Reverend William J. McCarthy

Father Bill - I still pray for him every single day in my prayer time. I went to many of his retreats at My Father's House. He helped my husband in his recovery of alcoholism. I took him to one of his healing Masses and that is where my husband fell in love with his spirituality. He brought him back to his Catholic Faith!!! Way back then 1988- Father told me at one of his retreats that I would be praying with people one day. I was very surprised because I did not see me doing that. Today I...

Fr. Bill was my Spiritual Director and Good Friend. He was like a father to me! I really miss him. He was a literal modern day saint and he had supernatural gifts like some of the greatest saints had. I often benefited from those giftes and charisms! The amazing testimonies and stories I could share! The miracles! Jesus spoke to me many times through Fr. Bill! I really miss this priest!

Father Bill, , one of the most extraordinary persons, really a saint, I have ever met. He set an example for all of us who wish to use Christ´s Message as a guidebook for our lives. May he remember all of us in his prayers from heaven. Gratefully, David G. O´Brien

Love you Father. I met you in Pittsburgh. Thank you for what you taught me rest in peace. I'll see you again.

Fr. Bill , May you rest in Peace! You did a lot of good work! Thomas Folan

His wise advice made a huge difference in my life. I am forever grateful. I know he aided thousands. A model for all of us. More than any other priest, he reminded me of Christ.

It is with sorrow that I note your obituary, Fr Bill, but how can we be sad for long, knowing you are with your Lord whom you so beautifully taught us , or rather insisted, that we maintain a personal relationship with at all times, from now to eternity? What a grace and gift you were to me at a most difficult time in my life! I will never forget your love for me and everyone--the true love of God the Father. You represented His love to us so beautifully. Thank you Fr Bill, and please...

My Personal Profile of Father William McCarthy: Fr. "Bill"? Who is he, you ask?? -"No `Ordinary´ Priest"- ...In case you have not had the pleasure of "meeting" him, "Fr. Bill" was: "A Priest", and a: "friend to all"; -a warm, loving, Priest, -endowed with a magnanimous heart, magnetic personality, and possessing astounding endless energy! --Bubbling over with joy, and "reaching out"- with: "ease and know-how" -to as many people as he could possibly encompass during his entire...

I met Fr. McCarthy at the age of 8 years old while I was a student at St. Francis of Assisi School, in Torrington, CT. Meeting and becoming a young friend of this phenomenal human being, Father McCarthy is a man who has left a forever presence in my heart for so many reasons. My family moved from Torrington, CT, to Juno Beach, FL, when I had turned seventeen. Emotionally I never left this phenomenal human being behind~he remained, and will remain, in my heart and prayers forever. For so...
