I absolutely love this priest and his no nonsense approach to teaching about our Catholic faith. We need more priests like him!

[@waybacktoGod]

Dear Robert, It was an absolutely amazing talk. He doesn't worry about the camera at all. Dear Robert, the "useless " second camera gave you the feeling of security , so this one played an important role. It was a good decision to take two cameras with you. ) Thank you very much for interviewing him. Thank you, Father Leon, for giving the opportunity for the interview. 😊

[@sliglusamelius8578]

Father Pereira is the best! His story is quite compelling, and he is so modest and humorous.

[@monicabraicu6255]

Great interview! I enjoyed you both! God bless you! Fr. Leon is the BEST!

[@marytygett4189]

Excellent interview. Thank you Robert . Thank you Fr Leon . Prayers continue 🌹🙏☘️

[@michaelquinn5064]

Great interview Robert, Fr Leon is a gentleman. God bless you both.

[@liw12]

Fr Leon is lovely and very funny, he tells a story of his friend a protestant coming over for dinner, and he was saying we catholics should know our bible better than protestants. His friend arrives for dinner an fr Leon was in the shower so the friend txt him saying: Revelation c3 v12 Behold I stand at the door & knock if anyone should hear my voice I will enter & dine with him. So fr Leon txt him back: Genesis c3 v12 behold I heard the sound of thy voice in the garden but I was naked & afraid & hid myself. 😆😆

This made me laugh out loud 😂😂💕

[@MsDormy]

That is brilliant!! 📖👌😇🙏

[@liw12]

@@katrinagiovanni891 a friend of mine was talking to him in Medjugorje and she said to him that the woman always get the blame as in Eve in the garden of Eden an fr Leon said to her why on earth would any woman discuss her dietary requirements with a snake in the first place 😆😆😆

[@jasonpelafigue6956]

Excellent interview. It was so personable. Fr Leon is so intelligent and knowledgeable and yet so humble and humorous. I will be praying Continued conversions, not only in Ireland, but throughout the world.

[@johannachristinaodriscoll4236]

Just looked at the video. Yes it is a great interview. Fr. Pereira was very interesting and He gave great spiritual advice. It awoke in me the desire to do an hour of devotion before the Tabernacle where Jesus is Present. Thank you for your dedication to God and Encouraging His people back to love of the Holy Eucharist. Viva Cristo Rey

[@adrianbrickland1333]

Powerful Interview Robert and we no when Fr Leon spoke about our lady wanting the full Holy Roseary and monthly confession is when Red legs mess with the camera powerful praise God your doing amazing work Robert 👏👏👏

[@cindyjohnson6266]

Excellent “ conversation/ interview” , I agree about men on the fringes, and how powerful to see Dads involved in the process of childrens most important relationship with Jesus in the Eucharist . Thank you for this important sharing! It’s perfect as is. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

[@dija5578]

I am listening for the 3rd time..This time I put on the English subtitles to make sure I grasp all the words spoken.. and just for the first time heard Fr Leon state the 5 Stones in relation to David and Goliath.. the sling shot with 5 stones! So amazing! Just love this interview!

[@JosephVallowe-bt9vu]

Great interview. Father Leon is always engaging and informative. Thanks for the camera drop warnings, but it did not diminish the inspirational value of the piece in any way. Thanks for doing and sharing this talk.

[@MsHburnett]

Fr Leon. Wise priest

[@dija5578]

Satan obviously doesn’t like the Five Stones... Powerful and yet so humble a discussion... Thank you, Robert for sharing it..

[@paulinemaher5056]

Thank you for making my hart feel good

[@lukemccann]

I was at my friend’s prayer group tonight, which Fr Leon suggested to him to start up when he went to Medjugorje in August. I also met Fr Leon in Medjugorje in July. Our Lady is working in special ways at the moment. 💙🙏🏼

[@thecatholicman]

Lot of graces coming from that place.

[@mycharmed12]

Fr Pereira, God bless you 🙏 Yes the peace is not the definition of the world peace...Peace is the right relationship with God.

[@josephinemccormack3919]

Thank you Robert and fr Leon God bless you both 🙏

[@kelly17333]

Thoughtful, and Professional interview!

[@dianebeaulac9989]

Such a nice interview, really enjoyed it and took notes. Canada

[@cybereye2]

We must own our faith in Ireland. I am guilty of not stepping up and blessing myself when we pass a church or saying grace when I n a restaurant etc. The demonic doesn’t want you to record this, particularly in relation to our Holy Mother…

[@thecatholicman]

We do indeed

[@marleyb6506]

It’s funny how the camera dropped at the mention of the Rosary & Confession too!

[@thecatholicman]

Indeed !!

[@sheiladumigan451]

Awesome!!!

[@danhealy3261]

Father Leon .a sound man

[@R.I.S.E.]

I appreciate an UNEDITED interview more. It allows me to absorb the messages - so to speak - as a WHOLE FOOD, as opposed to a PROCESSED FOOD. The audio is clear. The video is steady. The voices aren't loud. The conversation is raw & sincere ... so, many many many thanks!

[@belindacahill4005]

Lovely interview with Fr Leon.. really enjoyed it and thank you for sharing Robert.. I was in Medugorje 2 weeks ago for the first time and loved it.. and really enjoyed listening to Fr Leon as I did all the other priests.. lovely experience and I can’t wait to return… God Bless. 🙏🦋🙏

That was a wonderful interview, thank you so much for sharing such great perspectives that are so much needed in the world. I’m English and it’s very true that there is so little faith in my country today.

[@davidcostello2638]

Lovely interview I'm so sorry I missed the Derry meeting I find it so hard to travel a distance please Emaculate Heart of Mary pray for us all whom wish to adore CHRIST may be enabled to do so in some small way ❤️🙏✝️

[@FaithQuestionsAndAnswers]

I'm going to listen again...

[@jackieodonovan9704]

Hi ya, 👋 absoloutley fabulas, you have in my mind thee answer by pinning down whats needed most!! FATHERS BLESSING THEIR CHILREN AND BEING STERN IN THE FAITH, it all followes on naturally when the father is active in his faith and obviously centered in "jesus and the holy family" i applaud 👏 you for highlighting this 👏 🙌 it is the answer to a united family to where the children go on to do the same in their lifes, im married 31yrs n trying to keep the faith on my own is detrumental!! For what ever reason no matter what the mother says or does its the FATHER the children look up to and follow his example!!! Luv the interview as it was v.natural and anyone who has eyes to see knows why camera acted up! Thank you may god be your light n protection in your lay ministery 😇💥🕊🙏🙏

[@teresaalvarez7372]

An amazing interview Robert if we only can start a group of righteous and faithful men in the United States and spread to the whole entire world we need to pray what the Lord and Blessed mother give us that guidance for it to be done. I am so glad you did not cut out the difficulty of the interview because that Satan doesn’t want all of us to hear what we need to do to maintain our faith. What a wonderful father Leon Who is clarifying with all this confusion that is coming from the Vatican what we have to renew in our faith. Maintain that fire of the Holy Spirit in your heart and may that movement of good examples of men in Ireland spread. God bless you your family and the movement of all these wonderful men that is going to make a big difference in Ireland I pray for you and the movement. God bless🙏❤️

[@bernadettecarolan8176]

I always bless myself in whatever restaurant or hotel I am eating in Ireland 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@bernadettevaughan]

I have been going to Medjugorje since 1987 and believe it is a very special place. Fr Leon is a wonderful priest whom I have had contact with. He is so witty. Last July while myself and my husband were there the reading at Holy Mass that morning was about Adam and Eve and the eating of the apple. I was having the craic afterwards with Fr Leon and said to him, ‘did you listen to the reading this morning? The poor woman is always blamed. It’s terrible that the man blames the woman’. As quick as a flash Fr Leon said to me, ‘what do you expect? Any woman that discusses her dietary requirements with a serpent needs to be examined’! All I could do was laugh. A wonderful man and holy priest. A very genuine no nonsense person.

[@gerrymccarthy9568]

Only saw this tonight. Very impressed by Fr. Leon. Pray for Pope Francis.

[@patriciamontouto5276]

Great interview...God bless

[@glorybe7500]

7:57 to 8:37 Amen, Amen, Amen!!

[@marycannon2653]

Great interview. I love listening to Father Leon he talks sense. In Ireland at the moment we have priests who have a vocation and then we have priests who have jobs as priests and the difference is astounding. We’re also overwhelmed by political correctness and sometimes it’s down right nonsensical women for this and women for that instead of getting the right person for the job be it man or woman. Father Leon also spoke of inclusion but repentance has to be part of the inclusion not what the synod of synodality is trying to coerce us into believing

[@phoebedigs1356]

That was wonderful, thank you!

[@gogirl1513]

Good job

[@aineoscanaill2377]

Robert, really good interview. I could listen to Fr. Leon all day, such a Holy priest. It would have been nice to get his thoughts on what’s happening in the church currently in terms of the attack on tradition etc but perhaps that was maybe too controversial to cover. Funny the camera collapsing at those two points!

[@alicecairns6184]

Thanks

[@ProphecyPrepper]

The gimbal might need recalibrating. I try to get a good balance of the phone on it before powering. It makes it easier for the gimbal. If it’s for a long time in a position like this, I will also have it charging from a power bank charger. I recommend anker power banks.

[@thecatholicman]

I had it fully charged, and I’ve used it a lot for other interviews.

[@ProphecyPrepper]

@@thecatholicman Hopefully it’s a one off. But with mine, the gimbal is probably at fault somehow. Hope it gets sorted. 🙏

[@capecodder04]

I thought the interview was great and the interviewer did a good job. I didn't think that there was anything the interviewer did that was annoying in any way and I thought the conversation flowed very well and Father Leon gave some good information. I only wish he mentioned something about the reverence and importance of kneeling and receiving on the tongue at altar rails like he has in other talks that I recently saw.

[@nonine5304]

Adoration has the highest effect on our lives. Do anyone remember the miracle of the Eucharist happened with St. Clare? St. Clare and St. Francis of assis from rich family, left everything for the sake of Christ. And when Clare was in convent in adoration, her.father sent guards and some people to take Clare back to his house. But at that time those guards could not carry her away from the presence of the Eucharist in adoration.... she was so heavy, that they could not carry her.... and they walked away. Trust in God... in the blessed sacrament... spend time in adoration and rosary. Much love from south india. If qnyone want to know the power of Jesus... please do visit retreat centre in south India, place is Potta in the state of Kerala.

[@colletteboland2984]

God bless father, leon, they should be no wemon priest, they need just keep the faith, sweet and simple, sweet jesus christ our lord and saviour amen x viva christo ray amen 🙏

Great interview despite auld red legs trying to sabotage it. Lol

[@PradeepSK1978K]

Fr Pereira looks like Mahatma Gandhi

[@patriciamontouto5276]

I like listening to you ..I think when interviewing, you dont have to keep saying yes or nodding your head ..No hard feelings..I pray that I become more in love with the EUCHARIST...PEACE IN JESUS

Heart speaks to heart friend.

[@FaithQuestionsAndAnswers]

I'm not alone in thinking this 🙏😃

[@chrisg.ramirez8315]

Old red legs doesn't want y'all to go to confession, check it where the camera falls. Who wants to succumb to that? By the grace of God thru the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I go to confession every week to be as worthy as I can to receive our Lord at Holy Mass, thanks be to God

[@FaithQuestionsAndAnswers]

Im sorry but a bit of critical comment/advice here but you have asked for it on numerous occasions. Your constant ya ya ya was very distracting, I wonder if the stand falling over was the Lord saying shut up for a minute Robert lol, but he came through better the second half, I could not concentrate on anything he said, to start with, is there any way you could edit it out I wonder as it was a good interview... God bless ✝️🙏

[@thecatholicman]

Yes, I realised that after the interview, my apologies.

[@eileenkelleher6660]

@@thecatholicman welcome to the world of spiritual attack..call on the Precious Blood of Jesus to protect your tech and your conversation before you begin..loved the interview..Fr Leon heard my confession in Medjugorje..kinda fun!! Beautiful man and well done you for all that you're doing..we need strong,courageous and faithful men to bring all the children into the Faith. I heard a statistic last week that said if fathers are practicing, 90% of children will follow his example whereas in the case of the mother only in the family attending Mass and the sacraments its only 50%..God Bless all that you're doing.Can you please put out the word too, the women's world rosary is starting on the 8th Dec, feast of the Immaculate Conception.We're doing it in the Grand Parade in Cork at 17.45 ..after work..please spread the word and see if other women will organise it in their cities and county towns...bring the girls, a cushion!(not as tough as the men) and a tea light (battery one) or torch on a few mobiles will do too...but the place is well lit up anyway and we'd love to have the men too to pray on the margins like we do at the Men's Rosary...Thanks again

[@caolainhession]

I'm happy father Leon isn't afraid to talk about race and ethnicity 31:24 Now I know why you don't care about the ethnic replacement of the Irish people cos your married to a Slavic woman. I still regard you as my brother in Christ keep up the good work brother

[@MsDormy]

That’s a bit hard on Robert.

[@caolainhession]

@@MsDormy it's the truth. When he ignores every question I ask him about ethnicity he shys away from it every time due to fear of being labelled R word. Christian men need to man up. We are in a war Christ will give Robert courage but he must desire to be courageous
