. Very beautiful. Always peaceful & uplifting. Thank you so much. The prayers were extremely powerful. While the session was going on, my daughter was screaming and sort of growling in the next room. I kept praying for her to receive all the prayers Fr. Stephen was praying with the Keys of St. Peter. I felt lots of movement in my abdomen area during the prayer to be freed from Masonic curses. Total peace. I went into deep sleep at times. The house fills lighter. Always feel strengthened and encouraged! Praise God! Amazing!!! I felt much peace. I believe that a spell or incantation was lifted as I feel more free around the upper part of my body and able to breath with more peace. Excellent! Thank you!!! Once again, I fell into a deep sleep on the floor, but I could hear the prayers on my PC and many times responded. My body would not get up but I wasn't worried because I knew I was in the arms of God… It’s a beautiful experience and I am thankful to God for all of you. I find great comfort throughout most of session…where Father prayed in Latin, there were ugly visions that bombarded my brain. It’s almost as if the enemy was try to mock what was happening. it was excellent, excellent, excellent. I find the prayer session to be amazing. I've never participated in a Deliverance prayer session. My mother, brother and sister are very toxic, narcissistic and abusive towards me (and my father)…I forgive them. Thank you for all of your beautiful prayers and your help A truly blessed and healing experience. I suffered an injury a couple of weeks ago and was in a lot of discomfort, barely able to walk. I attended the SMC online prayer session last night, and this morning, I felt significantly much better! Enlightening. I feel my head is about to explode during Exorcism prayers. I am son of a 33 degree freemason. I only found out about this at last moment, I signed in and was so open. I believe I received a healing. And some of the questions Father answered at the end, I swear they were for me. Especially the one about thinking I wasted my life. This prayer session brought peace and calmness into my soul. Just what I needed. I am coming back to my beautiful Catholic faith…I got into the new age in a big way, meditation, chanting, etc. The beautiful religion I was born into has everything I need and have ever needed. I have depression, yet by the end of the session I had a smile on my face and I felt lifted. Calming peace. Less self condemnation and self doubt I woke up scared and with a dreaded feeling, but knowing that prayer session will help, it was difficult to keep awake during the session but persevered and stayed until the end and this morning I feel totally refreshed It was very uplifting. I was treated more like the servant of my family. Emotionally abused and put down. I took care of both my elderly parents until their death…I wept heavily when I got to the part that I needed to forgive them and my siblings who did not support me enough. Thank You! Wow! That was really good! I felt so broken and mentally tormented today, but I listened to Fr Rossetti and his deliverance prayers & they brought me so much peace At one point last night something in me shifted and I found myself crying - nothing outrageous, not ugly crying, but something very real seemed to release. It felt good and I was grateful to God, and for your ministry. Thank you! I had turned to crystals and meteorites that supposedly had healing properties in the past…I still felt a connection to them…Our Lord Jesus Christ through your ministry has broken the hold they had on me. I began to suspect demonic activity after some seriously troubling activity at our home…Now, after a year of monthly attendance, special session attendance, with participation in the sacraments and holy mass, my personal symptoms are gone and prayers for my parents are working! They returned to church! This was my third session and I love it. It’s the same feeling I have after a good confession…unburdened and peaceful. I had a beautiful experience tonight. I always feel an intensity regarding casting out free masons. My grandfather on my mother's side was a 33 degree. During the session I sensed a strong and powerful influence going to my children and their families so I have a renewed hope for them. I felt really hot at times. And I felt some nasty energies leave me. I also felt very relaxed and focused like I knew wholeheartedly I was doing the right thing. I cried as well during certain points and feel very relieved. I didn’t know what to expect and it was so much more! I was very emotional, I felt free at the end. During the session, where we are to forgive, I was compelled to think of when I was a child: I was made fun of for years. Once Msgr. finished his prayer, I started sobbing uncontrollably - couldn't stop, nor did I want to. It felt so good! Many tears. Very powerful deliverance session…Your ministry is an absolute blessing. Thank you. During the early prayers I realized that the sadness I often feel during formal prayers and mass stem from a sense of failure, regret that my life has not measured up to expectations. The prayers helped me understand that this feeling is not from God… These monthly sessions are SO HELPFUL!!!!
- Exorcist Diary #387: Deceived by Demons
["Safe in the Barque of Peter," digitally generated and blessed by priest] A priest-exorcist contacted me about a difficult case. It started out like a typical situation and they were making good progress. But then things started to shift. Instead of the demons and their antics getting weaker, they were actually getting stronger. For example, for the first year or so, he barely needed to be restrained in an exorcism session. But around year three, he became increasingly violent. Four strong men could barely restrain him. His nightly demonic attacks were worse. And he was becoming increasingly suicidal. The Exorcist added that, some time ago during the sessions, the demons started to reveal secret theological insights about the Church and the world. The Exorcist believed that God was forcing them to reveal these secrets. The demons admitted how devastating the suffering of victim souls was to Satan's plans. After each session the Exorcist documented these insights and compiled a theological narrative. He became excited to hear what the demons were "forced" to say next. And yet, the possessed man continued to get worse. After listening to his description, I told him that he was being played by the demons. He objected and said he knew that the demons were being forced by God to tell truth. I countered and said, "No." I explained that Exorcists are not to listen to demons and, in fact, he should shut them up the minute they start to chatter. Rather, the only information he should obtain from them is that which pertains to the details of the case as permitted in the Rite. For example, in the traditional Rite of Exorcism, the Exorcist demands the demons answer: dicas mihi nomen tuum (tell me your name); diem et horam exitus tui (the day and hour of your departure); quid stas et resistis (why do you stand and resist). The priest was "coloring outside the lines" and it allowed the demons to deceive him. They manipulated his curiosity and spiritual pride. His sin of disobedience was an open portal. I told him that in the future, the moment they start to get chatty, he should say, "In Jesus' name, close your mouth." And I told him to say it as a command! He went into the next session and did so. He said the look of fury on the demons' faces was astounding. Their ruse had been discovered and they had to endure the torment of the priest's obedience. And the ensuing spiritual battle for the next few sessions was incredibly intense, revealing the spiritual power of obedience. But after a while, with this new approach of keeping the demons silent and regaining the authority of obedience to the Church, the intensity of the sessions lessened and his demonic attacks became more manageable. Whew! Demons do not get stronger unless someone "feeds" them. And, in this case, the Exorcist himself, with his disobedience and pride, was inadvertently feeding them. The guidelines for Exorcists are clear: do not converse with demons. They are master manipulators and they lie incessantly. Even when you think they are telling the truth, beware. They are good at faking. Moreover, do not listen to them. Rather, shut them up. And only allow them to speak in answer to the basic questions permitted in the traditional Rite. Beware of anything else. Satan is rightly called the Father of Lies ( pater mendacii ) and Deceiver of the Human Race ( deceptor humani generis ). I recall once a religious priest and I were exorcizing a young man. At one point, the demons said they were going to tell the names of all the priests in his community who were not faithful and they would reveal their secret sins. For a moment, it sounded interesting and titillating. However, I recovered and immediately shut them up. To engage in such an exercise would have been a spiritual disaster. And, as always, they would have sown distrust, conflict, and division with many lies sprinkled with a few kernels of truth as bait. If there is any ministry on this planet which MUST obey the discipline of the Church it is the ministry of exorcism. The slightest breach can become a demonic opening and rest assured, they will take advantage of it. What to do? Be obedient as Jesus was obedient to the Father. This is abhorrent to demons whose existence is replete with disobedience. Stay in the barque of Peter. It will bring you safely home. ------------------------- +Our LENTEN RETREAT is this Saturday, March 14th from 11am to 1pm. It will include an extensive deliverance session plus Msgr.

Very peaceful…I have depression and terrible fear but these sessions help me so much. I sleep better. I can't live without them. I have been doing them for a long time. I can't thank you enough. I love these sessions… Thank you thank you thank you for doing this. Well I vomited a lot…I am from…South America. I suffered sexual abuse when I was child so when you said that demons I have manifestations in my body like nauseas. It has been very difficult to liberate me and my child of the incest in my family and its consequences. Excellent and overwhelming peace afterwards I think I was delivered from self hatred, shame & a long standing death wish & oppression. I slept very well . Thank you. The prayer session was effective in releasing layers of things. As Monsignor did the binding /sealing prayers after we rebuked particular spirits,I let out a lot of surprising burps then a huge burp! At last prayer another surprising big burp. My heart feels less burdened and free of emotional attachments.. I have trauma from childhood abuse. It was buried in my memories for years. In the meantime I married an alcoholic narcissist…Last night through [Msgr’s] prayers Immaculate Mary showed me her heart. These monthly evenings are becoming a true blessing in my life. I have been struggling with some depression lately and felt lighter after the session, like it had lifted, which brought me peace. I feel blessed and loved after the session. I could feel the power of Christ moving in me. I constantly battle with the demons of lust and anger, and I could feel them being pushed away. I know that it is a never ending battle here in this world, but we have the key with Jesus. I will be back next month. Peaceful, calming, closeness to God We are praying with my wife, who suffers from oppression (rooted in a generational curse - Freemasonic…) And it is a great help for us. Dizziness and burping, my heart ra[c]ed and headache while praying to Remove Generational Spirits and when you mentioned the prayer to remove Masonry I got chills, in the remove divination [prayer] I felt so tired and Msgr was praying in latin prayers, felt super cold. However, felt warm and cozy in the Litany of Children of God. Felt loved. I was physically relieved of a lot of tension in my body especially chronic pain from a herniated disk in my neck that I have had for over 30 years. I always feel lighter and happier after these amazing sessions. Not only do I experience a sense of being delivered from the evil I unfortunately encountered (via yoga/ an occult energy worker)… I also find that Monsignor Rossetti always teaches me something more about God and the best way to live our life here on Earth. I felt very tired especially during the Latin prayers which I think you said was a good indication that it is helping. I felt a lot better at the end. I felt myself relaxing, feeling sleepy during the hour. This is not typical for me since I often feel anxious and on edge…Some oppression that causes despair was lifted and gone. I felt some things leave. I went to confession yesterday for the first time in 41 years and only for the third time in my whole life and I slept better last night than I usually do…I just want to be free. I haven't felt free in my whole life. I have been so inflicted and felt so rejected finally I feel God and the Church have not abandon[ed] me. Now I feel so blessed all the prayers, all the teachings! It seems as I prepare for the monthly sessions havoc breaks loose and I get tired and something in my body hurts (sinuses, or head or stomach....) but I know God is bigger and wants me to "attend"...Memories of past rough experiences or hurtful people arise and I've been forgiving more and more and asking to be forgiven. I am filled with peace and hope and learning more. Very beautiful. Always peaceful & uplifting. Thank you so much. The prayers were extremely powerful. While the session was going on, my daughter was screaming and sort of growling in the next room. I kept praying for her to receive all the prayers Fr. Stephen was praying with the Keys of St. Peter. I felt lots of movement in my abdomen area during the prayer to be freed from Masonic curses. Total peace. I went into deep sleep at times. The house fills lighter. Always feel strengthened and encouraged! Praise God! Amazing!!! I felt much peace. I believe that a spell or incantation was lifted as I feel more free around the upper part of my body and able to breath with more peace. Excellent! Thank you!!! Once again, I fell into a deep sleep on the floor, but I could hear the prayers on my PC and many times responded. My body would not get up but I wasn't worried because I knew I was in the arms of God… It’s a beautiful experience and I am thankful to God for all of you. I find great comfort throughout most of session…where Father prayed in Latin, there were ugly visions that bombarded my brain. It’s almost as if the enemy was try to mock what was happening. it was excellent, excellent, excellent. I find the prayer session to be amazing. I've never participated in a Deliverance prayer session. My mother, brother and sister are very toxic, narcissistic and abusive towards me (and my father)…I forgive them. Thank you for all of your beautiful prayers and your help A truly blessed and healing experience. I suffered an injury a couple of weeks ago and was in a lot of discomfort, barely able to walk. I attended the SMC online prayer session last night, and this morning, I felt significantly much better! Enlightening. I feel my head is about to explode during Exorcism prayers. I am son of a 33 degree freemason. I only found out about this at last moment, I signed in and was so open. I believe I received a healing. And some of the questions Father answered at the end, I swear they were for me. Especially the one about thinking I wasted my life. This prayer session brought peace and calmness into my soul. Just what I needed. I am coming back to my beautiful Catholic faith…I got into the new age in a big way, meditation, chanting, etc. The beautiful religion I was born into has everything I need and have ever needed. I have depression, yet by the end of the session I had a smile on my face and I felt lifted. Calming peace. Less self condemnation and self doubt I woke up scared and with a dreaded feeling, but knowing that prayer session will help, it was difficult to keep awake during the session but persevered and stayed until the end and this morning I feel totally refreshed It was very uplifting. I was treated more like the servant of my family. Emotionally abused and put down. I took care of both my elderly parents until their death…I wept heavily when I got to the part that I needed to forgive them and my siblings who did not support me enough. Thank You! Wow! That was really good! I felt so broken and mentally tormented today, but I listened to Fr Rossetti and his deliverance prayers & they brought me so much peace At one point last night something in me shifted and I found myself crying - nothing outrageous, not ugly crying, but something very real seemed to release. It felt good and I was grateful to God, and for your ministry. Thank you! I had turned to crystals and meteorites that supposedly had healing properties in the past…I still felt a connection to them…Our Lord Jesus Christ through your ministry has broken the hold they had on me. I began to suspect demonic activity after some seriously troubling activity at our home…Now, after a year of monthly attendance, special session attendance, with participation in the sacraments and holy mass, my personal symptoms are gone and prayers for my parents are working! They returned to church! This was my third session and I love it. It’s the same feeling I have after a good confession…unburdened and peaceful. I had a beautiful experience tonight. I always feel an intensity regarding casting out free masons. My grandfather on my mother's side was a 33 degree. During the session I sensed a strong and powerful influence going to my children and their families so I have a renewed hope for them. I felt really hot at times. And I felt some nasty energies leave me. I also felt very relaxed and focused like I knew wholeheartedly I was doing the right thing. I cried as well during certain points and feel very relieved. I didn’t know what to expect and it was so much more! I was very emotional, I felt free at the end. During the session, where we are to forgive, I was compelled to think of when I was a child: I was made fun of for years. Once Msgr. finished his prayer, I started sobbing uncontrollably - couldn't stop, nor did I want to. It felt so good! Many tears. Very powerful deliverance session…Your ministry is an absolute blessing. Thank you. During the early prayers I realized that the sadness I often feel during formal prayers and mass stem from a sense of failure, regret that my life has not measured up to expectations. The prayers helped me understand that this feeling is not from God… These monthly sessions are SO HELPFUL!!!!
- Exorcist Diary #386: St Joseph in an Exorcism
[St. Joseph casting out the demons. Digitally generated & blessed by priest.] The Feast of St. Joseph is March 19th. He is a greatly under-appreciated spiritual figure. He is rightly called: "Terror of Demons." As St. Alphonsus Liguori said: "Saint Joseph is most powerful against demons which fight against us." I was reminded of this in an exorcism some time ago: A young woman who was afflicted by demons was being ministered to by our St Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal. She shared with us the following. She said that as she was coming to the next exorcism session-- "I felt inside of me an intense hatred of the demons for St Joseph and at the same time I felt a huge protection of St. Joseph for me. I took it as something providential and I realized we should invoke him during the exorcism. When we arrived I asked if it was possible for us to pray the Litany of St. Joseph during the session, which we subsequently did. During the session, the demons greatly manifested when we said 'St. Joseph Terror of Demons'. It was obvious that the demons were being strongly affected by St Joseph and by our prayers asking for his help. I will never forget the hatred of the demons and their desperation when we said the Litany of St Joseph. During that moment I felt his presence and help. In fact, I was granted a vision of St. Joseph at that time. When we invoked his help, I could see him in the room. It is a moment I will never forget.” This young woman is now doing fine and living a holy life. St. Joseph, Terror of Demons, protect the Church and each of us. ------------------------------- +See Supreme Knight Patrick Kelly on St. Joseph Terror of Demons in his March column: here .

Rossetti. It was amazing and so inspiring and it touched my soul! We felt peace and joy… I found out freemasonry was in my family a couple years ago. Evil influence was all around me and my family…I am noticing progress, a great deal of it compared to two years ago, many health issues still but progress continues. A spiritual lifeline in a sea rife with darkness and despair. Great prayers and community! My son…joined us this evening for the entire session. He is now praying the rosary and going to mass. He went to confession for the first time in many years last week. My 1st and It was amazing Peace and calm afterwards thank you! At the beginning of the session, I felt sleepy…After a while I was ok…I felt tingling in my hands and then my feet on and off throughout the session and even after. Many thanks to all at the St. Michael Center. My husband, me and our daughter prayed with you tonight from Switzerland Geneva. I was amazed after the prayers finished our daughter said she felt peace and slept right away and myself I felt the peace of the Lord and His love in my heart. These prayers were so powerful and i felt so much peace after the session… This session was exceptionally great! I experienced so much releasing and freedom throughout the entire hour. Thank you so much Jesus! Since I have started to participate in deliverance sessions I don't experience any sexual urges as I did before. I can say for certain that I have been delivered from sexual addiction I have struggled for years. I feel lighter and spiritually cleansed. I have a very hard life that I cannot even begin to express in words and any little blessing I receive or act of mercy, I am so grateful for it. And I love the prayers Father [said] in the session. It was incredibly powerful. I'm so grateful. This was a truly liberating experience that will help me overcome obsessive patterns… I feel so good praying those special prayers not only for myself but for my family members. For healing. Physically and spiritually…It is the holiest hour of prayer I’ve ever experienced. Thank you for these wonderful services! I’m so grateful to be able to pray with my fellow Christians…Last night, I slept well for the first time in weeks. Tears but a sense of deep peace afterward. I immediately felt free and light. I felt all this oppression left, and the lethargy was much improved after tonight’s session Came to the session feeling overwhelmed. As the prayers began I began to feel sleepy but remembered from previous sessions Monsignor mentioning this so I fought it. When he prayed to lift darkness, I found myself sighing deeply and feeling lighter. I had a greater sense of peace as the session ended. God bless you. I do feel very peaceful…I have been dealing with a financial block on my life. Lots of voodoo in my family and jealousy. So I am so thankful as I wait [for] the Lord. I always feel a tremendous sense of Peace I watched the video this morning…I felt the Lord revealed some demons to me that I'd been holding on to without knowing. I especially needed to hear Msgr. Rossetti explain that no life is wasted. I had been struggling with that, recently. I was praying and hoping for Satan to leave me. I by some grace of God just returned to the Catholic Church last June. I've delved in some satanic rituals online and have committed some satanic sins…I have confessed my sins in confession. He still vexes me…As Fr. was saying the latin prayer My body shook. Helps to encourage me to persevere in the spiritual life, I feel strengthened. I'm a convert to the Catholic Church. My mother's family were very involved in the masons, eastern star etc…I have people in my family who mess around with the occult and I feel more at peace after this session praying and being prayed over about these influences…Thank you so much for this wonderful resource I always feel at peace when the sessions end. Very tired out of nowhere when it started, but the fatigue lifted soon. I felt lighter during several of the deliverance prayers, and I was crying in a healing way for several minutes. My experience has been wonderful and very rewarding. Thank you for this special grace and blessing. …everytime I attend this sessions there will always be an overwhelming lifting of heaviness and pain. I even felt a right shoulder pain and pain on my head during deliverance but was gone after minutes after the prayer. God is always good. These sessions have gotten me closer to the Lord and to my faith I felt peace and courage I could not stop smiling knowing by the power of God through Msgr Rossetti that God loves me and I love him. Very peaceful…I have depression and terrible fear but these sessions help me so much. I sleep better. I can't live without them. I have been doing them for a long time. I can't thank you enough. I love these sessions… Thank you thank you thank you for doing this. Well I vomited a lot…I am from…South America.

- Exorcist Diary #385: Satan's Lone Wolf Terrorists
[ " Jesus casts out the devils " , Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld. Die Bibel in Bildern , Plate 191.] I hesitate to wade into this intense, conflictual arena, but there is something that has been gnawing at me for quite a while. As a priest-exorcist and as a licensed psychologist, I have been looking at the phenomenon, especially in the United States, of the "lone wolf terrorist." These are the ones who are not formally part of a terrorist group, but rather commit acts of terror acting mostly alone. While they are all different and defy one stereotype, there does seem to be some similar characteristics which are particularly striking to someone who is in the exorcism ministry.... Again these lone wolf terrorists are not all the same nor does each one have all of these characteristics, but taken as a whole, one often sees these attributes surface. * No formal psychological diagnosis . Several studies have pointed out that most of these terrorists, almost always male, are not suffering from a major mental illness. It would be easy to dismiss the phenomenon as simply the result of mental illness, but most do not easily fit any such diagnosis. Moreover, there are many mentally ill people in this world and they do not commit acts of terror. Rather, the lone wolf terrorist actually has a "rational" plan of violence and carries it out. It is thought out, planned and executed. It is not a spur of the moment, impulsive act of someone who is having a psychotic break. * Twisted logic. Having said that most are not obviously mentally ill, their thinking is warped and twisted. Reading their manifestos, there is often a convoluted and bizarre thought pattern. Many became radicalized online and, in their isolation, they came came up with a twisted logic to justify their violence. * Socially isolated. Many are socially isolated and some feel socially inept. In their isolation, without grounding their thoughts in the real world, their minds are more easily radicalized. This is a key feature. Isolation breeds problems. * Narcissistic, Grandiose, Lack Empathy . Many show significant features of narcissism. They certainly are self-focused and lack empathy. Killing dozens of innocent people and not being concerned about their welfare and the horrible trauma to their families and friends is very, very self-centered. Their online manifestos are typically grandiose. They believe they are making a statement to the world. * Underlying Woundedness & Feeling Victimized . Narcissists often have an underlying "narcissistic wound" which they cover over with their own grandiosity. As one study noted, these terrorists have "an exaggerated sense of self-importance." Many lone wolf terrorists feel they have been victimized. They are emotionally wounded and their lives seemingly unimportant and meaningless. Their thinking galvanizes around a cause and their self-importance is wrapped up in their terrorist act and manifesto. * Acting Out Rage and Violence . While not always manifest, shooting innocent people is, I believe, often a violent act stemming from an inner rage. Certainly it is not a peaceful act. Causing such destruction and death bespeaks of violence and rage. It seems that such acts are most often perpetrated by males, who are more likely to violently act out their inner rage, rather than turning it inward into a depression, anxiety or other internal dysphoria. As an exorcist, when I look at these symptoms, something leaps out of the page. These dynamics are typical of demons and, of course, Satan himself. Satan sees himself as the wronged victim. He blames God for his plight. He is consumed with rage and a desire for revenge. His twisted logic is bizarre. He channels his inner rage toward others in a desire to destroy. He does not care about the destruction he causes to others. In fact, causing pain to others is part of his plan; he delights in other's suffering. He is the ultimate malignant narcissist. Certainly, lone wolf terrorists are doing Satan's work. They are his minions whether they know it or not. And their actions confirm it. Going into a school and murdering innocent children is an act of pure evil. We need to call it what it is. And a portion of the media are starting to call it just that. They are starting to recognize that such acts are EVIL. This does not mean that these terrorists are necessarily possessed. One does not need to be possessed to be doing Satan's will. But the Evil One is certainly whispering in their ears and goading them into such violent actions. The rapid escalation of such actions in recent years suggest that Satan's influence, at least in a portion of the population, is increasing. These violent acts are a symptom of a portion of the society which has fallen under the sway of Satan. Having said that, it is important not to sweep away human culpability and simply blame it all on Satan. In the end, Satan cannot make us sin. We retain our free will and we are responsible for our own sins. The serpent whispered his deceits to Eve, but she took and ate the apple. If what I am hypothesizing is true, then as the rate of those practicing the Faith declines, the rate of Satanic acts of violence will increase. But I am heartened by the recent rise of faith among Gen Z and I hope that their prayers and faith will help to stem the tide of violence. Identifying those at risk for violence is critical. There are some warning signs, a few such noted above, which can alert professionals. Building healthy relationships, a vibrant faith, and a strong faith community are important antidotes to lone wolf terrorism. Ultimately, there is only one way to successfully conquer Satan and that is the God-man Jesus Christ. ---------------------------- +Our LENTEN RETREAT is Saturday, March 14th from 11am to 1pm.

He went to confession for the first time in many years last week. My 1st and It was amazing Peace and calm afterwards thank you! At the beginning of the session, I felt sleepy…After a while I was ok…I felt tingling in my hands and then my feet on and off throughout the session and even after. Many thanks to all at the St. Michael Center. My husband, me and our daughter prayed with you tonight from Switzerland Geneva. I was amazed after the prayers finished our daughter said she felt peace and slept right away and myself I felt the peace of the Lord and His love in my heart. These prayers were so powerful and i felt so much peace after the session… This session was exceptionally great! I experienced so much releasing and freedom throughout the entire hour. Thank you so much Jesus! Since I have started to participate in deliverance sessions I don't experience any sexual urges as I did before. I can say for certain that I have been delivered from sexual addiction I have struggled for years. I feel lighter and spiritually cleansed. I have a very hard life that I cannot even begin to express in words and any little blessing I receive or act of mercy, I am so grateful for it. And I love the prayers Father [said] in the session. It was incredibly powerful. I'm so grateful. This was a truly liberating experience that will help me overcome obsessive patterns… I feel so good praying those special prayers not only for myself but for my family members. For healing. Physically and spiritually…It is the holiest hour of prayer I’ve ever experienced. Thank you for these wonderful services! I’m so grateful to be able to pray with my fellow Christians…Last night, I slept well for the first time in weeks. Tears but a sense of deep peace afterward. I immediately felt free and light. I felt all this oppression left, and the lethargy was much improved after tonight’s session Came to the session feeling overwhelmed. As the prayers began I began to feel sleepy but remembered from previous sessions Monsignor mentioning this so I fought it. When he prayed to lift darkness, I found myself sighing deeply and feeling lighter. I had a greater sense of peace as the session ended. God bless you. I do feel very peaceful…I have been dealing with a financial block on my life. Lots of voodoo in my family and jealousy. So I am so thankful as I wait [for] the Lord. I always feel a tremendous sense of Peace I watched the video this morning…I felt the Lord revealed some demons to me that I'd been holding on to without knowing. I especially needed to hear Msgr. Rossetti explain that no life is wasted. I had been struggling with that, recently. I was praying and hoping for Satan to leave me. I by some grace of God just returned to the Catholic Church last June. I've delved in some satanic rituals online and have committed some satanic sins…I have confessed my sins in confession. He still vexes me…As Fr. was saying the latin prayer My body shook. Helps to encourage me to persevere in the spiritual life, I feel strengthened. I'm a convert to the Catholic Church. My mother's family were very involved in the masons, eastern star etc…I have people in my family who mess around with the occult and I feel more at peace after this session praying and being prayed over about these influences…Thank you so much for this wonderful resource I always feel at peace when the sessions end. Very tired out of nowhere when it started, but the fatigue lifted soon. I felt lighter during several of the deliverance prayers, and I was crying in a healing way for several minutes. My experience has been wonderful and very rewarding. Thank you for this special grace and blessing. …everytime I attend this sessions there will always be an overwhelming lifting of heaviness and pain. I even felt a right shoulder pain and pain on my head during deliverance but was gone after minutes after the prayer. God is always good. These sessions have gotten me closer to the Lord and to my faith I felt peace and courage I could not stop smiling knowing by the power of God through Msgr Rossetti that God loves me and I love him. Very peaceful…I have depression and terrible fear but these sessions help me so much. I sleep better. I can't live without them. I have been doing them for a long time. I can't thank you enough. I love these sessions… Thank you thank you thank you for doing this. Well I vomited a lot…I am from…South America. I suffered sexual abuse when I was child so when you said that demons I have manifestations in my body like nauseas. It has been very difficult to liberate me and my child of the incest in my family and its consequences. Excellent and overwhelming peace afterwards I think I was delivered from self hatred, shame & a long standing death wish & oppression. I slept very well . Thank you. The prayer session was effective in releasing layers of things. As Monsignor did the binding /sealing prayers after we rebuked particular spirits,I let out a lot of surprising burps then a huge burp! At last prayer another surprising big burp. My heart feels less burdened and free of emotional attachments.. I have trauma from childhood abuse. It was buried in my memories for years. In the meantime I married an alcoholic narcissist…Last night through [Msgr’s] prayers Immaculate Mary showed me her heart. These monthly evenings are becoming a true blessing in my life. I have been struggling with some depression lately and felt lighter after the session, like it had lifted, which brought me peace. I feel blessed and loved after the session. I could feel the power of Christ moving in me. I constantly battle with the demons of lust and anger, and I could feel them being pushed away. I know that it is a never ending battle here in this world, but we have the key with Jesus. I will be back next month. Peaceful, calming, closeness to God We are praying with my wife, who suffers from oppression (rooted in a generational curse - Freemasonic…) And it is a great help for us. Dizziness and burping, my heart ra[c]ed and headache while praying to Remove Generational Spirits and when you mentioned the prayer to remove Masonry I got chills, in the remove divination [prayer] I felt so tired and Msgr was praying in latin prayers, felt super cold. However, felt warm and cozy in the Litany of Children of God. Felt loved. I was physically relieved of a lot of tension in my body especially chronic pain from a herniated disk in my neck that I have had for over 30 years. I always feel lighter and happier after these amazing sessions. Not only do I experience a sense of being delivered from the evil I unfortunately encountered (via yoga/ an occult energy worker)… I also find that Monsignor Rossetti always teaches me something more about God and the best way to live our life here on Earth. I felt very tired especially during the Latin prayers which I think you said was a good indication that it is helping. I felt a lot better at the end. I felt myself relaxing, feeling sleepy during the hour. This is not typical for me since I often feel anxious and on edge…Some oppression that causes despair was lifted and gone. I felt some things leave. I went to confession yesterday for the first time in 41 years and only for the third time in my whole life and I slept better last night than I usually do…I just want to be free. I haven't felt free in my whole life. I have been so inflicted and felt so rejected finally I feel God and the Church have not abandon[ed] me. Now I feel so blessed all the prayers, all the teachings! It seems as I prepare for the monthly sessions havoc breaks loose and I get tired and something in my body hurts (sinuses, or head or stomach....) but I know God is bigger and wants me to "attend"...Memories of past rough experiences or hurtful people arise and I've been forgiving more and more and asking to be forgiven. I am filled with peace and hope and learning more. Very beautiful. Always peaceful & uplifting. Thank you so much. The prayers were extremely powerful. While the session was going on, my daughter was screaming and sort of growling in the next room. I kept praying for her to receive all the prayers Fr. Stephen was praying with the Keys of St. Peter. I felt lots of movement in my abdomen area during the prayer to be freed from Masonic curses. Total peace. I went into deep sleep at times. The house fills lighter. Always feel strengthened and encouraged! Praise God! Amazing!!! I felt much peace. I believe that a spell or incantation was lifted as I feel more free around the upper part of my body and able to breath with more peace. Excellent! Thank you!!! Once again, I fell into a deep sleep on the floor, but I could hear the prayers on my PC and many times responded. My body would not get up but I wasn't worried because I knew I was in the arms of God… It’s a beautiful experience and I am thankful to God for all of you. I find great comfort throughout most of session…where Father prayed in Latin, there were ugly visions that bombarded my brain. It’s almost as if the enemy was try to mock what was happening. it was excellent, excellent, excellent. I find the prayer session to be amazing. I've never participated in a Deliverance prayer session. My mother, brother and sister are very toxic, narcissistic and abusive towards me (and my father)…I forgive them. Thank you for all of your beautiful prayers and your help A truly blessed and healing experience. I suffered an injury a couple of weeks ago and was in a lot of discomfort, barely able to walk. I attended the SMC online prayer session last night, and this morning, I felt significantly much better! Enlightening. I feel my head is about to explode during Exorcism prayers. I am son of a 33 degree freemason. I only found out about this at last moment, I signed in and was so open. I believe I received a healing. And some of the questions Father answered at the end, I swear they were for me. Especially the one about thinking I wasted my life. This prayer session brought peace and calmness into my soul. Just what I needed. I am coming back to my beautiful Catholic faith…I got into the new age in a big way, meditation, chanting, etc. The beautiful religion I was born into has everything I need and have ever needed. I have depression, yet by the end of the session I had a smile on my face and I felt lifted. Calming peace. Less self condemnation and self doubt I woke up scared and with a dreaded feeling, but knowing that prayer session will help, it was difficult to keep awake during the session but persevered and stayed until the end and this morning I feel totally refreshed It was very uplifting. I was treated more like the servant of my family. Emotionally abused and put down. I took care of both my elderly parents until their death…I wept heavily when I got to the part that I needed to forgive them and my siblings who did not support me enough. Thank You! Wow! That was really good! I felt so broken and mentally tormented today, but I listened to Fr Rossetti and his deliverance prayers & they brought me so much peace At one point last night something in me shifted and I found myself crying - nothing outrageous, not ugly crying, but something very real seemed to release. It felt good and I was grateful to God, and for your ministry. Thank you! I had turned to crystals and meteorites that supposedly had healing properties in the past…I still felt a connection to them…Our Lord Jesus Christ through your ministry has broken the hold they had on me. I began to suspect demonic activity after some seriously troubling activity at our home…Now, after a year of monthly attendance, special session attendance, with participation in the sacraments and holy mass, my personal symptoms are gone and prayers for my parents are working! They returned to church! This was my third session and I love it. It’s the same feeling I have after a good confession…unburdened and peaceful. I had a beautiful experience tonight. I always feel an intensity regarding casting out free masons. My grandfather on my mother's side was a 33 degree. During the session I sensed a strong and powerful influence going to my children and their families so I have a renewed hope for them. I felt really hot at times. And I felt some nasty energies leave me. I also felt very relaxed and focused like I knew wholeheartedly I was doing the right thing. I cried as well during certain points and feel very relieved. I didn’t know what to expect and it was so much more! I was very emotional, I felt free at the end. During the session, where we are to forgive, I was compelled to think of when I was a child: I was made fun of for years. Once Msgr. finished his prayer, I started sobbing uncontrollably - couldn't stop, nor did I want to. It felt so good! Many tears. Very powerful deliverance session…Your ministry is an absolute blessing. Thank you. During the early prayers I realized that the sadness I often feel during formal prayers and mass stem from a sense of failure, regret that my life has not measured up to expectations. The prayers helped me understand that this feeling is not from God… These monthly sessions are SO HELPFUL!!!!
- Exorcist Diary #384: The Darkness of Hell
[" Light of the World ," William Holman Hunt, 1851-1854; Jesus is knocking on our door and asks to be let in. The door is overgrown and has not been opened in a long time. ] Recently I was told of a couple that had left the Faith and went full speed into pagan religions. They traveled to non-Christian religious sites in Asia, practiced TM and yoga, and embraced their teachings and spiritual practices. As they were doing this, their friends noticed they slowly became more dark and miserable. They were difficult to be around, dragging down the mood in the room. But eventually, they returned to their Catholic faith. Their friends noted a remarkable shift. The couple seemed lighter and happier. The darkness that surrounded them was gone. It was a joy to have them again as part of their circle of friends. I was not surprised by their experience. Those who come to us for help after leaving the Faith and practicing pagan religions and/or the occult for years seem shrouded in darkness. The light in their eyes has dimmed. Their minds are now in a dark place. It 's a miracle of grace when people turn away from this slow descent into hell. It's a great grace that they even realize the problem since their consciousness is clouded over and their intellects impaired. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." (Jn 8:12). A powerful symbol of this is found in the Transfiguration when "his face shone like the sun and his clothes became white as light" (Mt 17:2). Heaven will be full of light which will be the divinity of God (Rev 22:5). "God is light, and in h im there is no darkness" (1 Jn 1:5). And conversely hell is a dark, dark place, devoid of the divine presence. Indeed, every true mystic-saint who has had a graced experience of hell describes it as a dark place, devoid of light, and demons being blacker than black. But this darkness is not an absence of sunlight; it is the absence of the true Light of the World, and the demons' darkness is the utter blackness of sin. Little wonder those who stray from the Faith and descend in the occult world become shrouded in darkness. It's Lent. Its time to turn ever more fervently toward the true Light. Go to confession to "scrub away" some of that darkness that clings to us all. Open your hearts to the true Light of the World, Jesus Christ. You, too, will find the darkness lifting and the joy of God filling your hearts. -------------- +See Exorcist Diary #238: Demons of Darkness . ++Our LENTEN RETREAT is Saturday, March 14th from 11am to 1pm.

Rossetti. It was amazing and so inspiring and it touched my soul! We felt peace and joy… I found out freemasonry was in my family a couple years ago. Evil influence was all around me and my family…I am noticing progress, a great deal of it compared to two years ago, many health issues still but progress continues.

- Exorcist Diary #383: Can AI replace an Exorcist?
[" St. Francis Borgia Helping a Dying Impenitent ," Francisco Goya, 1788] I was recently asked by a reporter if I thought that AI could replace an exorcist. At first, I thought it was a crazy question, but deeper reflection is warranted. A few days ago I was told by an airline pilot that autopilots already land planes better than humans. He thought AI could replace pilots. He added: "Take away pilot error and accidents would be extremely rare." Similarly, an MD radiologist told us: Bots read mammograms much better already." So, what about exorcists? This question cuts to the heart of what an exorcism is. Casting out demons is not a mechanical function. An exorcist does not simply say the proper prayers and use the right sacramentals. It is a personal encounter. In the person of the Exorcist, with his delegated ministry from the Church, the demons encounter the power and the person of Jesus Christ. It is only Jesus who can cast out demons; only Jesus has conquered the "strong man," ie, Satan (Mt 12:29). Moreover, sacramentals like holy water, crucifixes, relics of saints and so forth, which the Exorcist uses, are conduits of actual graces given ex opere operantis, ie, the faith of those involved is key. The Rite of Exorcism is itself a sacramental. Thus the faith of the participants using the Church's sacramentals is critical. When someone puts a crucifix over their bed, it is not a magic talisman. Rather, it is an expression of the person's faith, however imperfect. Faith opens the soul to God's work and helps to make it fruitful in the person's life. If a bot were to hold up a blessed crucifix and sprinkle an afflicted person with holy water, would it have any effect on a demonic presence? This is an interesting and complex question. Certainly a bot in itself cannot have a living faith. Although one could imagine that the faith of the priest who initially blessed the water and crucifix, combined with the faith of the afflicted person, could make the act somewhat fruitful. But in this case the bot is just an impersonal structure holding up the crucifix and sprinkling the holy water. Even so, it would certainly be less desirable than having a priest in person using these sacramentals. In an exorcism, it is a consistent experience that demons HATE the presence of the priest, and, at the same time, it terrifies them. Demons are terrified of Jesus and his Church, which the priest makes present. No bot could ever do this. I could imagine that AI might be somewhat helpful if a person's background information and comprehensive intake form were fed into the computer to be analyzed. Like analyzing a mammogram, I could well imagine that the computer would provide some helpful insights and even recommended prayers for a session. However, even here, the role of AI is limited. Over the years, I have found that diagnosis in a possible case of demonic affliction transcends analyzing all the information. There is a "taste" and an "inner experience" the Exorcist has when confronting a demonically afflicted person which is critical in making the right diagnosis. Discernment must remain not only a human function, but a function which is fueled by grace given by Christ to the Church. Will I be replaced by a bot or AI? No. However, I am not adverse to being open to computer assistance. But this must be monitored since the Evil One loves to mess with and manipulate technology. Jesus is Lord and so we trust in Him to guide and protect us in this new, very challenging era of technology. ---------------------------------- +Did you see Dr. Yvonne Masakowski, an AI expert, speak on the dangers of AI?

Rossetti. It was amazing and so inspiring and it touched my soul! We felt peace and joy… I found out freemasonry was in my family a couple years ago. Evil influence was all around me and my family…I am noticing progress, a great deal of it compared to two years ago, many health issues still but progress continues. A spiritual lifeline in a sea rife with darkness and despair. Great prayers and community! My son…joined us this evening for the entire session. He is now praying the rosary and going to mass. He went to confession for the first time in many years last week. My 1st and It was amazing Peace and calm afterwards thank you! At the beginning of the session, I felt sleepy…After a while I was ok…I felt tingling in my hands and then my feet on and off throughout the session and even after. Many thanks to all at the St. Michael Center. My husband, me and our daughter prayed with you tonight from Switzerland Geneva. I was amazed after the prayers finished our daughter said she felt peace and slept right away and myself I felt the peace of the Lord and His love in my heart. These prayers were so powerful and i felt so much peace after the session… This session was exceptionally great! I experienced so much releasing and freedom throughout the entire hour. Thank you so much Jesus! Since I have started to participate in deliverance sessions I don't experience any sexual urges as I did before. I can say for certain that I have been delivered from sexual addiction I have struggled for years. I feel lighter and spiritually cleansed. I have a very hard life that I cannot even begin to express in words and any little blessing I receive or act of mercy, I am so grateful for it. And I love the prayers Father [said] in the session. It was incredibly powerful. I'm so grateful. This was a truly liberating experience that will help me overcome obsessive patterns… I feel so good praying those special prayers not only for myself but for my family members. For healing. Physically and spiritually…It is the holiest hour of prayer I’ve ever experienced. Thank you for these wonderful services! I’m so grateful to be able to pray with my fellow Christians…Last night, I slept well for the first time in weeks. Tears but a sense of deep peace afterward. I immediately felt free and light. I felt all this oppression left, and the lethargy was much improved after tonight’s session Came to the session feeling overwhelmed. As the prayers began I began to feel sleepy but remembered from previous sessions Monsignor mentioning this so I fought it. When he prayed to lift darkness, I found myself sighing deeply and feeling lighter. I had a greater sense of peace as the session ended. God bless you. I do feel very peaceful…I have been dealing with a financial block on my life. Lots of voodoo in my family and jealousy. So I am so thankful as I wait [for] the Lord. I always feel a tremendous sense of Peace I watched the video this morning…I felt the Lord revealed some demons to me that I'd been holding on to without knowing. I especially needed to hear Msgr. Rossetti explain that no life is wasted. I had been struggling with that, recently. I was praying and hoping for Satan to leave me. I by some grace of God just returned to the Catholic Church last June. I've delved in some satanic rituals online and have committed some satanic sins…I have confessed my sins in confession. He still vexes me…As Fr. was saying the latin prayer My body shook. Helps to encourage me to persevere in the spiritual life, I feel strengthened. I'm a convert to the Catholic Church. My mother's family were very involved in the masons, eastern star etc…I have people in my family who mess around with the occult and I feel more at peace after this session praying and being prayed over about these influences…Thank you so much for this wonderful resource I always feel at peace when the sessions end. Very tired out of nowhere when it started, but the fatigue lifted soon. I felt lighter during several of the deliverance prayers, and I was crying in a healing way for several minutes. My experience has been wonderful and very rewarding. Thank you for this special grace and blessing. …everytime I attend this sessions there will always be an overwhelming lifting of heaviness and pain. I even felt a right shoulder pain and pain on my head during deliverance but was gone after minutes after the prayer. God is always good. These sessions have gotten me closer to the Lord and to my faith I felt peace and courage I could not stop smiling knowing by the power of God through Msgr Rossetti that God loves me and I love him. Very peaceful…I have depression and terrible fear but these sessions help me so much. I sleep better. I can't live without them. I have been doing them for a long time. I can't thank you enough. I love these sessions… Thank you thank you thank you for doing this. Well I vomited a lot…I am from…South America. I suffered sexual abuse when I was child so when you said that demons I have manifestations in my body like nauseas. It has been very difficult to liberate me and my child of the incest in my family and its consequences. Excellent and overwhelming peace afterwards I think I was delivered from self hatred, shame & a long standing death wish & oppression. I slept very well . Thank you. The prayer session was effective in releasing layers of things. As Monsignor did the binding /sealing prayers after we rebuked particular spirits,I let out a lot of surprising burps then a huge burp! At last prayer another surprising big burp. My heart feels less burdened and free of emotional attachments.. I have trauma from childhood abuse. It was buried in my memories for years. In the meantime I married an alcoholic narcissist…Last night through [Msgr’s] prayers Immaculate Mary showed me her heart. These monthly evenings are becoming a true blessing in my life. I have been struggling with some depression lately and felt lighter after the session, like it had lifted, which brought me peace. I feel blessed and loved after the session. I could feel the power of Christ moving in me. I constantly battle with the demons of lust and anger, and I could feel them being pushed away. I know that it is a never ending battle here in this world, but we have the key with Jesus. I will be back next month. Peaceful, calming, closeness to God We are praying with my wife, who suffers from oppression (rooted in a generational curse - Freemasonic…) And it is a great help for us. Dizziness and burping, my heart ra[c]ed and headache while praying to Remove Generational Spirits and when you mentioned the prayer to remove Masonry I got chills, in the remove divination [prayer] I felt so tired and Msgr was praying in latin prayers, felt super cold. However, felt warm and cozy in the Litany of Children of God. Felt loved. I was physically relieved of a lot of tension in my body especially chronic pain from a herniated disk in my neck that I have had for over 30 years. I always feel lighter and happier after these amazing sessions. Not only do I experience a sense of being delivered from the evil I unfortunately encountered (via yoga/ an occult energy worker)… I also find that Monsignor Rossetti always teaches me something more about God and the best way to live our life here on Earth. I felt very tired especially during the Latin prayers which I think you said was a good indication that it is helping. I felt a lot better at the end. I felt myself relaxing, feeling sleepy during the hour. This is not typical for me since I often feel anxious and on edge…Some oppression that causes despair was lifted and gone. I felt some things leave. I went to confession yesterday for the first time in 41 years and only for the third time in my whole life and I slept better last night than I usually do…I just want to be free. I haven't felt free in my whole life. I have been so inflicted and felt so rejected _ finally I feel God and the Church have not abandon[ed] me. Now I feel so blessed _ all the prayers, all the teachings! It seems as I prepare for the monthly sessions havoc breaks loose and I get tired and something in my body hurts (sinuses, or head or stomach....) but I know God is bigger and wants me to "attend"...Memories of past rough experiences or hurtful people arise and I've been forgiving more and more and asking to be forgiven. I am filled with peace and hope and learning more. Very beautiful. Always peaceful & uplifting. Thank you so much. The prayers were extremely powerful. While the session was going on, my daughter was screaming and sort of growling in the next room. I kept praying for her to receive all the prayers Fr. Stephen was praying with the Keys of St. Peter. I felt lots of movement in my abdomen area during the prayer to be freed from Masonic curses. Total peace. I went into deep sleep at times. The house fills lighter. Always feel strengthened and encouraged! Praise God! Amazing!!! I felt much peace. I believe that a spell or incantation was lifted as I feel more free around the upper part of my body and able to breath with more peace. Excellent! Thank you!!! Once again, I fell into a deep sleep on the floor, but I could hear the prayers on my PC and many times responded. My body would not get up but I wasn't worried because I knew I was in the arms of God… It’s a beautiful experience and I am thankful to God for all of you. I find great comfort throughout most of session…where Father prayed in Latin, there were ugly visions that bombarded my brain. It’s almost as if the enemy was try to mock what was happening. it was excellent, excellent, excellent. I find the prayer session to be amazing. I've never participated in a Deliverance prayer session. My mother, brother and sister are very toxic, narcissistic and abusive towards me (and my father)…I forgive them. Thank you for all of your beautiful prayers and your help A truly blessed and healing experience. I suffered an injury a couple of weeks ago and was in a lot of discomfort, barely able to walk. I attended the SMC online prayer session last night, and this morning, I felt significantly much better! Enlightening. I feel my head is about to explode during Exorcism prayers. I am son of a 33 degree freemason. I only found out about this at last moment, I signed in and was so open. I believe I received a healing. And some of the questions Father answered at the end, I swear they were for me. Especially the one about thinking I wasted my life. This prayer session brought peace and calmness into my soul. Just what I needed. I am coming back to my beautiful Catholic faith…I got into the new age in a big way, meditation, chanting, etc. The beautiful religion I was born into has everything I need and have ever needed. I have depression, yet by the end of the session I had a smile on my face and I felt lifted. Calming peace. Less self condemnation and self doubt I woke up scared and with a dreaded feeling, but knowing that prayer session will help, it was difficult to keep awake during the session but persevered and stayed until the end and this morning I feel totally refreshed It was very uplifting. I was treated more like the servant of my family. Emotionally abused and put down. I took care of both my elderly parents until their death…I wept heavily when I got to the part that I needed to forgive them and my siblings who did not support me enough. Thank You! Wow! That was really good! I felt so broken and mentally tormented today, but I listened to Fr Rossetti and his deliverance prayers & they brought me so much peace At one point last night something in me shifted and I found myself crying - nothing outrageous, not ugly crying, but something very real seemed to release. It felt good and I was grateful to God, and for your ministry. Thank you! I had turned to crystals and meteorites that supposedly had healing properties in the past…I still felt a connection to them…Our Lord Jesus Christ through your ministry has broken the hold they had on me. I began to suspect demonic activity after some seriously troubling activity at our home…Now, after a year of monthly attendance, special session attendance, with participation in the sacraments and holy mass, my personal symptoms are gone and prayers for my parents are working! They returned to church! This was my third session and I love it. It’s the same feeling I have after a good confession…unburdened and peaceful. I had a beautiful experience tonight. I always feel an intensity regarding casting out free masons. My grandfather on my mother's side was a 33 degree. During the session I sensed a strong and powerful influence going to my children and their families so I have a renewed hope for them. I felt really hot at times. And I felt some nasty energies leave me. I also felt very relaxed and focused like I knew wholeheartedly I was doing the right thing. I cried as well during certain points and feel very relieved. I didn’t know what to expect and it was so much more! I was very emotional, I felt free at the end. During the session, where we are to forgive, I was compelled to think of when I was a child: I was made fun of for years. Once Msgr. finished his prayer, I started sobbing uncontrollably - couldn't stop, nor did I want to. It felt so good! Many tears. Very powerful deliverance session…Your ministry is an absolute blessing. Thank you. During the early prayers I realized that the sadness I often feel during formal prayers and mass stem from a sense of failure, regret that my life has not measured up to expectations. The prayers helped me understand that this feeling is not from God… These monthly sessions are SO HELPFUL!!!!
- Exorcist Diary #382: Demons Feel Entitled
[" Grace ," photograph by Eric Enstrom] Theologians tell us that Satan and his demons fell due to pride and envy-- God would become a man and not an angel. Thus, humans will have something that the angels would not. Despite being dazzlingly beautiful and powerful, Satan wanted more. As perhaps the highest of angels, he felt entitled. And legions of demons followed him. I was in an exorcism and demanding the demons to leave. After the person renewed baptismal promises and rejected Satan, I said to the demons: "In Jesus' name, do you have any authority over this person? Tell the truth." The demons snarled their response: "No." "Does she want you to be here?" I demanded. Again, their snarling response: "No." "Do you any right to be here?" I demanded again. "No," they snarled. "You are a thief and a robber," I responded, quoting John 10:8, "In Jesus name I command you to leave." Of course they did not leave voluntarily and eventually had to be forced to leave by the power of Christ. Satan and his demons wanted more than what was given them. They felt entitled and they grasped for more. Instead of gratitude for their incredible gifts, they wanted more and they reached out to grab it. In the process, they lost everything. The heart of the follower of Jesus is gratitude, which increases with each passing day. Heaven will be for them a place of joy to thank God for His infinite blessings and graces. Christians willingly accept such graces as they truly are: unwarranted gifts. We are not entitled to them. Much of the strife in today's world might be traced back to a similar sense of entitlement, grasping for control and for more. No wonder that the hallmark of Satan's presence is discord, distrust and conflict. "I want more" is Satan's refrain. "Thank you Lord" is the hymn of heaven. The antidote to much conflict today is gratitude. To see all that God gives us as gift. We only need to accept it with love and thanks. ---------------------------------- + The next Online deliverance session is this Monday Feb 9th at 7-8pm Eastern USA time with rosary at 6:30pm.

Your videos and the prayer session are helping me find some peace Lovely experience! I shed a lot of tears, especially for the first portion. And also a lot of smiles. My soul feels at peace. Thank you and Hallelujah. Very helpful for me! I am committed to staying in a rocky marriage. Husband has severe PTSD at times…I am a recovering alcoholic & addict…Both Grandparents Freemasonry…abortions, etc. I came away with a greater understanding of forgiveness and little closer to trusting. This was my first session, and I was a few minutes late, but I loved it! There were times that I felt dizzy and scared, but I continued praying and felt a lot better. I LOVED the Q&A right after. I can't wait for the next session. For anyone reading this, do not hesitate, join the next one! I thought the prayers tonight were very thorough and I sensed a presence leave me! I feel so light and peaceful, a taste of the joy I’ve been starving for for years. I felt so peaceful and full of gratitude for God and for you and your team Monsignor. Joy-filled. This is my first time to attend a live Deliverance Prayer…I was yawning a lot at the start & felt tired but at the end of the session felt like I had a surge of energy. I recently disconnected from a friend who started telling me she had a divination degree. She started getting angry with me and I decided to disengage with her. I felt a clearing from this session. Sessions so helpful, felt deep peace. I felt a great relief in the prayer of binding evil spirits and something leaving me after 2nd round of prayer of the generational spirit. This is the first time I could feel the noticeable changes in me from a prayer session. I've been participating in the Deliverance sessions for over a year. Today I felt a deep peace that I haven't felt before…looking forward to the next session! These monthly sessions, the retreats as well as the Pray with Me videos (daily) have changed my life. They have given me hope when I was close to despair. I have been struggling with forgiveness for a while and this experience was simply amazing. During this experience a headache came on and it was suddenly gone by the end of it and I just felt astonished about how peaceful I felt by the end of this prayer session and I am looking forward to the next one. My husband and I loved it! We always feel peace. These sessions have been profoundly healing for me….i have struggled with addictions and family childhood trauma……uncovered in a session a trauma I had buried: I was 8. In an unholy rage I cursed myself wishing I had never been born….it ruptured my heart. I had buried that “hole” the prayer sessions have helped tremendously….Thank you Jesus! Felt lighter personally as if something was lifted out from me. A great peace filled my entire heart and soul. I prayed tonight especially for healing of a sense of abandonment that has been with me for a long time. The Lord brought to mind the day my youngest brother was stillborn, many years ago. I wept most of the session - I did not know his passing had hurt me so much. The Lord healed me of a grief that I have carried so many years without knowing. Like a ton of weight was lifted from my soul. I’m not possessed but experience a great deal of demonic torment due to past trauma…these sessions do make me feel better for a little while and gives me the right tool set to fight and know that I am victorious in Christ. God has a plan for me and my suffering has not been wasted. I feel a little less anxious and more at peace with myself.I am learning to be More forgiving wit h myself. It 's the best eve ning of my month. Deeply powerful right now. Finally realizing that my many childhood "sins" were not mine but were my parents abuse of me as a little innocent girl. A very peaceful experience. My husband and I did it together. That in itself is a miracle. We have had alot of oppression. During the prayers to remove curses, I felt a pulling in my lower back, like my skin was being pulled up. During certain prayers, my husband's vision got blurry several times, and at some points he said he got " tunnel vision." He felt sick with lifting the generational curses. After the session we feel united and fortified and more peaceful. It was awesome I joined the deliverance session and after the prayers Monsignor said for us I felt much better, I woke up earlier than usual today and felt more energetic than I had in a long time. I felt a little dizzy a little nauseous at first [a] little tired, but once it was over and [F]ather gave the final blessing i felt lighter, more energy and more hopeful, thank you all. It was cleansing. I feel more calm and peace inside. Truly felt the peace that surpasses understanding tonight. When Father was praying my heart was burning. I have been attending for nearly two years and these sessions saved my marriage and family. We had a curse placed on us that was so destructive for many years. I did not know where to turn. Over time, hearts were softened, addictions eradicated and love renewed. Eternally grateful A friend told me about this and all I can say is I am blown out of my socks! …I can’t even describe the feeling. It’s amazing. Loved it, very healing!! Wow!!!!! What a powerful deliverance session today! Wow. I love these sessions. I think the world needs them. As usual I feel a total sense of peace and surrender to God. Absolutely wonderful. I feel lighter. Fantastic! Loved it. I have been struggling with mental anxiety, stress and depression. I know anxiety is not from the Lord. I am praying Jesus I trust in you take care of everything in complete surrender. The struggle is real. I felt peace and my anxiety faded away. Today was stressful and things were very scattered when I was trying to get into the session but by the end of the session I felt so much happier and so much more relaxed there was a lot of yawning during the Freemasonry bit. I always receive the gift of peace after these prayer sessions. Lots of tears this evening. but also waves of peace and calm. thank you for these sessions Monsignor Rossetti, much needed in these difficult times. The session was so powerful. Like peeling layers off an onion, each session seems to remove more oppressive stuff. I felt such incredible peace afterwards and truly held by God. I have been struggling with a severe porn addiction made worse by AI allowing the porn to be tailored to my sinful desires & look like women from my past & present. W/God's help, I cleared the material from my phone before the session. During the session, I felt the oppression I've been feeling for months lift & the ache in my heart that pushed me towards this addiction start to heal, especially when praying against the spirits of unforgiveness & lust. These sessions remind me to keep giving Him gratitude and to remain in the certitude that He [God] is at work somehow. Wonderful. I feel loved and blessed Great session..I feel peaceful and like I’m going to get a good night’s sleep :)). Hope filled, renewed and grateful, thank you! It was extremely powerful. The new prayers seemed to have a lifting effect as if something were detached and lifted off. In addition, the prayers to lift curses & seals was very powerful. I cannot thank you enough. I feel safe, protected and loved. Another amazing, healing, liberating and grace-filled experience. It is hard to believe that these online deliverance prayers actually work, but they do! When Msgr. Rossetti prayed to cast out the demon of lethargy, I immediately felt lighter. When he prayed for family unity which I have grieved about for the past few years, I cried. I feel physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually cleaner, lighter, freer and more peaceful after these sessions. My husband and I prayed together, and we both felt a great sense of peace and joy. Little by little - I see a difference in my life. My home is more peaceful and that is the most important thing to me. Outstanding. There was a brief sensation of throat tightness and goosebumps during the prayer session, followed by a light and relaxed feeling afterward.THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I needed it so badly. Everything lately seems to go wrong way…eating disorder…finances…husband talking about suicide…and the air in my house seemed almost heavy. When I prayed two of my younger kids had irrational tantrum anger outburst till the end of the prayers. After this session, my mind was clear and I felt as if a weight had been lifted with a general sense of calm and peace. Wow. The deliverance portion is very powerful! Almost as soon as it started, when we are rebuking and renouncing, I started coughing and my body would shake and make movements all of a sudden, especially when Monsignor prayed with the cross in his hand. Then halfway through the deliverance section, I started hiccuping (I almost never hiccup) and I couldn't stop until the livestream stopped. Literally as soon as it stopped the hiccuping stopped! Over the course of a year, these sessions have truly helped me in healing from both childhood & emotional wounds. I'm realizing how loved I am by our Lord & am rejecting the lies told me. I'm learning how to surrender more to His Love & let Him fight my battles for me. Just a feeling of well-being and peace! Wonderful, peace. It came off in layers. I especially felt it during the forgiveness prayers, lifting of curses, 2nd generational curse prayer, and final prayers. I had lots of burping during this session, which I do not usually experience. But I am grateful for all that you do and for the peace, mercy, and healing the Lord provides. THANK YOU. I experienced liberation with the prayers for Freemasons. I had an ancestor that I know was Freemason. I screamed involuntarily during the prayers as if something had broken. I have had spiritual problems for more than 5 years. I hope I got rid of those demons and be the end of this sad experience A profound peace fell on me. …as Msgr was praying tonight, my neck and face swelling that is caused by allergy…started going down. I could hear popping in my ears and face and felt like I could breathe better too. I was feeling a heavy oppression most of the day, partially due to a difficult situation with our adult son who is living with us. I felt it greatly lifted through the deliverance session. I am so, so grateful. I was feeling very anxious and stressed from work and family, especially feeling this pressure in my shoulders/back. I tried many things (sleeping more, massages, exercise, etc). Joining this tonight did for me what nothing had been able to do. I feel so much lighter in my body and mentally. A must for my spiritual life. I had been suffering with a constant headache since my last fall on Christmas day. During the session of today i felt like a heat from my head through my shoulder, and immediately the pain is gone thank you Lord for my healing. It was so great. I burped a lot and for some reason my right hand started to hurt when you were lifting curses. It stopped when it was done and I started to cry with the demon talk because I always feel like I am a failure and not good enough I been attending them over a year. I feel Our Lord Jesus is starting to heal all my Family & my boyfriend & I. We are all very broken from years of sin & hurts from past traumas. My family of…adult kids, repeat verbal abuses towards me. It’s been painful, and since joining your prayer sessions I’m slowly getting graces to have more boundaries…I wept when you came to the prayers for healing. I decided I gave them life, raised them with all the sacraments, rosaries, scapulars, etc. They need gratitude in Jesus’ graces, so I pray! Thank you all!! I have been plagued by a heaviness for so long and an awareness that something negative was sitting on me. After praying with the deliverance session, I am so much lighter! It was beautiful and full of wonderful information that helped me to know of God's love and mercy! It helped me forgive myself and forgive others. I highly, highly recommend all Catholics to attend a session at least once. It was just beautiful and so beneficial!
- Exorcist Diary #381: The Hounds of Hell
[ St. Michael the Archangel , Master of Castelsardo, 15th-16th century] Hell Hounds are thought to be mythological creatures from the underworld who serve the devil. They are often depicted as fierce, muscular, black dogs with sharp teeth and red eyes. But actually such "mythological" creatures do exist and have attacked great saints. " On the very morning of her [St. Gemma Galgani] death, the devil appeared once again , this time in the form of a black, ferocious dog." The attacks against her were so fierce she thought (incorrectly) that she was possessed and needed an exorcism. Similarly, " Sister Faustina found herself surrounded by what appeared to her as a pack of huge black dogs who were jumping and howling and trying to tear her to pieces. Instantly, she realized that they were not dogs but demons. One of them spoke up in a rage: 'Because you have snatched so many souls away from us this night, we will tear you to pieces.'" These Hounds of Hell, as St. Faustina knew, were actually demons. When they appear, it is often in the form of grotesque beasts or vicious animals. The Hounds of hell are demonic servants of Satan. The Evil One assigns them tasks. These hounds are vicious and ferocious. They are unrelenting in their attacks. They never give up. An Exorcist experiences this relentless, destructive obsessiveness of demons. Demons never willingly depart; they must be cast out. They are irrationally committed to destroying someone, regardless of the spiritual cost or time needed. Their eternal rage against God has become an unbending, obsessive rage against humans. I found something similar in Satan's minions on this earth. These human minions serve Satan, whether knowingly or unknowingly. When they focus on destroying a particular target, such as another person, via curses, spells, or other forms of harassment, they too are irrationally obsessed and refuse to quit. These humans are also the Hounds of Hell. I have run into a few. They are blind with rage and will never quit. The Good News? As St. Faustina, St. Gemma Galgani, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Padre Pio and a host of other saints and mystics will tell you, just a little holy water and some deliverance prayers deflect, if not cast out, their evil. It may be a long, on-going battle, as the hounds of hell maniacally focus on their targets and need to be repeatedly defanged. But Christ has bound Satan, and His presence protects us. We are never completely free from evil in this life. Satan with his demonic and human minions will never give up. They are the Hounds of Hell. But with each attack that we overcome, we are spiritually stronger, and the demons weaker. Their relentless attacks become our daily triumphs and increasing virtue. The day of final liberation is close. Life is short. The Final Judgment is coming. Satan knows this; he and his followers are desperate. But we are filled with hope and the sure knowledge of the triumph of Jesus. --------------- +This is not to disparage real dogs.

Your videos and the prayer session are helping me find some peace Lovely experience! I shed a lot of tears, especially for the first portion. And also a lot of smiles. My soul feels at peace. Thank you and Hallelujah. Very helpful for me! I am committed to staying in a rocky marriage. Husband has severe PTSD at times…I am a recovering alcoholic & addict…Both Grandparents Freemasonry…abortions, etc. I came away with a greater understanding of forgiveness and little closer to trusting. This was my first session, and I was a few minutes late, but I loved it! There were times that I felt dizzy and scared, but I continued praying and felt a lot better. I LOVED the Q&A right after. I can't wait for the next session. For anyone reading this, do not hesitate, join the next one! I thought the prayers tonight were very thorough and I sensed a presence leave me! I feel so light and peaceful, a taste of the joy I’ve been starving for for years. I felt so peaceful and full of gratitude for God and for you and your team Monsignor. Joy-filled. This is my first time to attend a live Deliverance Prayer…I was yawning a lot at the start & felt tired but at the end of the session felt like I had a surge of energy. I recently disconnected from a friend who started telling me she had a divination degree. She started getting angry with me and I decided to disengage with her. I felt a clearing from this session. Sessions so helpful, felt deep peace. I felt a great relief in the prayer of binding evil spirits and something leaving me after 2nd round of prayer of the generational spirit. This is the first time I could feel the noticeable changes in me from a prayer session. I've been participating in the Deliverance sessions for over a year. Today I felt a deep peace that I haven't felt before…looking forward to the next session! These monthly sessions, the retreats as well as the Pray with Me videos (daily) have changed my life. They have given me hope when I was close to despair. I have been struggling with forgiveness for a while and this experience was simply amazing. During this experience a headache came on and it was suddenly gone by the end of it and I just felt astonished about how peaceful I felt by the end of this prayer session and I am looking forward to the next one. My husband and I loved it! We always feel peace. These sessions have been profoundly healing for me….i have struggled with addictions and family childhood trauma……uncovered in a session a trauma I had buried: I was 8. In an unholy rage I cursed myself wishing I had never been born….it ruptured my heart. I had buried that “hole” the prayer sessions have helped tremendously….Thank you Jesus! Felt lighter personally as if something was lifted out from me. A great peace filled my entire heart and soul. I prayed tonight especially for healing of a sense of abandonment that has been with me for a long time. The Lord brought to mind the day my youngest brother was stillborn, many years ago. I wept most of the session - I did not know his passing had hurt me so much. The Lord healed me of a grief that I have carried so many years without knowing. Like a ton of weight was lifted from my soul. I’m not possessed but experience a great deal of demonic torment due to past trauma…these sessions do make me feel better for a little while and gives me the right tool set to fight and know that I am victorious in Christ. God has a plan for me and my suffering has not been wasted. I feel a little less anxious and more at peace with myself.I am learning to be More forgiving wit h myself. It 's the best eve ning of my month. Deeply powerful right now. Finally realizing that my many childhood "sins" were not mine but were my parents abuse of me as a little innocent girl. A very peaceful experience. My husband and I did it together. That in itself is a miracle. We have had alot of oppression. During the prayers to remove curses, I felt a pulling in my lower back, like my skin was being pulled up. During certain prayers, my husband's vision got blurry several times, and at some points he said he got " tunnel vision." He felt sick with lifting the generational curses. After the session we feel united and fortified and more peaceful. It was awesome I joined the deliverance session and after the prayers Monsignor said for us I felt much better, I woke up earlier than usual today and felt more energetic than I had in a long time. I felt a little dizzy a little nauseous at first [a] little tired, but once it was over and [F]ather gave the final blessing i felt lighter, more energy and more hopeful, thank you all. It was cleansing. I feel more calm and peace inside. Truly felt the peace that surpasses understanding tonight. When Father was praying my heart was burning. I have been attending for nearly two years and these sessions saved my marriage and family. We had a curse placed on us that was so destructive for many years. I did not know where to turn. Over time, hearts were softened, addictions eradicated and love renewed. Eternally grateful A friend told me about this and all I can say is I am blown out of my socks! …I can’t even describe the feeling. It’s amazing. Loved it, very healing!! Wow!!!!! What a powerful deliverance session today! Wow. I love these sessions. I think the world needs them. As usual I feel a total sense of peace and surrender to God. Absolutely wonderful. I feel lighter. Fantastic! Loved it. I have been struggling with mental anxiety, stress and depression. I know anxiety is not from the Lord. I am praying Jesus I trust in you take care of everything in complete surrender. The struggle is real. I felt peace and my anxiety faded away. Today was stressful and things were very scattered when I was trying to get into the session but by the end of the session I felt so much happier and so much more relaxed there was a lot of yawning during the Freemasonry bit. I always receive the gift of peace after these prayer sessions. Lots of tears this evening. but also waves of peace and calm. thank you for these sessions Monsignor Rossetti, much needed in these difficult times. The session was so powerful. Like peeling layers off an onion, each session seems to remove more oppressive stuff. I felt such incredible peace afterwards and truly held by God. I have been struggling with a severe porn addiction made worse by AI allowing the porn to be tailored to my sinful desires & look like women from my past & present. W/God's help, I cleared the material from my phone before the session. During the session, I felt the oppression I've been feeling for months lift & the ache in my heart that pushed me towards this addiction start to heal, especially when praying against the spirits of unforgiveness & lust. These sessions remind me to keep giving Him gratitude and to remain in the certitude that He [God] is at work somehow. Wonderful. I feel loved and blessed Great session..I feel peaceful and like I’m going to get a good night’s sleep :)). Hope filled, renewed and grateful, thank you! It was extremely powerful. The new prayers seemed to have a lifting effect as if something were detached and lifted off. In addition, the prayers to lift curses & seals was very powerful. I cannot thank you enough. I feel safe, protected and loved. Another amazing, healing, liberating and grace-filled experience. It is hard to believe that these online deliverance prayers actually work, but they do! When Msgr. Rossetti prayed to cast out the demon of lethargy, I immediately felt lighter. When he prayed for family unity which I have grieved about for the past few years, I cried. I feel physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually cleaner, lighter, freer and more peaceful after these sessions. My husband and I prayed together, and we both felt a great sense of peace and joy. Little by little - I see a difference in my life. My home is more peaceful and that is the most important thing to me. Outstanding. There was a brief sensation of throat tightness and goosebumps during the prayer session, followed by a light and relaxed feeling afterward.THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I needed it so badly. Everything lately seems to go wrong way…eating disorder…finances…husband talking about suicide…and the air in my house seemed almost heavy. When I prayed two of my younger kids had irrational tantrum anger outburst till the end of the prayers. After this session, my mind was clear and I felt as if a weight had been lifted with a general sense of calm and peace. Wow. The deliverance portion is very powerful! Almost as soon as it started, when we are rebuking and renouncing, I started coughing and my body would shake and make movements all of a sudden, especially when Monsignor prayed with the cross in his hand. Then halfway through the deliverance section, I started hiccuping (I almost never hiccup) and I couldn't stop until the livestream stopped. Literally as soon as it stopped the hiccuping stopped! Over the course of a year, these sessions have truly helped me in healing from both childhood & emotional wounds. I'm realizing how loved I am by our Lord & am rejecting the lies told me. I'm learning how to surrender more to His Love & let Him fight my battles for me. Just a feeling of well-being and peace! Wonderful, peace. It came off in layers. I especially felt it during the forgiveness prayers, lifting of curses, 2nd generational curse prayer, and final prayers. I had lots of burping during this session, which I do not usually experience. But I am grateful for all that you do and for the peace, mercy, and healing the Lord provides. THANK YOU. I experienced liberation with the prayers for Freemasons. I had an ancestor that I know was Freemason. I screamed involuntarily during the prayers as if something had broken. I have had spiritual problems for more than 5 years. I hope I got rid of those demons and be the end of this sad experience A profound peace fell on me. …as Msgr was praying tonight, my neck and face swelling that is caused by allergy…started going down. I could hear popping in my ears and face and felt like I could breathe better too. I was feeling a heavy oppression most of the day, partially due to a difficult situation with our adult son who is living with us. I felt it greatly lifted through the deliverance session. I am so, so grateful. I was feeling very anxious and stressed from work and family, especially feeling this pressure in my shoulders/back. I tried many things (sleeping more, massages, exercise, etc). Joining this tonight did for me what nothing had been able to do. I feel so much lighter in my body and mentally. A must for my spiritual life. I had been suffering with a constant headache since my last fall on Christmas day. During the session of today i felt like a heat from my head through my shoulder, and immediately the pain is gone thank you Lord for my healing. It was so great. I burped a lot and for some reason my right hand started to hurt when you were lifting curses. It stopped when it was done and I started to cry with the demon talk because I always feel like I am a failure and not good enough I been attending them over a year. I feel Our Lord Jesus is starting to heal all my Family & my boyfriend & I. We are all very broken from years of sin & hurts from past traumas. My family of…adult kids, repeat verbal abuses towards me. It’s been painful, and since joining your prayer sessions I’m slowly getting graces to have more boundaries…I wept when you came to the prayers for healing. I decided I gave them life, raised them with all the sacraments, rosaries, scapulars, etc. They need gratitude in Jesus’ graces, so I pray! Thank you all!! I have been plagued by a heaviness for so long and an awareness that something negative was sitting on me. After praying with the deliverance session, I am so much lighter! It was beautiful and full of wonderful information that helped me to know of God's love and mercy! It helped me forgive myself and forgive others. I highly, highly recommend all Catholics to attend a session at least once. It was just beautiful and so beneficial! ---------
- Exorcist Diary #380: Evil's Consuming Rage
[Pope John Paul II meets with his attempted assassin in prison.] I continue to be stunned by the unrelenting rage of evil. Satan and his minions are consumed by a violent rage against God and anyone who follows Him. They hate everyone and even their fellow demons. They will spend their eternity spewing forth rage and desiring to control and destroy. They are beyond hope and conversion. Recently a possessed person, who had made blood pact with Satan, told me about her conversation with Satan. Satan told her that he wanted to be her “friend” and that he would “help” her. Others have said that by cooperating with Satan, they expect to have a privileged place in Satan’s kingdom in the next life. I remind them that Satan is rightly called the “Father of Lies”; he invented the lie. In truth, the Evil One will control, torment and torture every being under his control. He will not be a friend to or help anyone. This unrelenting, consuming rage is found among Satan’s human minions on this earth as well. I have been lifting curses, spells and voodoo directed against a man and his family now for six years. The voodoo witch is consumed with rage against him and is “hell bent” on destroying him and his family. She even curses and tortures his young children. I find it stunning that an adult woman would curse and thus torture these innocent children. Can’t she realize how evil she has become? Every day she curses them and so I regularly lift these curses. As the family gets spiritually stronger, living a virtuous life, they are less affected by these curses. So we are slowly making progress. But it is amazing that she daily curses them and is consumed by a desire to destroy them including tormenting innocent children. Her consuming rage and desire for violent destruction surely makes her a minion of Satan, whether she believes it or not. There is no doubt in my mind that, with each curse, she moves deeper into the dark world and ultimately she is the one being destroyed. So , too, with demons. As the Rite of Exorcism tells them: the more they afflict people, the deeper their punishment. I remind them of the coming judgment and they rightly are terrified. But it does not deter them ! Their rage is all-consuming, irrational and a self-inflicted spiritual death. It does no good for the Exorcist to dialogue with demons. They are irrational and eternally consumed with rage. But most important for us, as we look around the world today, there are increasing signs of this same all-consuming rage. An all-consuming rage only leads to spiritual death, sometimes even a physical one. Such are doing the will of “their father” (Jn 8:41), Satan, whether wittingly or unwittingly. It is a demonic rage, no matter how cloaked in self-righteousness. These times ar e decisive and the task urgent. Jesus’ teaching has never been more critical: "Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your heavenly Father" (Mt 5:44-45). If God is truly our Father, we must forgive. This is the antidote to the damning ills of our times ... forgiveness. Love and forgiveness. It has ever been thus. -------------------------------------------- A Prayer For One's Enemies Heavenly Father, your Son commanded us to love our enemies, to pray for them, to respond to hatred with love. We are aware of how difficult, indeed impossible, this is for us without your grace. I especially pray for the following: [Here mention individuals or groups of people you should pray for, such as those who have harmed you; those who oppose you; those with whom you disagree; other racial groups, faiths, ethnic groups, political parties.] I make an act of the will and I pray for each and every one of them and ask you, Father, to bless them. May the Holy Spirit come now into my heart and cast out all hatred, bitterness, and any desire for revenge. May my heart be configured to the Sacred Heart of your Son Jesus- loving, forgiving, self-giving. May the Holy Spirit thus transform me and all into your likeness, so that one day we may come into the fullness of your Presence. Amen. -------------------------------------- + The next Online deliverance session is Monday Feb 9th at 7-8pm Eastern USA time with rosary at 6:30pm.

- Exorcist Diary #379: Is Demonic Lethargy Real?
[see " Last Supper ," San Marco fresco, Italy; Ghirlandaio ] After only a few days, our recently published video: “Pray With Me: Demons of Lethargy” topped 125k views. The rapid and overwhelming response suggests that it hit a long-hidden nerve. A lot of people are suffering from lethargy and have not found any effective medical/psychological treatment. It should be quickly noted that whenever serious symptoms of lethargy surface, professional medical and/or psychological assistance should first be sought out. The Catholic Church’s protocol for exorcists is to first rule out psychological and medical causes before investigating the preternatural. But the avalanche of responses to the video and these deliverance prayers, and their related experiences are important. Here are a few responses as a sample: Literally every time I try to do a rosary (a spirit of lethargy overcomes me); I used to do them daily. I recently dropped out of ministry because of lethargy. Every time I sit down to prepare bible study courses I feel an inexplicable lethargy. Thank you Father. The prayer worked! My husband and I are in OCIA (becoming Catholic). We are experiencing this and more… I’m in OCIA and experiencing the same. I’ve been so lethargic. This happens to me often when I plan to go daily mass or the days I have to teach Catechism. I’m fine until I get my rosary out and the yawning starts. Other people tell me the same. I needed this (the Pray With Me video). I have been so tired that I have been too tired to pray. I just needed this video. I have frequently been overcome with lethargy at prayer, at Mass and at Adoration. The prayers worked. Thank you Father! I’m glad you addressed this. I’m energetic all day but when I sit down to study the Bible, I’m overcome with so much fatigue I can’t even keep my eyes open. Thank you for the prayers. Thank you for this. One of my family members just recently mentioned that they feel tired and sleepy during Church Mass. Before and after Mass they say they are fine and feel totally awake & have energy, but when they step into church the feeling of tiredness would hit them. This is such a revelation. In my office as a professional counselor I have experienced much lethargy in trying to help people suffering from mental illnesses. Thanks so much Father for helping us. That prayer worked! Thank you. I was praying today to find out what was happening to me & why I was so drained for the past two weeks as I've been trying to get back into my Catholic Faith! Thank you so much. Thank you father!! Yes this happens to me often, it’s an unexplainable lethargy, even after three cups of coffee, but this prayer has helped me tremendously. This worked for me. I didn't realize I was being attacked. I had so much energy after hearing this the first time . I felt the immediate effect. Thank you Jesus, in Your By Name I am grateful to now go beyond this powerful fatigue. This is my first time to attend a live Deliverance Prayer…I was yawning a lot at the start & felt tired but at the end of the session felt like I had a surge of energy. People in healthcare feel this a lot. I used to work overnight cleaning a visitor center. About 2:30am-3:00am I would be overcome by a powerful lethargy. It was sudden and overwhelming. Caffeine had no effect whatsoever and my entire body was drained. Eventually the telltale signs of preternatural infestation appeared: noises, growls, being touched or being followed. Two priests performed a minor exorcism of the building. Since then, it has been quiet. No signs of demonic harassment. I know that just like the paralyzed man in today’s reading, I need the spiritual healing along with the physical. Of course, one needs to be attentive to possible placebo effects, especially with a subjective experience like lethargy. But the evidence for the existence of a demonic lethargy is strong. Its typical symptoms are: *There is a sudden onset of an overwhelming, inexplicable lethargy; *It often strikes when the person engages in a holy task such as going to church, reading the Bible, attending OCIA (becoming Catholic), helping others, or other charitable work; *It does not respond to traditional medical or psychological treatments; *It may lift quickly in response to deliverance prayers. Our SMC exorcists became aware of a demonic lethargy during exorcisms. More than a few times, we began an exorcism session and within a half hour or so, the Exorcist would be overwhelmed by lethargy, so much so that it was difficult to continue. Similarly, the afflicted person, who was the subject of the prayers, likewise independently complained of an intense lethargy. When it was recognized as having a demonic origin, the Exorcist commanded the demons of lethargy to leave, often with immediate success. This experience is especially informative because Exorcists are uniquely protected from demonic attacks. Nevertheless, at times, powerful demons of lethargy can “breakthrough” such strong defenses. Thus, the effects of demons of lethargy on people who are less protected might be even more debilitating and even more difficult to cast out. To be protected from Demons of Lethargy, what should one do? 1. Be protected as much as possible from demonic attacks of any kind, using all the normal defenses. This includes regular use of sacraments, sacramentals, prayer and holy living; 2. When experiencing intense fatigue, medical and/or psychological causes and treatments should be thoroughly investigated; 3. When preternatural causes are suspected, deliverance prayers and sacramentals ought to be used including explicitly using the three R’s: “I renounce, I reject, I rebuke the evil spirits of lethargy”; 4. Regardless of the origin and level of success of ridding one’s self from lethargy, one’s sufferings ought to be offered as a participation in the Cross of Jesus, and thus become a source of spiritual growth and grace. Most people suffering from lethargy will find a real medical and/or psychological cause. It is important not to see demons “under every rock.” But there will be a few cases that suggest more spiritual roots.+ In our hyper-scientific era, an appreciation of the reality of supernatural and preternatural realities is often overlooked. ----------------------- +It only makes sense that demons try to stop holy works by draining the energy from people. They are death-dealers so naturally deplete energy and life wherever they go. They are completely committed to stopping any sort of holy work. They try to hide and thus subtly drain people's energy without being noticed. Unmasking their subtle evil ways can be very important and helpful. ++To assist in casting out demons of lethargy, see: " Pray With Me: Casting Out Demons of Lethargy ."

Your videos and the prayer session are helping me find some peace Lovely experience! I shed a lot of tears, especially for the first portion. And also a lot of smiles. My soul feels at peace. Thank you and Hallelujah. Very helpful for me! I am committed to staying in a rocky marriage. Husband has severe PTSD at times…I am a recovering alcoholic & addict…Both Grandparents Freemasonry…abortions, etc. I came away with a greater understanding of forgiveness and little closer to trusting. This was my first session, and I was a few minutes late, but I loved it! There were times that I felt dizzy and scared, but I continued praying and felt a lot better. I LOVED the Q&A right after. I can't wait for the next session. For anyone reading this, do not hesitate, join the next one! I thought the prayers tonight were very thorough and I sensed a presence leave me! I feel so light and peaceful, a taste of the joy I’ve been starving for for years. I felt so peaceful and full of gratitude for God and for you and your team Monsignor. Joy-filled. This is my first time to attend a live Deliverance Prayer…I was yawning a lot at the start & felt tired but at the end of the session felt like I had a surge of energy. I recently disconnected from a friend who started telling me she had a divination degree. She started getting angry with me and I decided to disengage with her. I felt a clearing from this session. Sessions so helpful, felt deep peace. I felt a great relief in the prayer of binding evil spirits and something leaving me after 2nd round of prayer of the generational spirit. This is the first time I could feel the noticeable changes in me from a prayer session. I've been participating in the Deliverance sessions for over a year. Today I felt a deep peace that I haven't felt before…looking forward to the next session! These monthly sessions, the retreats as well as the Pray with Me videos (daily) have changed my life. They have given me hope when I was close to despair. I have been struggling with forgiveness for a while and this experience was simply amazing. During this experience a headache came on and it was suddenly gone by the end of it and I just felt astonished about how peaceful I felt by the end of this prayer session and I am looking forward to the next one. My husband and I loved it! We always feel peace. These sessions have been profoundly healing for me….i have struggled with addictions and family childhood trauma……uncovered in a session a trauma I had buried: I was 8. In an unholy rage I cursed myself wishing I had never been born….it ruptured my heart. I had buried that “hole” the prayer sessions have helped tremendously….Thank you Jesus! Felt lighter personally as if something was lifted out from me. A great peace filled my entire heart and soul. I prayed tonight especially for healing of a sense of abandonment that has been with me for a long time. The Lord brought to mind the day my youngest brother was stillborn, many years ago. I wept most of the session - I did not know his passing had hurt me so much. The Lord healed me of a grief that I have carried so many years without knowing. Like a ton of weight was lifted from my soul. I’m not possessed but experience a great deal of demonic torment due to past trauma…these sessions do make me feel better for a little while and gives me the right tool set to fight and know that I am victorious in Christ. God has a plan for me and my suffering has not been wasted. I feel a little less anxious and more at peace with myself.I am learning to be More forgiving wit h myself. It 's the best eve ning of my month. Deeply powerful right now. Finally realizing that my many childhood "sins" were not mine but were my parents abuse of me as a little innocent girl. A very peaceful experience. My husband and I did it together. That in itself is a miracle. We have had alot of oppression. During the prayers to remove curses, I felt a pulling in my lower back, like my skin was being pulled up. During certain prayers, my husband's vision got blurry several times, and at some points he said he got " tunnel vision." He felt sick with lifting the generational curses. After the session we feel united and fortified and more peaceful. It was awesome I joined the deliverance session and after the prayers Monsignor said for us I felt much better, I woke up earlier than usual today and felt more energetic than I had in a long time. I felt a little dizzy a little nauseous at first [a] little tired, but once it was over and [F]ather gave the final blessing i felt lighter, more energy and more hopeful, thank you all. It was cleansing. I feel more calm and peace inside. Truly felt the peace that surpasses understanding tonight. When Father was praying my heart was burning. I have been attending for nearly two years and these sessions saved my marriage and family. We had a curse placed on us that was so destructive for many years. I did not know where to turn. Over time, hearts were softened, addictions eradicated and love renewed. Eternally grateful A friend told me about this and all I can say is I am blown out of my socks! …I can’t even describe the feeling. It’s amazing. Loved it, very healing!! Wow!!!!! What a powerful deliverance session today! Wow. I love these sessions. I think the world needs them. As usual I feel a total sense of peace and surrender to God. Absolutely wonderful. I feel lighter. Fantastic! Loved it. I have been struggling with mental anxiety, stress and depression. I know anxiety is not from the Lord. I am praying Jesus I trust in you take care of everything in complete surrender. The struggle is real. I felt peace and my anxiety faded away. Today was stressful and things were very scattered when I was trying to get into the session but by the end of the session I felt so much happier and so much more relaxed there was a lot of yawning during the Freemasonry bit. I always receive the gift of peace after these prayer sessions. Lots of tears this evening. but also waves of peace and calm. thank you for these sessions Monsignor Rossetti, much needed in these difficult times. The session was so powerful. Like peeling layers off an onion, each session seems to remove more oppressive stuff. I felt such incredible peace afterwards and truly held by God. I have been struggling with a severe porn addiction made worse by AI allowing the porn to be tailored to my sinful desires & look like women from my past & present. W/God's help, I cleared the material from my phone before the session. During the session, I felt the oppression I've been feeling for months lift & the ache in my heart that pushed me towards this addiction start to heal, especially when praying against the spirits of unforgiveness & lust. These sessions remind me to keep giving Him gratitude and to remain in the certitude that He [God] is at work somehow. Wonderful. I feel loved and blessed Great session..I feel peaceful and like I’m going to get a good night’s sleep :)). Hope filled, renewed and grateful, thank you! It was extremely powerful. The new prayers seemed to have a lifting effect as if something were detached and lifted off. In addition, the prayers to lift curses & seals was very powerful. I cannot thank you enough. I feel safe, protected and loved. Another amazing, healing, liberating and grace-filled experience. It is hard to believe that these online deliverance prayers actually work, but they do! When Msgr. Rossetti prayed to cast out the demon of lethargy, I immediately felt lighter. When he prayed for family unity which I have grieved about for the past few years, I cried. I feel physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually cleaner, lighter, freer and more peaceful after these sessions. My husband and I prayed together, and we both felt a great sense of peace and joy. Little by little - I see a difference in my life. My home is more peaceful and that is the most important thing to me. Outstanding. There was a brief sensation of throat tightness and goosebumps during the prayer session, followed by a light and relaxed feeling afterward.THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I needed it so badly. Everything lately seems to go wrong way…eating disorder…finances…husband talking about suicide…and the air in my house seemed almost heavy. When I prayed two of my younger kids had irrational tantrum anger outburst till the end of the prayers. After this session, my mind was clear and I felt as if a weight had been lifted with a general sense of calm and peace. Wow. The deliverance portion is very powerful! Almost as soon as it started, when we are rebuking and renouncing, I started coughing and my body would shake and make movements all of a sudden, especially when Monsignor prayed with the cross in his hand. Then halfway through the deliverance section, I started hiccuping (I almost never hiccup) and I couldn't stop until the livestream stopped. Literally as soon as it stopped the hiccuping stopped! Over the course of a year, these sessions have truly helped me in healing from both childhood & emotional wounds. I'm realizing how loved I am by our Lord & am rejecting the lies told me. I'm learning how to surrender more to His Love & let Him fight my battles for me. Just a feeling of well-being and peace! Wonderful, peace. It came off in layers. I especially felt it during the forgiveness prayers, lifting of curses, 2nd generational curse prayer, and final prayers. I had lots of burping during this session, which I do not usually experience. But I am grateful for all that you do and for the peace, mercy, and healing the Lord provides. THANK YOU. I experienced liberation with the prayers for Freemasons. I had an ancestor that I know was Freemason. I screamed involuntarily during the prayers as if something had broken. I have had spiritual problems for more than 5 years. I hope I got rid of those demons and be the end of this sad experience A profound peace fell on me. …as Msgr was praying tonight, my neck and face swelling that is caused by allergy…started going down. I could hear popping in my ears and face and felt like I could breathe better too. I was feeling a heavy oppression most of the day, partially due to a difficult situation with our adult son who is living with us. I felt it greatly lifted through the deliverance session. I am so, so grateful. I was feeling very anxious and stressed from work and family, especially feeling this pressure in my shoulders/back. I tried many things (sleeping more, massages, exercise, etc). Joining this tonight did for me what nothing had been able to do. I feel so much lighter in my body and mentally. A must for my spiritual life. I had been suffering with a constant headache since my last fall on Christmas day. During the session of today i felt like a heat from my head through my shoulder, and immediately the pain is gone thank you Lord for my healing. It was so great. I burped a lot and for some reason my right hand started to hurt when you were lifting curses. It stopped when it was done and I started to cry with the demon talk because I always feel like I am a failure and not good enough I been attending them over a year. I feel Our Lord Jesus is starting to heal all my Family & my boyfriend & I. We are all very broken from years of sin & hurts from past traumas. My family of…adult kids, repeat verbal abuses towards me. It’s been painful, and since joining your prayer sessions I’m slowly getting graces to have more boundaries…I wept when you came to the prayers for healing. I decided I gave them life, raised them with all the sacraments, rosaries, scapulars, etc. They need gratitude in Jesus’ graces, so I pray! Thank you all!! I have been plagued by a heaviness for so long and an awareness that something negative was sitting on me. After praying with the deliverance session, I am so much lighter! It was beautiful and full of wonderful information that helped me to know of God's love and mercy! It helped me forgive myself and forgive others. I highly, highly recommend all Catholics to attend a session at least once. It was just beautiful and so beneficial!
- Exorcist Diary #378: Evil Spirit of Lethargy
[ The Raising of Lazarus , Rembrandt. c. 1630-1632] I have written in the past about cases of a spirit of lethargy which were not successfully treated by medical science but lifted in response to prayer. There does seem to be an evil spirit of lethargy which can afflict people, especially those who are doing something the demons want to stop, including an exorcism. For example, in the midst of an exorcism, the Exorcist and/or the afflicted person may become overwhelmed with a spirit of lethargy, making it very difficult to continue. (See Exorcist Diary #240 : Demons of Lethargy.) In our monthly online sessions, I pray at some point to lift the evil spirit of lethargy and many people report it having a significant effect. Previously in the midst of the sessions, they inexplicably felt drained of energy but it lifted after the Exorcist prayed to cast out the evil spirits of lethargy. Obviously demons do not want people praying deliverance prayers! Similarly, I just received this personal witness*: I wanted to share with you my experiences over the last 10 weeks. It began with some strange experiences in the house. For example, there were many strange sounds coming from upstairs over several evenings which were not the normal creakings of a house. The dog also heard it. It progressed to a sense of lethargy that was so strong that I could not do my work. Next when I was trying to find a parking spot at the church so I could attend my RCIA (OCIA) course to become Catholic, I was filled with dread. I could not bring myself to attend and dropped out in fear. I thought something terrible was going to happen to me... I had the weird experience of feeling like there was someone in the car with me on the way home. The lethargy became worse .... The combination of the stress and anxiety and the headache (two weeks) and stomach pain that would not go away was making it impossible for me to accomplish anything. I was seeing a doctor for these symptoms but the medications which were supposed to help did not. Nothing was effective. For about the past two months I have awakened in the middle of the night close to 3:00 and been unable to get back to sleep. For the last two weeks I was unable to do the rosary because I was exhausted. However, since New Year's I started doing the deliverance prayers for the laity from your website. I also listened to many of your short “Pray With Me” videos on YouTube (about 10 of them). They always help. And I also decided to put on YouTube and listen to Gregorian chant of Mary Undoer of Knots. This helped a bit. Today I listened to Benedictine Gregorian chant which also displays the Saint Benedict medal on the screen. The lethargy left me. My stomach pain went away. I don't have a headache. I feel very energized and positive about getting my work done. I was feeling crippling anxiety and stress- that's gone. I plan to return to the RCIA (OCIA) program. There is no clearer evidence of the things that you have been teaching in your monthly sessions and in your short YouTubes than what I have experienced. One of the ways that the Evil One tries to stop us from engaging in holy tasks is to afflict us with lethargy. Apparently, the demons were trying to keep this woman from attending the OCIA program and becoming Catholic. As death-dealers, they are particularly adept at this and their mere presence can drain the energy out of someone. But Jesus is Lord and He can cast out these and all evil spirits. Jesus is life. The Dark World only leads to death. [Here is a new video: " Pray With Me: Casting Out Demons of Lethargy ." Pray with it as needed.

I haven't smiled in a long time. So much trauma lifted from abuse. I truly appreciate these sessions. I used to be terrified of Satan, but now I understand the nature better and trust in Jesus! I have experienced sleep paralysis where I’ve had vivid terrifying dreams of Satan trying to pull me away from God. My sleep improves all the time now that I’ve learned so much through the St. Michael Center. My testimony is very long and I don’t believe I can fit it all in this review…I was deep into witchcraft and paganism…I do feel peace after these deliverance sessions. I sent your link to several people. One lady told me she was suicidal, but after your deliverance session, her spirits were lifted and she no longer felt suicidal. Deo Gratias! When you cut cords between me and another person I physically felt a release. My son and I had an unhealthy attachment. We are still mother and son, but a bad spirit left. One hour of peace in a chaotic world. I found you this year when I was at the lowest point of my life…You change lives. I love you all I took part in the Deliverance Prayer session because I'm concerned about my adult daughter. She practices witchcraft. We are estranged due to her cruel words…Her anger is so intense, I'm scared for her soul. I found the prayers helpful and myself a little short of breath. I will attend next month's session From the moment we started I couldn't stop weeping and felt my heart was opened wide. Absolutely wonderful prayers. Powerfull Burping, coughing, spitting, gagging…Continual feeling of stuff coming up from stomach I left the session feeling lighter and restored. Its always healing for us. We have been praying for our granddaughter…She has been delving into demonic activity, and her sweet personality has completely changed. She used to have a medal of 2 Saints on her keychain, which she replaced with a demonic looking goat head. After last night's Deliverance Session, our daughter called and told us that the goat head was no longer on the keychain! Joy Joy… I battled sleepiness and felt electric sensations coursing through my body, but I kept going. My father's face kept appearing in my mind—the man who cursed me two years ago, saying I was as good as dead. Coming from a family line marked by witchcraft, I know this battle is real. But I also know Jesus is setting me free. I'm convinced I've been afflicted, and I'm ready to heal. I can't wait for the next session. Thank you for this blessing. I felt a great release from childhood trauma Attending for 9 months. Before this, I lived with exhaustion, sleep paralysis, constant nightmares, and a voice telling me to kill myself which I believe was tied to my family’s occult involvement. I couldn’t keep a job or maintain relationships. Since joining your deliverance sessions, everything has changed the voices are gone, and my life has completely turned around. I’m in OCIA. It was beautiful, I felt calm, relaxed and at peace. I cried a lot, but afterward, I felt loved, forgiven and protected by our Lord Jesus. For the last couple years I have been attending…slowly I have received the great grace I was begging from God: to overcome habitual masturbation. I know to some extent these sessions are responsible. I couldn't overcome it myself…I will praise God's Mercy forever! I have found so much peace and freedom from your sessions…You’ve helped me beyond words. The peace I receive from these sessions is a grace from God…These sessions have greatly helped my spiritual life. During the breaking of the wall around the heart prayer and the prayer to remove generational spirits I had an indescribable physical sensation on the right side of my body that was as if a still pool of water was touched by a finger that made ongoing perfect ripples, after this disruption the restoration of peace in my heart was astounding. I look forward to these sessions. They help give me hope when I’m feeling as though there’s a dark cloud following me. Felt cold shivers during one of the final prayers. Felt that it was a release . Thank you Lord. …love these deliverance sessions. I especially appreciate the focus on "trust in Jesus”…I struggle with lack of belief that I am lovable by anyone (even God). It opens the door to anger, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, fear, hopelessness, and lack of faith. There are always layers to be cleared away which happens when I attend these sessions. After the session, I felt a weight come off my shoulders and the house felt peaceful. Tonight I finally felt peace in my heart. I have been experiencing spirits of depression, anxiety, self- hatred, self-pity and unforgiveness. I lost my mom, my husband and father in 4 years. I had been away from the Church 25 years and had turned to the occult to heal…I figured I was cursed and was just about to give up. The Prayer Requests you offer is what got me back here tonight for this very powerful deliverance. God bless you! excellent session …definitely felt some disturbing sensations at different times in the prayer process. My paternal grandfather was a Freemason, so I’m especially glad for that section of the prayers…I definitely feel more at peace now. I feel so loved and so at peace. All was well until the prayer to break the Freemasonic curse..felt like my forehead was in a vice that kept tightening. Also my left eye felt like a hot poker was stuck in it. So weird, but for once there was no panic. Just held on and it passed after the prayer was finished. I can't believe what a blessing these sessions are in my my life.I felt relieved and blessed. My family is beset with so many curses from free masonry. I felt at peace and I trust God for his mercy, love to free my family especially my nephew to leave the Masonic cult that he entered recently. I feel peaceful, calm, and encouraged. …by 3:00 pm a heavy feeling of sickness fever chills body aches started. It was awful. I joined the live healing session anyway. I’m so glad I did. Once Monsignor began the prayers for healing & covered us in the precious blood of Jesus I felt those words wash over my whole body and the chills stopped and the aches went away. I expected to wake up with the flu today but I’m fine as though I was never sick at all. I was having a difficult time forgiving someone who really said something hurtful to me. This session helped me to let go and allow God to help me forgive her. I do forgive her but having a hard time getting over the hurt. …felt the Holy Spirit heal my heart in the last prayers…I felt God being proud of me. Where I’ve had resentment towards my parents for never letting me know that they were proud of me and feeling like a failure. I always experience sleep paralysis…Ever since I joined the Deliverance prayer last October. I have only experienced one night of attack. very healing and peaceful Beautiful. Needed prayers more than ever!! We have been dealing with a prodigal for so long. She reached out at start of service via text -uncanny. The session brought me great relief and peace. I felt really bad all day leading up to tonight. I didn’t think that i could do it again… When we finished I felt better and more at peace. It was awesome! When I first started these online sessions, my life was really dark due to lots of family, trauma and external dark people in my life.. Slowly my life has balanced out, and in tonight’s session, I felt a heavy weight lifted. There’s still a lot of stuff I have to work through due to all the trauma in my family, but I am very grateful… I felt an immediate sense of peace wash over me. Anxiety, fear and worry left. I had a hideous childhood with cult activity, brainwashing, isolation, incest and spiritual abuse perpetrated in the name of Jesus and the Church, so I am struggling to forgive God for letting that happen to me. I was brought to tears as I began opening my heart back up to him. It will take a long time but it felt hopeful to begin releasing my anger… peaceful as always I have received physical healing in my strained shoulder and filled with peace and gratitude. I have a sense of peace and lightness after years of abuse. These monthly deliverance prayers have been instrumental in my continued healing.I had a feeling of dread coming into the prayer session. I left with a feeling of joy. My son happened to join me for the session, since he was with me while I was driving. It was completely unplanned. He felt a weight lifted immediately at the end of the binding prayer. Praise be to God. Absolutely wonderful! All day today, starting at noon, I began to feel increasingly "off". I got very tired and achy. I was really just holding on until the 7pm log-in time. Then during the session, I felt increasingly better. By the end I felt great. This was a powerful event. I enjoyed all of the prayers, and talks. I kept saying "wow! this is exactly what I needed!” I always feel better, lighter, more peaceful. It was a blessing. I felt released… It is always tremendously healing….today I cried tears of release and was so uplifted afterwards GOD These monthly deliverance session I have been doing for the last four years - they have brought so much healing, peace and forgiveness and returned our prodigal son. Because of these healing prayers our family has been restored! I experienced great peace and joy. I have no words to express my gratitude to Monsignor and to all his staff at Saint Michael Center for these events, it’s been a blessing for me This was a really powerful session. Felt lighter, more joyful and a lot more clear minded It felt like a full spiritual bath of healing, rebuking the evil one and his lies, and renewal. Until recently I didn’t realize the Cathodic Church offered healing / prayer sessions like this. I was desperate and got into kundalini and occult and they talk about healing generational things…Blessed I was led here. Thank you for helping me and so many. I still struggle with pride, and unforgiveness after a childhood of physical and emotional abuse; but these sessions, coupled with weekly confession and prayer, have opened up my soul and mind to the love and mercy of God. I needed this so bad. Thank you Jesus for gifting me with the session and all its blessing. I have been attending for about one year. I was the victim of sexual assault as a very young child, and by family verbal abuse afterward for decades.I suffered additional sexual assaults as a young adult, among other issues. New Age self healing (various) did not help. Earlier sessions, I would fall asleep or get sick, cough and always would sway like a cobra, and shudder during casting out prayers. Now, any reaction is very weak. Uplifting and cleansing experience.I have become more grateful and more aware of how present God is in my heart, in my life, and in our world. I feel the peace of Jesus, and His love and forgiveness. Today, I stayed at work for this deliverance session as there is always tension at home with my husband (more than usual lately)…Today, I came home to slightly less strife which is a welcome change. Forgiveness prayers: it is like bricks are being taken off of my back. I have a very dysfunctional family with zero contact and these prayers for generational curses help me accept it and feel secure in God's love…Thank you for having these monthly sessions we are lucky to have you all at St Michael Center Peaceful Holy My third eye was opened by a Tibetan guru many years ago without my permission or understanding of what was being done to me. I've been unable to have a discussion about it as most people think I've gone off the rails. I am grateful that you have acknowledged that this is a real thing and to also offer prayers to help correct and hopefully reverse the error and unholy ties. Thank you so much for these prayers. For the first time ever I genuinely want to forgive my enemies. The way the prayers were structured was perfect. Cradle Catholic who “left”Church at 18. After 40 years returned. When I started the sessions I fell asleep. I have always struggled with being tired and anger. I suspect I had “Klingons” from childhood due to sexual abuse and various experiences. Today and the last few sessions I just had so much gratitude and that I can contribute my prayers for support of those in the midst of struggle.
- Exorcist Diary #377: Catching Fire in 2026
[ Pentecost with the BVM , photo by author; San Agostino, Lucca Italy; Oblates of the Holy Spirit] A converted Satanist said she was given the task, before her conversion, of cursing everyone in a local Catholic Church. So she cast her spells and curses over the entire congregation. But she noticed something that surprised her. Her spells were effective over the "casual" Catholics, i.e., those who were rather lukewarm in their faith. But with fervent Catholics, they were completely ineffective. Satan had no power over them. In an unpublished manuscript of a Catholic mystic, the mystic was "graced" by God with a vision of hell. One particularly surprising moment came when she saw a couple in hell whom she had known on earth who were weekly Church goers. She wasn't sure why they had ended up in hell, but obviously they were not truly followers of Jesus. Simply attending Church on Sunday was obviously not enough. It is easy to become complacent or lukewarm in our faith. The complacent may stop going to Mass on holy days; they seldom go to confession; they may even skip Mass on Sunday when not convenient; they rarely pray privately. They engage in few, if any, devotions, holy hours, rosaries, or read spiritual books, or study the Bible. In short, they are doing little to develop a relationship with Jesus and to engage all the wonderful graces He offers through his holy church. The lukewarm often start entertaining lax, and possibly heretical, ideas such as universalism (all people go to heaven) or denying the existence of purgatory, that is, recognizing their own sinfulness and the need for redemption by Jesus. They might think: "God will never send me to hell" or "I am a good person and don't need all that religion" or simply, "I don't have time." The words of the Book of Revelation apply: "Because you are lukewarm ... I will spit you out of my mouth ... Be earnest therefore and repent" (Rev 3:16,19). Our exorcism ministry would not allow such "Christians" into an exorcism session. Their lukewarm faith would spiritually drag down the entire effort. Moreover, being in the presence of demons in an exorcism they might be in spiritual danger. They are not fully protected, as the converted Satanist discovered. An exorcism typically demonstrates the need for a fervent, active faith. The Exorcist cannot cast out the demons when the afflicted person is not fully engaged in the Faith. We insist on regular Mass (if not daily); confession at least monthly; a daily regimen of deliverance prayers, the rosary, holy hours and more. Regular Bible study is important. Most importantly: do we have a real thirst for Jesus and his Kingdom? The Bible tells us the first commandment is to "love" the Lord our God, and our neighbor. Do we truly love God if we pay little attention to Him? We are beginning a new year. Let us all pray for the grace to "catch fire" for the faith. When I see this in people, it is exciting. Pray for this grace! And start doing those things that will help you "catch fire." Read the Bible daily. Pray daily. Use the sacraments and sacramentals of the Church. Pray for the grace of a Spirit-filled faith. If you do these things, I guarantee you eventually WILL catch fire. Thus this year will be the best ever! And you might find that the gates of heaven will open to you. -------------------------------- +SMC's new initiative: the St. Gemma Project provides online session for young adults (18-30) to dialogue with Msgr.

I haven't smiled in a long time. So much trauma lifted from abuse. I truly appreciate these sessions. I used to be terrified of Satan, but now I understand the nature better and trust in Jesus! I have experienced sleep paralysis where I’ve had vivid terrifying dreams of Satan trying to pull me away from God. My sleep improves all the time now that I’ve learned so much through the St. Michael Center. My testimony is very long and I don’t believe I can fit it all in this review…I was deep into witchcraft and paganism…I do feel peace after these deliverance sessions. I sent your link to several people. One lady told me she was suicidal, but after your deliverance session, her spirits were lifted and she no longer felt suicidal. Deo Gratias! When you cut cords between me and another person I physically felt a release. My son and I had an unhealthy attachment. We are still mother and son, but a bad spirit left. One hour of peace in a chaotic world. I found you this year when I was at the lowest point of my life…You change lives. I love you all I took part in the Deliverance Prayer session because I'm concerned about my adult daughter. She practices witchcraft. We are estranged due to her cruel words…Her anger is so intense, I'm scared for her soul. I found the prayers helpful and myself a little short of breath. I will attend next month's session From the moment we started I couldn't stop weeping and felt my heart was opened wide. Absolutely wonderful prayers. Powerfull Burping, coughing, spitting, gagging…Continual feeling of stuff coming up from stomach I left the session feeling lighter and restored. Its always healing for us. We have been praying for our granddaughter…She has been delving into demonic activity, and her sweet personality has completely changed. She used to have a medal of 2 Saints on her keychain, which she replaced with a demonic looking goat head. After last night's Deliverance Session, our daughter called and told us that the goat head was no longer on the keychain! Joy Joy… I battled sleepiness and felt electric sensations coursing through my body, but I kept going. My father's face kept appearing in my mind—the man who cursed me two years ago, saying I was as good as dead. Coming from a family line marked by witchcraft, I know this battle is real. But I also know Jesus is setting me free. I'm convinced I've been afflicted, and I'm ready to heal. I can't wait for the next session. Thank you for this blessing. I felt a great release from childhood trauma Attending for 9 months. Before this, I lived with exhaustion, sleep paralysis, constant nightmares, and a voice telling me to kill myself which I believe was tied to my family’s occult involvement. I couldn’t keep a job or maintain relationships. Since joining your deliverance sessions, everything has changed the voices are gone, and my life has completely turned around. I’m in OCIA. It was beautiful, I felt calm, relaxed and at peace. I cried a lot, but afterward, I felt loved, forgiven and protected by our Lord Jesus. For the last couple years I have been attending…slowly I have received the great grace I was begging from God: to overcome habitual masturbation. I know to some extent these sessions are responsible. I couldn't overcome it myself…I will praise God's Mercy forever! I have found so much peace and freedom from your sessions…You’ve helped me beyond words. The peace I receive from these sessions is a grace from God…These sessions have greatly helped my spiritual life. During the breaking of the wall around the heart prayer and the prayer to remove generational spirits I had an indescribable physical sensation on the right side of my body that was as if a still pool of water was touched by a finger that made ongoing perfect ripples, after this disruption the restoration of peace in my heart was astounding. I look forward to these sessions. They help give me hope when I’m feeling as though there’s a dark cloud following me. Felt cold shivers during one of the final prayers. Felt that it was a release . Thank you Lord. …love these deliverance sessions. I especially appreciate the focus on "trust in Jesus”…I struggle with lack of belief that I am lovable by anyone (even God). It opens the door to anger, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, fear, hopelessness, and lack of faith. There are always layers to be cleared away which happens when I attend these sessions. After the session, I felt a weight come off my shoulders and the house felt peaceful. Tonight I finally felt peace in my heart. I have been experiencing spirits of depression, anxiety, self- hatred, self-pity and unforgiveness. I lost my mom, my husband and father in 4 years. I had been away from the Church 25 years and had turned to the occult to heal…I figured I was cursed and was just about to give up. The Prayer Requests you offer is what got me back here tonight for this very powerful deliverance. God bless you! excellent session …definitely felt some disturbing sensations at different times in the prayer process. My paternal grandfather was a Freemason, so I’m especially glad for that section of the prayers…I definitely feel more at peace now. I feel so loved and so at peace. All was well until the prayer to break the Freemasonic curse..felt like my forehead was in a vice that kept tightening. Also my left eye felt like a hot poker was stuck in it. So weird, but for once there was no panic. Just held on and it passed after the prayer was finished. I can't believe what a blessing these sessions are in my my life.I felt relieved and blessed. My family is beset with so many curses from free masonry. I felt at peace and I trust God for his mercy, love to free my family especially my nephew to leave the Masonic cult that he entered recently. I feel peaceful, calm, and encouraged. …by 3:00 pm a heavy feeling of sickness fever chills body aches started. It was awful. I joined the live healing session anyway. I’m so glad I did. Once Monsignor began the prayers for healing & covered us in the precious blood of Jesus I felt those words wash over my whole body and the chills stopped and the aches went away. I expected to wake up with the flu today but I’m fine as though I was never sick at all. I was having a difficult time forgiving someone who really said something hurtful to me. This session helped me to let go and allow God to help me forgive her. I do forgive her but having a hard time getting over the hurt. …felt the Holy Spirit heal my heart in the last prayers…I felt God being proud of me. Where I’ve had resentment towards my parents for never letting me know that they were proud of me and feeling like a failure. I always experience sleep paralysis…Ever since I joined the Deliverance prayer last October. I have only experienced one night of attack. very healing and peaceful Beautiful. Needed prayers more than ever!! We have been dealing with a prodigal for so long. She reached out at start of service via text -uncanny. The session brought me great relief and peace. I felt really bad all day leading up to tonight. I didn’t think that i could do it again… When we finished I felt better and more at peace. It was awesome! When I first started these online sessions, my life was really dark due to lots of family, trauma and external dark people in my life.. Slowly my life has balanced out, and in tonight’s session, I felt a heavy weight lifted. There’s still a lot of stuff I have to work through due to all the trauma in my family, but I am very grateful… I felt an immediate sense of peace wash over me. Anxiety, fear and worry left. I had a hideous childhood with cult activity, brainwashing, isolation, incest and spiritual abuse perpetrated in the name of Jesus and the Church, so I am struggling to forgive God for letting that happen to me. I was brought to tears as I began opening my heart back up to him. It will take a long time but it felt hopeful to begin releasing my anger… peaceful as always I have received physical healing in my strained shoulder and filled with peace and gratitude. I have a sense of peace and lightness after years of abuse. These monthly deliverance prayers have been instrumental in my continued healing.I had a feeling of dread coming into the prayer session. I left with a feeling of joy. My son happened to join me for the session, since he was with me while I was driving. It was completely unplanned. He felt a weight lifted immediately at the end of the binding prayer. Praise be to God. Absolutely wonderful! All day today, starting at noon, I began to feel increasingly "off". I got very tired and achy. I was really just holding on until the 7pm log-in time. Then during the session, I felt increasingly better. By the end I felt great. This was a powerful event. I enjoyed all of the prayers, and talks. I kept saying "wow! this is exactly what I needed!” I always feel better, lighter, more peaceful. It was a blessing. I felt released… It is always tremendously healing….today I cried tears of release and was so uplifted afterwards GOD These monthly deliverance session I have been doing for the last four years - they have brought so much healing, peace and forgiveness and returned our prodigal son. Because of these healing prayers our family has been restored! I experienced great peace and joy. I have no words to express my gratitude to Monsignor and to all his staff at Saint Michael Center for these events, it’s been a blessing for me This was a really powerful session. Felt lighter, more joyful and a lot more clear minded It felt like a full spiritual bath of healing, rebuking the evil one and his lies, and renewal. Until recently I didn’t realize the Cathodic Church offered healing / prayer sessions like this. I was desperate and got into kundalini and occult and they talk about healing generational things…Blessed I was led here. Thank you for helping me and so many. I still struggle with pride, and unforgiveness after a childhood of physical and emotional abuse; but these sessions, coupled with weekly confession and prayer, have opened up my soul and mind to the love and mercy of God. I needed this so bad. Thank you Jesus for gifting me with the session and all its blessing. I have been attending for about one year. I was the victim of sexual assault as a very young child, and by family verbal abuse afterward for decades.I suffered additional sexual assaults as a young adult, among other issues. New Age self healing (various) did not help. Earlier sessions, I would fall asleep or get sick, cough and always would sway like a cobra, and shudder during casting out prayers. Now, any reaction is very weak. Uplifting and cleansing experience.I have become more grateful and more aware of how present God is in my heart, in my life, and in our world. I feel the peace of Jesus, and His love and forgiveness. Today, I stayed at work for this deliverance session as there is always tension at home with my husband (more than usual lately)…Today, I came home to slightly less strife which is a welcome change. Forgiveness prayers: it is like bricks are being taken off of my back. I have a very dysfunctional family with zero contact and these prayers for generational curses help me accept it and feel secure in God's love…Thank you for having these monthly sessions we are lucky to have you all at St Michael Center Peaceful Holy My third eye was opened by a Tibetan guru many years ago without my permission or understanding of what was being done to me. I've been unable to have a discussion about it as most people think I've gone off the rails. I am grateful that you have acknowledged that this is a real thing and to also offer prayers to help correct and hopefully reverse the error and unholy ties. Thank you so much for these prayers. For the first time ever I genuinely want to forgive my enemies. The way the prayers were structured was perfect. Cradle Catholic who “left”Church at 18. After 40 years returned. When I started the sessions I fell asleep. I have always struggled with being tired and anger. I suspect I had “Klingons” from childhood due to sexual abuse and various experiences. Today and the last few sessions I just had so much gratitude and that I can contribute my prayers for support of those in the midst of struggle.
- Exorcist Diary #376: People are Miserable!
[" Light of the World ," William Holman Hunt, 1851-1854; Jesus is knocking on our door and asks to be let in. The door is overgrown and has not been opened in a long time. ] I just returned to the big city after being away for several weeks. I went directly to a big box store to buy some items for the Sisters. After about twenty minutes, a realization dawned on me as I noticed all the peoples' faces. They all looked miserable! Their faces were taut; their eyes were joyless; they seemed tense and irritable. No one was happy. Was this something new? I suspect not. I remember having a similar experience decades ago after coming out of a monastery and re-entering civil society. People looked miserable, but it's so common as to feel "normal." However, I think people have a vague sense that something is wrong, which they might blame on others or the world or the government or whatever. But the basic fact is: people are miserable and they do not know what the problem is or how to get out of it. Our little exorcist team just had its annual Christmas party. Yes! Our exorcism team members have both a summer picnic and a Christmas party. A somber group? Not hardly. Laughter, lots of smiles, and a true spirit of joy. Being with such holy people is one of the great gifts for me being in this ministry. The witness of the saints has always been the living gospel that we can see and touch in our modern lives. For me personally, the joy of the saints around me affirms my faith. And the misery, despair and hatred that sin and the dark world inevitably manifest also shows me where the Truth lies and where it does not. As practicing the Faith declines, I can only surmise that people will become increasingly miserable. They won't know why and they won't know how to get out of it. Their faces will be taut, their eyes joyless, and their demeanor unhappy. Are you looking for joy? The Christmas season is a special time of joy. It is a gift that comes to us from Jesus. He said, "I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete" (Jn 15:11). While there is a special joy this season, joy is enduring gift from Jesus for those who follow him. You don't need to believe what I say. Just look at the faces and lives of those around you-- those joyful and those not. Discover for yourself where true joy lies. ----------------------------------------------- +Did you get your Christmas gift and blessing yet?

- Exorcist Diary #375: The Hidden Demonic Affliction
[" The Fool with Two Demons ," detail, Ingeborg Psalter, c. 1205] Demons shame people. Constantly. Compulsively. Always. In hell there is no affirmation. Mystics who have had a graced vision of hell speak of demons eternally tormenting people with their sins. Over and over again, demons in hell rub the noses of the damned with their faults, sins and failures. They are the epitome of sadism- deriving perverted pleasure from peoples' suffering. I recently shared a short video: " Pray With Me: Casting Out Mental Torments " in which I spoke about demonic mental torments and then prayed with people to lift them. It went "viral," as they say, with over 200k views. Demons do not only torment and shame souls in hell, they do so on earth. This is the hidden demonic affliction that people are reticent to share, perhaps from embarrassment or a fear of being misunderstood. Make no mistake: demons mentally torment people A LOT! I suspect it is the most common way that demons torture people, even more than physical afflictions. And it is their most effective way to make us suffer and, at the same time, to remain hidden. It is true that all of us suffer from mental conflicts and even torments at times as part of our fallen human nature. But the intensity and viciousness of peoples' mental torments often transcend any human origin. Sadly, this demonic shaming and tormenting is seeping into our culture. School children are bullying and shaming each other, which not uncommonly leads to the tragedy of suicide. Media stories are full of "gotcha" moments in which the public revels in reading of other's faults, while their own remain hidden. When I read about this erosion of public discourse into shaming, it reminds me of what the demons do to afflicted people-- a constant barrage of shaming. But I don't completely blame the media, because these lurid gotcha stories increase readership. Essentially they print these because of the public appetite for them. When we shame others we are acting like demons and recreating hell on this earth. When we affirm and love others, we are creating a little bit of heaven. This Christmas season, and beyond, let us refrain from shaming and belittling others. Start today. As you go through your day, focus on saying kind and affirming words to those around you. You might be surprised what a few kind words will do for others, and for you. -------------------------------------------- +Did you get your Christmas gift and blessing yet?

I haven't smiled in a long time. So much trauma lifted from abuse. I truly appreciate these sessions. I used to be terrified of Satan, but now I understand the nature better and trust in Jesus! I have experienced sleep paralysis where I’ve had vivid terrifying dreams of Satan trying to pull me away from God. My sleep improves all the time now that I’ve learned so much through the St. Michael Center. My testimony is very long and I don’t believe I can fit it all in this review…I was deep into witchcraft and paganism…I do feel peace after these deliverance sessions. I sent your link to several people. One lady told me she was suicidal, but after your deliverance session, her spirits were lifted and she no longer felt suicidal. Deo Gratias! When you cut cords between me and another person I physically felt a release. My son and I had an unhealthy attachment. We are still mother and son, but a bad spirit left. One hour of peace in a chaotic world. I found you this year when I was at the lowest point of my life…You change lives. I love you all I took part in the Deliverance Prayer session because I'm concerned about my adult daughter. She practices witchcraft. We are estranged due to her cruel words…Her anger is so intense, I'm scared for her soul. I found the prayers helpful and myself a little short of breath. I will attend next month's session From the moment we started I couldn't stop weeping and felt my heart was opened wide. Absolutely wonderful prayers. Powerfull Burping, coughing, spitting, gagging…Continual feeling of stuff coming up from stomach I left the session feeling lighter and restored. Its always healing for us. We have been praying for our granddaughter…She has been delving into demonic activity, and her sweet personality has completely changed. She used to have a medal of 2 Saints on her keychain, which she replaced with a demonic looking goat head. After last night's Deliverance Session, our daughter called and told us that the goat head was no longer on the keychain! Joy Joy… I battled sleepiness and felt electric sensations coursing through my body, but I kept going. My father's face kept appearing in my mind—the man who cursed me two years ago, saying I was as good as dead. Coming from a family line marked by witchcraft, I know this battle is real. But I also know Jesus is setting me free. I'm convinced I've been afflicted, and I'm ready to heal. I can't wait for the next session. Thank you for this blessing. I felt a great release from childhood trauma Attending for 9 months. Before this, I lived with exhaustion, sleep paralysis, constant nightmares, and a voice telling me to kill myself which I believe was tied to my family’s occult involvement. I couldn’t keep a job or maintain relationships. Since joining your deliverance sessions, everything has changed the voices are gone, and my life has completely turned around. I’m in OCIA. It was beautiful, I felt calm, relaxed and at peace. I cried a lot, but afterward, I felt loved, forgiven and protected by our Lord Jesus. For the last couple years I have been attending…slowly I have received the great grace I was begging from God: to overcome habitual masturbation. I know to some extent these sessions are responsible. I couldn't overcome it myself…I will praise God's Mercy forever! I have found so much peace and freedom from your sessions…You’ve helped me beyond words. The peace I receive from these sessions is a grace from God…These sessions have greatly helped my spiritual life. During the breaking of the wall around the heart prayer and the prayer to remove generational spirits I had an indescribable physical sensation on the right side of my body that was as if a still pool of water was touched by a finger that made ongoing perfect ripples, after this disruption the restoration of peace in my heart was astounding. I look forward to these sessions. They help give me hope when I’m feeling as though there’s a dark cloud following me. Felt cold shivers during one of the final prayers. Felt that it was a release . Thank you Lord. …love these deliverance sessions. I especially appreciate the focus on "trust in Jesus”…I struggle with lack of belief that I am lovable by anyone (even God). It opens the door to anger, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, fear, hopelessness, and lack of faith. There are always layers to be cleared away which happens when I attend these sessions. After the session, I felt a weight come off my shoulders and the house felt peaceful. Tonight I finally felt peace in my heart. I have been experiencing spirits of depression, anxiety, self- hatred, self-pity and unforgiveness. I lost my mom, my husband and father in 4 years. I had been away from the Church 25 years and had turned to the occult to heal…I figured I was cursed and was just about to give up. The Prayer Requests you offer is what got me back here tonight for this very powerful deliverance. God bless you! excellent session …definitely felt some disturbing sensations at different times in the prayer process. My paternal grandfather was a Freemason, so I’m especially glad for that section of the prayers…I definitely feel more at peace now. I feel so loved and so at peace. All was well until the prayer to break the Freemasonic curse..felt like my forehead was in a vice that kept tightening. Also my left eye felt like a hot poker was stuck in it. So weird, but for once there was no panic. Just held on and it passed after the prayer was finished. I can't believe what a blessing these sessions are in my my life.I felt relieved and blessed. My family is beset with so many curses from free masonry. I felt at peace and I trust God for his mercy, love to free my family especially my nephew to leave the Masonic cult that he entered recently. I feel peaceful, calm, and encouraged. …by 3:00 pm a heavy feeling of sickness fever chills body aches started. It was awful. I joined the live healing session anyway. I’m so glad I did. Once Monsignor began the prayers for healing & covered us in the precious blood of Jesus I felt those words wash over my whole body and the chills stopped and the aches went away. I expected to wake up with the flu today but I’m fine as though I was never sick at all. I was having a difficult time forgiving someone who really said something hurtful to me. This session helped me to let go and allow God to help me forgive her. I do forgive her but having a hard time getting over the hurt. …felt the Holy Spirit heal my heart in the last prayers…I felt God being proud of me. Where I’ve had resentment towards my parents for never letting me know that they were proud of me and feeling like a failure. I always experience sleep paralysis…Ever since I joined the Deliverance prayer last October. I have only experienced one night of attack. very healing and peaceful Beautiful. Needed prayers more than ever!! We have been dealing with a prodigal for so long. She reached out at start of service via text -uncanny. The session brought me great relief and peace. I felt really bad all day leading up to tonight. I didn’t think that i could do it again… When we finished I felt better and more at peace. It was awesome! When I first started these online sessions, my life was really dark due to lots of family, trauma and external dark people in my life.. Slowly my life has balanced out, and in tonight’s session, I felt a heavy weight lifted. There’s still a lot of stuff I have to work through due to all the trauma in my family, but I am very grateful… I felt an immediate sense of peace wash over me. Anxiety, fear and worry left. I had a hideous childhood with cult activity, brainwashing, isolation, incest and spiritual abuse perpetrated in the name of Jesus and the Church, so I am struggling to forgive God for letting that happen to me. I was brought to tears as I began opening my heart back up to him. It will take a long time but it felt hopeful to begin releasing my anger… peaceful as always I have received physical healing in my strained shoulder and filled with peace and gratitude. I have a sense of peace and lightness after years of abuse. These monthly deliverance prayers have been instrumental in my continued healing.I had a feeling of dread coming into the prayer session. I left with a feeling of joy. My son happened to join me for the session, since he was with me while I was driving. It was completely unplanned. He felt a weight lifted immediately at the end of the binding prayer. Praise be to God. Absolutely wonderful! All day today, starting at noon, I began to feel increasingly "off". I got very tired and achy. I was really just holding on until the 7pm log-in time. Then during the session, I felt increasingly better. By the end I felt great. This was a powerful event. I enjoyed all of the prayers, and talks. I kept saying "wow! this is exactly what I needed!” I always feel better, lighter, more peaceful. It was a blessing. I felt released… It is always tremendously healing….today I cried tears of release and was so uplifted afterwards GOD These monthly deliverance session I have been doing for the last four years - they have brought so much healing, peace and forgiveness and returned our prodigal son. Because of these healing prayers our family has been restored! I experienced great peace and joy. I have no words to express my gratitude to Monsignor and to all his staff at Saint Michael Center for these events, it’s been a blessing for me This was a really powerful session. Felt lighter, more joyful and a lot more clear minded It felt like a full spiritual bath of healing, rebuking the evil one and his lies, and renewal. Until recently I didn’t realize the Cathodic Church offered healing / prayer sessions like this. I was desperate and got into kundalini and occult and they talk about healing generational things…Blessed I was led here. Thank you for helping me and so many. I still struggle with pride, and unforgiveness after a childhood of physical and emotional abuse; but these sessions, coupled with weekly confession and prayer, have opened up my soul and mind to the love and mercy of God. I needed this so bad. Thank you Jesus for gifting me with the session and all its blessing. I have been attending for about one year. I was the victim of sexual assault as a very young child, and by family verbal abuse afterward for decades.I suffered additional sexual assaults as a young adult, among other issues. New Age self healing (various) did not help. Earlier sessions, I would fall asleep or get sick, cough and always would sway like a cobra, and shudder during casting out prayers. Now, any reaction is very weak. Uplifting and cleansing experience.I have become more grateful and more aware of how present God is in my heart, in my life, and in our world. I feel the peace of Jesus, and His love and forgiveness. Today, I stayed at work for this deliverance session as there is always tension at home with my husband (more than usual lately)…Today, I came home to slightly less strife which is a welcome change. Forgiveness prayers: it is like bricks are being taken off of my back. I have a very dysfunctional family with zero contact and these prayers for generational curses help me accept it and feel secure in God's love…Thank you for having these monthly sessions we are lucky to have you all at St Michael Center Peaceful Holy My third eye was opened by a Tibetan guru many years ago without my permission or understanding of what was being done to me. I've been unable to have a discussion about it as most people think I've gone off the rails. I am grateful that you have acknowledged that this is a real thing and to also offer prayers to help correct and hopefully reverse the error and unholy ties. Thank you so much for these prayers. For the first time ever I genuinely want to forgive my enemies. The way the prayers were structured was perfect. Cradle Catholic who “left”Church at 18. After 40 years returned. When I started the sessions I fell asleep. I have always struggled with being tired and anger. I suspect I had “Klingons” from childhood due to sexual abuse and various experiences. Today and the last few sessions I just had so much gratitude and that I can contribute my prayers for support of those in the midst of struggle.
- Exorcist Diary #374: Rough Week for Priesthood
[ Confessional in Poland ] Two major archdioceses just announced their plans for multi-million dollar settlements on hundreds of priest-abuse cases. While all sin is an opening to evil, some sins are particularly deadly and child abuse is one of them. When the perpetrator is a priest, the spiritual devastation and resulting scandal are incalculable. Some have speculated that the Church is especially weak today and thus making exorcisms more difficult. This could be true. Although when I look at the history of the Church, it has always been a bit of a mess... It started with Jesus' hand-picked apostles-- one betrayed Jesus and hung himself, the disciples fled when Jesus was arrested, the head of the apostles denied Jesus three times, and after Jesus' death, in fear they locked themselves in the upper room. Even after the resurrection, the Church was rife with controversy, heresy, division, and backsliding. One possessed person reported to me that the demons showed her a glimpse of all the bishops in hell, in order to turn her away from the faith. I didn't doubt it. A particularly ugly period of Church history can be found in the time of "the bad popes." Parts of Church history from the ninth to sixteenth century read like a sensational Gothic novel. It makes me grateful for some of the holy popes we have had in my lifetime. As a priest, I am also aware of my own sins and weaknesses. I recently found out that some of the photos I had used in a public presentation a couple of years ago were not authentic. Ugh. The family had sent me them as if they were, but I did not investigate thoroughly enough. My mistake. The young woman was truly possessed; she coughed up lots of ugly stuff during the sessions; she had many demonic wounds on her body which I saw. But the photos were a representation of such and not authentic. It was my error in not thoroughly vetting them. Sometimes in an exorcism, the demons will mock us priests and point to our mistakes, weaknesses and sins. One dissed me because of my poor Latin while praying the Rite (it was true but it has since improved!). Another time they deceived me into thinking they had left and, because I was in hurry, I was negligent and did not check with additional prayers. In the ensuing months before they finally left, I justly endured much demonic ridicule. My response to such demonic accusations is always the same. "Yes, I am weak and I am a sinner." I must always tell the truth, even to demons. Then I add, "But I am not your problem. Jesus is your problem. And in his holy name, I cast you out!" Ironically, as Fr. Gabriel Amorth, the former exorcist of Rome, famously said, "I am not afraid of Satan; he is afraid of me." The priesthood is not populated by perfect men, and some will be downright wicked. We priests of today will continue to make mistakes and worse. It has always been thus and will always be. But if you cast off the Catholic Church because of it, you are missing Jesus' intention for the Church and for the sanctification of his people. And the priest himself must increasingly echo the words of St. John the Baptist, "He must increase; I must decrease" (Jn 3:30). -------------------------- + Usher in the New Year with a prayer and blessing.

- Exorcist Diary #373: A Good Day
[" Annunciation ," Henry Ossawa Tanner, 1898] Today was a good day. We had been praying over an afflicted person for five years. Her mother was a witch and raised her on cocaine and spells. As a young woman, she had been trafficked, abused, and raped. Not surprising, she was one of the most possessed people I had ever met or even heard of. But today, her eyes were clear and bright. She has been clean of drugs for a couple of years and living an exemplary chaste life. She has been working a real job and has a nice apartment. And she has a terrific dog that she adores! I prayed delivera nce prayers over her for quite some time and she didn’t twitch. Nothing…no demons. She had been liberated and her face was filled with joy. She emerged from possession due, in no small way, to her adoptive family's love and undying support. She herself fought valiantly for years against incredibly bad odds. The Virgin of Guadalupe was an especially strong intercessor, as always. It was no small grace from the Lord. The dark world often grooms children of witches and satanists for significant positions in Satan's plan. But if they convert to the Lord, which happens, it is a major blow to the plan. Of course, Satan's plans eventually always come to naught and Jesus always wins. It was nice for us to witness this victory of grace.... But my instincts for caution were up. Demons are very sore losers. As I expected, shortly after the session ended my computer went haywire with inexplicable, strange error messages. Rebooting and everything else had no effect. I was not able to work on our Center's sites (although everything else worked). So, I went into the chapel and asked the Blessed Mother for help. I returned. It all worked fine. And then I got a nasty little text from the dark world which was taunting as usual, but also noted that their plans had been "ruined." Nevertheless, demons do not forget nor do they ever relent. Only after the final judgment will they all be locked in hell forever. In these times, we all need to be vigilant. The theme of Advent is just that: "Stay awake!"

I haven't smiled in a long time. So much trauma lifted from abuse. I truly appreciate these sessions. I used to be terrified of Satan, but now I understand the nature better and trust in Jesus! I have experienced sleep paralysis where I’ve had vivid terrifying dreams of Satan trying to pull me away from God. My sleep improves all the time now that I’ve learned so much through the St. Michael Center. My testimony is very long and I don’t believe I can fit it all in this review…I was deep into witchcraft and paganism…I do feel peace after these deliverance sessions. I sent your link to several people. One lady told me she was suicidal, but after your deliverance session, her spirits were lifted and she no longer felt suicidal. Deo Gratias! When you cut cords between me and another person I physically felt a release. My son and I had an unhealthy attachment. We are still mother and son, but a bad spirit left. One hour of peace in a chaotic world. I found you this year when I was at the lowest point of my life…You change lives. I love you all I took part in the Deliverance Prayer session because I'm concerned about my adult daughter. She practices witchcraft. We are estranged due to her cruel words…Her anger is so intense, I'm scared for her soul. I found the prayers helpful and myself a little short of breath. I will attend next month's session From the moment we started I couldn't stop weeping and felt my heart was opened wide. Absolutely wonderful prayers. Powerfull Burping, coughing, spitting, gagging…Continual feeling of stuff coming up from stomach I left the session feeling lighter and restored. Its always healing for us. We have been praying for our granddaughter…She has been delving into demonic activity, and her sweet personality has completely changed. She used to have a medal of 2 Saints on her keychain, which she replaced with a demonic looking goat head. After last night's Deliverance Session, our daughter called and told us that the goat head was no longer on the keychain! Joy Joy… I battled sleepiness and felt electric sensations coursing through my body, but I kept going. My father's face kept appearing in my mind—the man who cursed me two years ago, saying I was as good as dead. Coming from a family line marked by witchcraft, I know this battle is real. But I also know Jesus is setting me free. I'm convinced I've been afflicted, and I'm ready to heal. I can't wait for the next session. Thank you for this blessing. I felt a great release from childhood trauma Attending for 9 months. Before this, I lived with exhaustion, sleep paralysis, constant nightmares, and a voice telling me to kill myself which I believe was tied to my family’s occult involvement. I couldn’t keep a job or maintain relationships. Since joining your deliverance sessions, everything has changed the voices are gone, and my life has completely turned around. I’m in OCIA. It was beautiful, I felt calm, relaxed and at peace. I cried a lot, but afterward, I felt loved, forgiven and protected by our Lord Jesus. For the last couple years I have been attending…slowly I have received the great grace I was begging from God: to overcome habitual masturbation. I know to some extent these sessions are responsible. I couldn't overcome it myself…I will praise God's Mercy forever! I have found so much peace and freedom from your sessions…You’ve helped me beyond words. The peace I receive from these sessions is a grace from God…These sessions have greatly helped my spiritual life. During the breaking of the wall around the heart prayer and the prayer to remove generational spirits I had an indescribable physical sensation on the right side of my body that was as if a still pool of water was touched by a finger that made ongoing perfect ripples, after this disruption the restoration of peace in my heart was astounding. I look forward to these sessions. They help give me hope when I’m feeling as though there’s a dark cloud following me. Felt cold shivers during one of the final prayers. Felt that it was a release . Thank you Lord. …love these deliverance sessions. I especially appreciate the focus on "trust in Jesus”…I struggle with lack of belief that I am lovable by anyone (even God). It opens the door to anger, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, fear, hopelessness, and lack of faith. There are always layers to be cleared away which happens when I attend these sessions. After the session, I felt a weight come off my shoulders and the house felt peaceful. Tonight I finally felt peace in my heart. I have been experiencing spirits of depression, anxiety, self- hatred, self-pity and unforgiveness. I lost my mom, my husband and father in 4 years. I had been away from the Church 25 years and had turned to the occult to heal…I figured I was cursed and was just about to give up. The Prayer Requests you offer is what got me back here tonight for this very powerful deliverance. God bless you! excellent session …definitely felt some disturbing sensations at different times in the prayer process. My paternal grandfather was a Freemason, so I’m especially glad for that section of the prayers…I definitely feel more at peace now. I feel so loved and so at peace. All was well until the prayer to break the Freemasonic curse..felt like my forehead was in a vice that kept tightening. Also my left eye felt like a hot poker was stuck in it. So weird, but for once there was no panic. Just held on and it passed after the prayer was finished. I can't believe what a blessing these sessions are in my my life.I felt relieved and blessed. My family is beset with so many curses from free masonry. I felt at peace and I trust God for his mercy, love to free my family especially my nephew to leave the Masonic cult that he entered recently. I feel peaceful, calm, and encouraged. …by 3:00 pm a heavy feeling of sickness fever chills body aches started. It was awful. I joined the live healing session anyway. I’m so glad I did. Once Monsignor began the prayers for healing & covered us in the precious blood of Jesus I felt those words wash over my whole body and the chills stopped and the aches went away. I expected to wake up with the flu today but I’m fine as though I was never sick at all. I was having a difficult time forgiving someone who really said something hurtful to me. This session helped me to let go and allow God to help me forgive her. I do forgive her but having a hard time getting over the hurt. …felt the Holy Spirit heal my heart in the last prayers…I felt God being proud of me. Where I’ve had resentment towards my parents for never letting me know that they were proud of me and feeling like a failure. I always experience sleep paralysis…Ever since I joined the Deliverance prayer last October. I have only experienced one night of attack. very healing and peaceful Beautiful. Needed prayers more than ever!! We have been dealing with a prodigal for so long. She reached out at start of service via text -uncanny. The session brought me great relief and peace. I felt really bad all day leading up to tonight. I didn’t think that i could do it again… When we finished I felt better and more at peace. It was awesome! When I first started these online sessions, my life was really dark due to lots of family, trauma and external dark people in my life.. Slowly my life has balanced out, and in tonight’s session, I felt a heavy weight lifted. There’s still a lot of stuff I have to work through due to all the trauma in my family, but I am very grateful… I felt an immediate sense of peace wash over me. Anxiety, fear and worry left. I had a hideous childhood with cult activity, brainwashing, isolation, incest and spiritual abuse perpetrated in the name of Jesus and the Church, so I am struggling to forgive God for letting that happen to me. I was brought to tears as I began opening my heart back up to him. It will take a long time but it felt hopeful to begin releasing my anger… peaceful as always I have received physical healing in my strained shoulder and filled with peace and gratitude. I have a sense of peace and lightness after years of abuse. These monthly deliverance prayers have been instrumental in my continued healing.I had a feeling of dread coming into the prayer session. I left with a feeling of joy. My son happened to join me for the session, since he was with me while I was driving. It was completely unplanned. He felt a weight lifted immediately at the end of the binding prayer. Praise be to God. Absolutely wonderful! All day today, starting at noon, I began to feel increasingly "off". I got very tired and achy. I was really just holding on until the 7pm log-in time. Then during the session, I felt increasingly better. By the end I felt great. This was a powerful event. I enjoyed all of the prayers, and talks. I kept saying "wow! this is exactly what I needed!” I always feel better, lighter, more peaceful. It was a blessing. I felt released… It is always tremendously healing….today I cried tears of release and was so uplifted afterwards GOD These monthly deliverance session I have been doing for the last four years - they have brought so much healing, peace and forgiveness and returned our prodigal son. Because of these healing prayers our family has been restored! I experienced great peace and joy. I have no words to express my gratitude to Monsignor and to all his staff at Saint Michael Center for these events, it’s been a blessing for me This was a really powerful session. Felt lighter, more joyful and a lot more clear minded It felt like a full spiritual bath of healing, rebuking the evil one and his lies, and renewal. Until recently I didn’t realize the Cathodic Church offered healing / prayer sessions like this. I was desperate and got into kundalini and occult and they talk about healing generational things…Blessed I was led here. Thank you for helping me and so many. I still struggle with pride, and unforgiveness after a childhood of physical and emotional abuse; but these sessions, coupled with weekly confession and prayer, have opened up my soul and mind to the love and mercy of God. I needed this so bad. Thank you Jesus for gifting me with the session and all its blessing. I have been attending for about one year. I was the victim of sexual assault as a very young child, and by family verbal abuse afterward for decades.I suffered additional sexual assaults as a young adult, among other issues. New Age self healing (various) did not help. Earlier sessions, I would fall asleep or get sick, cough and always would sway like a cobra, and shudder during casting out prayers. Now, any reaction is very weak. Uplifting and cleansing experience.I have become more grateful and more aware of how present God is in my heart, in my life, and in our world. I feel the peace of Jesus, and His love and forgiveness. Today, I stayed at work for this deliverance session as there is always tension at home with my husband (more than usual lately)…Today, I came home to slightly less strife which is a welcome change. Forgiveness prayers: it is like bricks are being taken off of my back. I have a very dysfunctional family with zero contact and these prayers for generational curses help me accept it and feel secure in God's love…Thank you for having these monthly sessions we are lucky to have you all at St Michael Center Peaceful Holy My third eye was opened by a Tibetan guru many years ago without my permission or understanding of what was being done to me. I've been unable to have a discussion about it as most people think I've gone off the rails. I am grateful that you have acknowledged that this is a real thing and to also offer prayers to help correct and hopefully reverse the error and unholy ties. Thank you so much for these prayers. For the first time ever I genuinely want to forgive my enemies. The way the prayers were structured was perfect. Cradle Catholic who “left”Church at 18. After 40 years returned. When I started the sessions I fell asleep. I have always struggled with being tired and anger. I suspect I had “Klingons” from childhood due to sexual abuse and various experiences. Today and the last few sessions I just had so much gratitude and that I can contribute my prayers for support of those in the midst of struggle.
