I am having the urge to explore Catholism myself and I can't explain why. I've grown up protestant.

This sort of exhortation makes me feel like it's actually the culmination of SO many prayers for our separated brethren! What a miracle.

This is so wonderful. In these times, when the temptation is so great to leave, this is what we need to hear. Thanks be to God for you.

A wonderful testimony. It reminds me of my home town of Grand Rapids. I have been to St. Alphonsus church many times and it is a beautiful parish. God bless John and may God bring all of our non-catholic brethren back into the one Church.

Love this! Does the 12 stars represent the disciples? Jesus is in her arms and 12 stars represent the disciples? Is Judas in heaven?
