As a Protestant who has been interested in the catholic faith for the last 5 years, watching this video several light bulbs of understanding have came on!! Feeling more strongly that I want to begin the conversion process. Thank you so much Fr. Chris for dedicating your life to the service of God. I will be praying for the Catholic church and it's members. Please pray for me as well. God Bless you all.

These conversations Father Chris had with his online date reminds me of myself 20 years ago. I was a devout Baptist who was challenged daily by a coworker who practiced Wicca. Everyday at lunch she would badger me about Christianity and the Bible specifically. She forced me to find answers to questions that I had never thought of on my own. The answers I found led me to the Catholic Church. I will be forever grateful to her that she opened up my eyes, whether she intended to or not. God has a great sense of humor and can use the most unlikely people for his greater glory 😀

I've been talking in circles for 15 years doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out religion, and this video is just hitting me like a train. All these lights are going off in my head right now.

I’m glad I’m converting to Catholicism.

[diannkelley]

Father, I will never leave my Catholic faith. I ALWAYS feel closer to the Lord after receiving communion and no other religion has given me or my mother such peace.

Father Alar, it comes down to bad catechism! I am going through the process of conversion and I can tell you that they have watered down Catholicism, I know this because I’ve been doing my own research. I am coming to Christ and his one and only Church this coming Easter Vigil and I CANNOT WAIT!

Fr. Chris, I'm the godmother of a few of my nieces and nephews, my sisters' children. One sister is no longer Catholic and the other does not like for me to tell her children what to do. Before I became their godmother I told my sister I was going to encourage them and to guide them in the faith, she agreed. I have not been allowed to guide them. Please pray for my family and me.

Fr. Chris, I enjoyed listening to you again in your Seminary Class among the many, very attentive audience. I felt I was with them, reflecting all the lessons once more and understanding them thoroughly the best I can. You’re a very good preacher and defender of our Catholic faith, whom we can always count on with so much confidence and trust in keeping our true faith alive. Thank you so much and God bless you.
