Priest & Beggar: The Jaw-Dropping Story of Venerable Father Aloysius Schwartz

[@DavidPayneTheFirst]

I get my reading list from the Art of Catholic Podcast interviews. Priest and Beggar just moved to the top of my list. What an amazing interview Matthew and Kevin!

Ever since I read Kevin Wells' book, I've been a supporter of the World Villages. Thank you Fr. Al, please pray for us!

Thank you for supporting the Sisters and the children. I'm one of the graduates of the Sisters of Mary Philippines Batch 1995. I was one of those kids who saw him when he was still alive. May God bless you and your family. I'll be praying for you,

I've read the book and couldn't stop reading until I was finished. If anyone knows Kevin Wells please tell him that his book inspired me to do a painting of ven. Aloysius Schwartz. I've dedicated the painting to all Charity people and beggars, former beggars. The making-of is on my channel. God bless you all. ❤

Thank you both for this inspiring video. Learning about fr. Al is a beautiful story of real Catholics in action. And an honest way to donate to the Real Catholic Church on earth. GOD BLESS fr Al and the Sisters of Mary. This true story would be a great movie, a true masterpiece of Our Lady in Action. Thank you both🙏❤️🙏

I agree with Father Al at 57:00 on his comment on Mother Teresa. They should get washing machines. That does not add to their humbleness or takes away. I see it as Muda. As Father Al mentioned, they should not be washing in the streets but helping people. The time and energy used in washing could be used for helping people, praying, reading, or resting. Father Richard Ho Lung from MOP in Jamaica inherited this decision from Mother Teresa. But recently I saw in a magazine from MOP that they got various washing machines. I am glad they quit on hand washing.

I don't think anyone could read this book and not be moved. Incredible story.

Reminds me of Father Damien

[@jeanonyeagwara4949]

I'd love to read and know more about Ven AS. I'm a social worker myself for the slums in Bangalore India. I also would not like to be known

[@pennyzahurones797]

Amazing story!❤

[@Joyce-kz8vp]

I never heard of him, as well.

[@camilleespinas2898]

Did Father Al ever become a Saint ?

[@ring0628-rfo]

He's on his way to Sainthood, now he is Venerable Al Schwartz as declared by Pope Francis, there are miracles being investigated for him to be declared as Blessed.
