Father Michael is Great!

We loved having Father Michael as the officiant for our wedding. Him and the folks at Divine Mercy Church were very friendly and warm. We enjoyed his Mass and couldn’t be happier with our wedding ceremony. It was absolutely beautiful. Father Michael is very comforting and lighthearted, even cracking some jokes during the ceremony that helped relax a very anxious groom. You can tell that he really cares for the couples he marries. Thanks again Father Michael!

Blessed beyond belief

Where do we even begin? Having Father Michael officiate our wedding was an absolute blessing. From the moment we first met him, it was clear that he is not only an incredible Catholic priest but also a genuinely compassionate, thoughtful and accepting person. Throughout the entire wedding process, he was a constant source of support and guidance, always there with a kind word or thoughtful advice whenever we needed it. His warmth and sincerity made us feel truly cared for, and his responsiveness put our minds at ease during what can be a stressful time.

On our wedding day, Father Michael brought a sense of calm and profound meaning to the ceremony, making it all the more special for us and our guests. His professionalism and deep wisdom were evident in every aspect of his role, but what truly stood out was the personal connection he created with us. We feel so incredibly fortunate to have had him there to celebrate this sacred moment in our lives.

Father Michael didn't just officiate our wedding; he became a lifelong support in the process. We are forever grateful for his presence, and we will always cherish the memories of that day, knowing we were blessed to have him by our side.

Father Michael is great!

Had the best experience working with Father Michael. He was able to give us the closest we could get to a traditional catholic wedding outside of the church. He is funny, kind and very responsive. Would definitely recommend!
