    I did enjoy the Q and A conversation with Fr John, Mark and John Paul. I am an EWTN member and intend to offer some financial help to some seminarians studying for the priesthood when I retire. In some of my little ways, I want to help the young ones who want to serve the Lord.

    Love the teaching during the homilies! I have learned so much over the 33 years I have watched mass. It is nice to have the variety of personalities from each priest. Thank you for being so available for confessions too, it is not like that everywhere. Thanks for the reminder to pray for vocations, and we truly need stronger families. Could you maybe sometime give a talk on how to do adoration? It is truly amazing what Mother Angelica and your community have accomplished.👍🕊❤️🙏🏻

    EWTN is a gift from God. Mother Angelica certainly knew how to listen to the Holy Spirit. I believe she still from heaven inspires her priests to be holy. Like many I included EWTN, priests, brothers and all who serve and contribute to helping us on our spiritual journey. Thank You and God continue to guide you.

      @garythielen5314 3 роки тому +3

      Dana Danielson yes! The Choir are absolutely amazing and the music Director Derek. One of my favorite is Zack I love his powerful voice. I wish I know all their names.

    • @sandyrausch1999
      @sandyrausch1999 3 роки тому +2

      Yes, Derek puts so much love and work in making mass so reverent and meaningful for all of us. The choir, Zach, Lucas, Deborah, the red-haired young men who sing, (they look like brothers, and there was a video of Mother at Christmas with children years ago with two red headed boys, wondering if they are the same two?)and the young man who sings the Divine Praises on Sunday night vespers, the young man who cantors the Alleluia verse and has long hair, makes it so engaging. I can cover my eyes and almost tell who is singing, as I am sure others can too. I also like the two tiny young women with great voices. The altos are awesome, so devoted. Just wish I had all the music and words to same in hand. It would be fun, having been in a choir, to see them practice, that would be interesting. 🎼🎼🎼

    • @garythielen5314

      Sandy Rausch I really listening to the Choir group, I wish I know all their names, there’s this long dark hair lady always have her hair (ponytail) her voice and high notes are amazing. Listening to them is heavenly, and I watch the holy Mass everyday. We love all the Franciscan Friars!

    Oops. I thought that I was doing a search on UA-cam. But now I'll make a comment:
    Thank you so much for these excellent informative Vlogs. Also, I never miss your Daily Mass. I have been watching EWTN since 2013. I was preparing to go into RCIA in August that year and found your channel in March. You helped me to understand the Mass. God Bless you all for your Service to God and Community, and your Teaching.

    My husband and I have been watching EWTN for years and have been visiting there every year for the last nine years, hoping to visit this coming October, God willing. 🙏🙏🙏

  • @shirleyeliakis7138
    @shirleyeliakis7138 2 роки тому +1

    I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all of you for bringing the Holy Mass and Rosary to us every morning. I cannot always make it to Sunday Mass and find some comfort in being a TV audience "participant", if that is an appropriate term. I came from a miserable place and found the comfort and mercy I desperately needed by watching. Now I only watch EWTN...
    and I go to UA-cam to pray the Saint Benedict Medal Prayer, the Divine Mercy Chaplet, as I am often awake @3am ( geriatric discomforts😅🤣) which completely takes my mind and heart to gratitude. I also so much love the Gregorian Chant Rosary and have learned the Latin except the Credo and Salve. I did finally "get" the Fatima Prayer recently. Sorry I am rambling, but I wanted to thank you, all of you for bringing Jesus to us every morning!

    If I ever saw any of the priests or brothers from your friary, I would want to go up to you and thank you profusely for the blessing you are. I guess people can’t hug anymore (Covid😢), but I would want to!
    Watching Mass everyday and praying the Rosary has given me so much strength.
    Each priest has his own special quality, so I don’t have a favorite one. You’re all wonderful. 🙏
    Your simple way of life has helped me to rethink my own priorities (giving up material things and simplifying my wardrobe, trying to be more charitable and loving......).
    Thank you for your ministry! I’m old (68) and disabled, and I can’t drive anymore. EWTN has helped me to accept my “homebound” situation, especially about suffering. ✝️

    It’s always nice to learn more about the priests and brothers we see regularly on EWTN, especially on a personal level. I look forward to more of these sessions. I will think of questions to ask, but for now, why is one a Brother and not a Priest?

    This is a great installment Father Mark, Father John Paul and Brother John! Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. Father John Paul, I’ve worked with youth in various capacities and had to smile when you talked about how the adults are getting as much as out of the ministry as the kids. It happens all the time when good work is being done.

    • @MLukacs
      @MLukacs 3 роки тому

      Still watching, and I have to add you all do a great job in front of the camera whether you’re preaching or on camera in any way. Also, it’s good that you live in community and not out in the world. We need to you remain focused, so you can help keep us focused. Also, Inside and Outside the Friary are both wonderful series. It’s good to hear that you have a place to workout and that you do. Mornings are the best time for aerobic workouts, Father John Paul, but I need to get a meal or two in before lifting. Yes! Your music ministry is the best! My family truly enjoys your music, and we are thankful for the time that your musicians and singers dedicate. We want to make a pilgrimage very soon. We are looking forward to meeting any and all of you. May God continue to bless you and your work!

    Not to minimize what you do, but you never had it so good! I wish that you would more reflect the teachings of St. Francis. Maybe go out more to really do missionary work to the desolate areas, areas that need more priests. It is sometimes disappointing to see that none of you show this real missionary work of spreading the Eternal Word, where it is truly needed. That is why I contribute monthly. I thought you would be a real reflection of my favorite saint not just in words, but in real action.

    I just wanna know, as a regular run of the mill Catholic what traditions would enrich my spiritual life given by the friars? One example I can personally think of that is something that is “different” is the seven decade rosery. Anything else?
