JOURNEY HOME - 2024-05-13 - John Bacon - Former Anglican Priest
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 тра 2024
- John Bacon was raised Southern Baptist, and went to Beeson Divinity School. That seminary formation introduced him to the Church Fathers, and rather than going all the way to Catholicism, he discerned a call to priesthood as an Anglican.
Several circumstances, including the onset of COVID-19, caused him to reconsider the meaning of his vocation, and where he was truly called to be. For John and his wife, the intercession of Mary and the saints -- especially St. Boniface -- were the final thing that really convinced them they needed to become Catholic.

“I just know that Jesus and the Church are one.”
St Joan of Arc
'The Head has ascended in glory. The body is called to follow in hope'. a Fr. Chris I know.
Beautiful testimony of this our brother, especially his final message: we have to be like Saint Joseph, defenders and witnesses of Life.
Thank you very much and may God bless you both, your families, and all of us who follow Journey Home 🙏
This was wonderful 👏 Thank you for your witness 🙏 ❤
Thanks JH team and Sir John Bacon 🙏 an excellent inspirational story, and sharing your wife's prayer and the intercession of St Joseph in your family's life 🙏
Thank you Jesus for bringing such an awesome person to our church ..!
Thanks for your story. Your faith and trust is very inspiring.
Another great story. God bless. Amen.
What an outstanding man. How thoughtful and knowledgeable. I hope John goes on to even greater things.
Thanks for sharing your journey and especially for the work you do with our young people.
I appreciate you being here !
Sometimes my surrender feels like I’m giving up, throwing in the towel from just pure weakness and sense of failure. As it happens again and again I am starting to just trust that I have not been abandoned - that I just need to hold on and things will make sense about why I am going through it. God puts meaning in the madness. But it sure isn’t fun. Yes, faithfulness ends up being worth it but it doesn’t get easier. ✝️🙏❤️
If you need inspiration..take Scott Hann..he went all the way in academics trying to destroy Catholic Church.even wrote many anti-Catholic books..but when he found out that The Truth and the Church that Jesus built is in the Catholic Church..he has to give up everything..quit his job and source of income..he has to give up and abandon his ministry all the people he care about..he has to endure all his family going mad at him because of his convertion to Catholic Church..its like he found the rich treasure in the field but he need to sell all his livelihood became poor..but God provides and he cried tears of joy everyday because the more he learn about the Beauty of Catholic faith..the more joy keeps filling his heart..
If only my children knows how much i love them. They would cry tears of joy---Mama Mary said in one of her Apparition..if you have sufferings and pain..say 1 Hail Mary prayer until it became 150 Hail Mary and taste the cry of joy...
And today is the feast day of St.Boniface and I am listening to this 🌹🌹🌹🙏😊welcome home...Deo Gratias.Ave Mariam🙏🌹🌹🌹
I want to be missionary
Congratulations to John Bacon and thank you kindly for your most inspiring words.

🙏🙌🙏💝

People who wander from the Baptist Church to Anglicanism mostly swim the Tiber. Wherever you are, ensure you know Jesus and I hope your new home gives you peace.
Jesus said" birds have nests,foxes have holes,son of man has no place to lay his head" no synagogue would accept him,thats the price his true followers expect.
First comment? Yes.
You’re doing good work with this show.
Thank you for permitting me to add a time stamp:

My "favourite" part is when he is like, "Yeah, my wife prayed for us to get money and the Anglicans gave us money, which means we need to abandon those Anglicans I was shepherding and become Romanists." Really classy.
Because all of Jesus disciples were the most classy people. 🤭 This is only a tiny tiny bit of a wonderful story with the Lord leading and providing. Hope you have your own story one day!
@@LaurenBacon-lz8ue I do have my own story. I became Catholic (Anglo-Catholic) in 2013. I'm never going to be under the tyranny of the Pachamama worshiper who promotes sodomy; the one you call Pope Francis. To be deep in history is to cease to be Papist.
