The Journey Begins

[@elsyvalle8842]

God bless this young priest! I love his enthusiasm. Mother Mary, please keep him in your Immaculate Heart. Amen💗💜💙🧡💚💛

[@TonyOmila7x]

AMEN.

[@susanabad9793]

Thank you Fr. Casey for sharing the mission

[@Bochanable]

I wish there were more priests like you when I was in school. One things for sure, my mother would have loved you.

[@Zagarspupil]

I’m 31, and I just think it’s sad that at your talk on discernment, it was mostly older people who showed up. I wish more young people would go to talks like this! Thank you for what you are doing, Brother Casey.

[@TuberoseKisser]

Kolbe Disselkamp from an outsiders perspective, I think younger people don't participate because (in all respect) it seems tedious and most young people nowadays are considerably lazy, it doesn't capture their interest, most religious people I've seen people who will go to church but they aren't devout to the point that they will participate in most events, all in all I think it's just tedious or boring to younger people, especially since it sounds really long, again this is my perspective as someone who doesn't participate in these religions, just a young person.

[@WestsidePredator]

Young people go to Trad stuff, like Latin Mass. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@michaellancaster8221]

Urban II I was about to say the same thing. The younger people are at the Latin mass. They’re tired of yet another played out Novus Ordo newchurch program.

[@kimfleury]

eh....they're not at the TLM locally unless their parents take them, but I'm in a small city where people are pretty cynical anyway (and the TLM is in an even smaller village that requires a bit of a jog to attend at 8AM Sunday morning ... I'd have to leave home at 6 : 50AM to have 15 minutes prayer time before Mass). On the other hand, the TLM is well-attended in the nearest urban area, which is about an hour and a half away....but the attendees are the urbanites. Different cultures.

[@WestsidePredator]

KA Fleury I’m 22, was baptised by the FSSP at Easter, and drive 30 minutes to get to my Mass. I know plenty of youth who do. Different socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. Eh, Tradition rising 💪🏻

[@dennishudson781]

Thank you so much for the video. I'm new to the Catholic faith through the Easter vigil last year and I'm learning very much!

[@tomjary9284]

First learn the actual meaning of the word "Holy" okay .actual definition . It's important.

[@leeowwh]

I really loved your choice of music in the beginning and ending of the video. It's great to listen to it on earphones. Plus, the fact that you highlighted about spending mandatory contemplative time with Jesus daily( inspite of so many to-do tasks) , quite delighted me, and I found that giving meaning to all the amazing things you do for the Holy Mother Church!

[@josnajose9869]

I see an Indian probably mallu here..

[@marylakra4049]

Church is very beautiful. You speak very interesting that I like most. God bless you and your work. I would like that more youngsters should come for the service of God.

[@jpetemadre2724]

I am an early baby boomer from Chicago. We went to Cedar Lake for several summer vacations. It was PACKED with algae. It certainly appears to have been cleaned up!

[@patternbreak360]

Had to leave this out there! As you likely know from your religious education; your devotion to things like poverty in the name of your mission has been one of the most refreshing things in the world- while I don’t feel called to ministry, I still feel called, and by your example, the change has been so sweet when it could have been bitter and poisonous. Thank you so much!

[@linas1053]

Fr Casey, I love watching your videos, so informative and enlightening. May God continue to guide you in all the ministries that you do.

[@thewayofnektaria]

I'm so glad that you are doing this! I am so excited for your new series on here as well as Catholicism in Focus! Good luck for on your journey and you'll be in my prayers!

[@jocelynrosal9530]

God bless u father casey... thank u for ur love to our Lord Jesus Christ...

[@sandragoss48]

You were in Cedar Lake, Indiana two years ago! Someone should have told me. (Lol) I live in Lowell which is about 10 miles south of Cedar Lake. Next time you are in the neighborhood, I hope we bump into each other! Some years back the Novitiate for three of the Provinces was located on the property of the Friary. Some of us went to Saturday morning mass & stayed for a potluck breakfast. It was enjoyable. Know that I remember you & the Franciscan priests & brothers in my daily prayers. God Bless!

[@victorioustres339]

God bless you all the way Father Casey...

[@feliciajoachim5510]

I'm really enjoying your videos. It's great to hear your thoughts as you go through your new busy priest life.

[@seamusogriofa4182]

Wish we had friars like Casey here in Ireland, lovely to see young religious vocations also wish we had that in Ireland.

Reminds me of many of the monks and friars i met over the years. THere was an Abbey in canfield, OH. what great group of people. they had an Italian order of nuns handling the cooking .. sat. nights were fresh made pizza.. oh my .. so good.

[@jnuval]

Ooh, my friend and I are visiting Chicago next weekend, and Cedar Lake might be a cool place to visit during our trip. Thanks for the recommendation! :D

[@gosberttooleni]

[@elijahmwangi8086]

Awesome... God bless you for your mission. I believe so many people have a misunderstanding or lack of knowledge in rich catholic teaching and through this you are bringing to light the true teaching of the church #byTheWayPlanAtripToKenya

Wish, you could come to ft bragg, nc. I know the Parish would love to hear your talks. It's always hard to come to military bases around the world. May the Lord God, bless you and help you walk this summer, closer to His well. Amen

Good stuff fun stuff....off to a good start !!

[@reecemurray9977]

I converted to the Catholic Church last year and from that there has been A lot of blessings coming in my life but it seems like something is missing I love helping people and helping people learn about the true church of Christ the Catholic Church and I think I have calling to the priesthood or the religious life I just need to know how to get there

[@ianrobinson8974]

Reece, congratulations on coming into the Catholic Church. As you may know there are a number of places to go for vocation information and discernment. I feel the first best thing to do is have a deep and prayerful relationship with Our Lord and his Blessed Mother. I guess that you would belong to a Parish and subsequently a Diocese. Your Parish Priest would be a good start and subsequently the Diocesan Vocations Director. The non Diocesan Orders, like those which Deacon Casey belongs to, would probably have their our vocations contacts etc. Congratulations again! Peace and blessings for the Land of the Holy Spirit.

[@nataliabenoit4653]

Reece Murray oh my gosh welcome sweet brother in Christ! Ill pray for you

[@nataliabenoit4653]

And if your being called to give it all away just like He did for us then lay your life down for the King who created everything but yet came here to rescue this fallen world we live in if you can talk to your preist if not contact a vocations director sometimes on the parish bulletin they list a number for vocations if not ask the office at your church

[@jr400rl]

Praying for your true vocation...be holy brother.

[@davidbraun6209]

I just realized you were still (I think) a transitional deacon (e.g., wearing dalmatic instead of chasuble at Mass) at the time of this mission. This was 3 years back but you were ordained a priest in 2019, two years back.

[@TheVINCENT2563]

Can a Franciscan Friars held a mass with their trademark brown suit?

[@davidlrattigan]

Just discovered the channel a couple of weeks ago and really enjoy your content. Do you still answer subscribers' questions? If so, my question comes from my perspective as a gay, liberal Anglo-Catholic (Church of England), and that question is, What do you think of... well, gay, liberal Anglo-Catholics? Is it a big thing for you that some Christians have no issue with being gay (ie, and not necessarily celibate)? Is it an annoyance that some 'Protestants' (I never use that term for myself, but I guess technically I am Protestant) identify as Catholic but not Roman Catholic? Is it kind of having your cake and eating it?

[@BreakingInTheHabit]

Hi David, thanks for your questions. I don't really have a strong opinion about either issue, and really, I try to avoid sharing my opinions about things on this channel. The focus is to evangelize and catechize, and sharing how I feel personally about something is not an interest of mine.

[@davidlrattigan]

Thanks for answering. I guess the fact you don't feel you need to have or express a strong opinion answers the question in itself, and it suggests to me you are really focused on what is important - the gospel and living a life that is mindful of God and others, and encouraging others in doing the same. Keep up the good work. Hoping to read your book at some point!

[@davidlrattigan]

PS Another question, if I may: What other KZbin channels do your recommend or enjoy to encourage Christians in their daily lives, especially spiritual disciplines such as prayer?

[@Peachmanlove]

Is it ok to remove the habit during mass? I mean you already have 3 layers of clothes

It was definitely an older crowd, but there were a handful of high school students and young parents.

[@dan6506]

[@ebtmikado]

In how many videos are you going to complain about early Mass, and use the Last Supper vs. last breakfast quip?

[@BreakingInTheHabit]

ebtmikado Can’t know for sure, but I’m pretty sure I’ve only done it in two: the original time, and another time making a joke at the first one.

[@reecemurray9977]

Or to do something special in the church

[@ajayNemintane]

I want to be a priest just watching this. Only problem is im a female.

[@Barzins1]

I don’t know why I enjoy your videos so much. I don’t even believe in god. Sometimes is so attractive (not in a sexual way) in people who devote their lives to service of others. I donno. If I were to have a religion, it’d probably be Catholicism.

[@vexer2942]

Every sheep must decide for itself where it will be shorn.

[@BreakingInTheHabit]

I'm not sure I agree with this statement or understand why it is posted to this video. A sheep can't decide anything for itself, only the one doing the sheering. We don't determine our own destinies.

[@mary-ellendurkin163]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@billybob-bj3nw]

>there were graduates there so we celebrated them with all due respect, Brother Casey, Mass is not about celebrating or congratulating ourselves. It is about humbling ourselves before God. The achievements of man can be acknowledged after the Holy Sacrifice. Mass is about God, not about us.

[@BreakingInTheHabit]

And with all due respect to you, billy bob, this is a perfect example of why Jesus tells us not to judge. While you are right in what you say--the mass is about God, not about us--you have let your assumption about the situation lead you to criticize the celebration incorrectly. The fact of the matter, as you can see in the video, is that we celebrated them outside of church, after the mass was over. Nothing about the mass led anyone to believe that they were the focus of our celebration. Further, the mass is a communal act of worship, meaning that it is about what God is doing with/for/as US, not to any individual, and so it is not only important but necessary to call to mind the intentions of the community and recognize those present.

[@joyhsiuyinkwa3435]

3 pieces of clothing so hot....the vestments....

[@ChileExpatFamily]

Is this Catholic? It does not seem like it..... Really cool and all but if you are a Priest then you should be in public as well. Do you say your office? The Breviary? What about confession? Do you hear confession during the week and go as well. How much time in the Box are you doing? Seems a little slack to me?

[@kimfleury]

He's a transitional deacon studying for the priesthood as a Franciscan Friar. I think he said in another video that he is obligated to pray the Office (Liturgy of the Hours).

[@ChileExpatFamily]

And indeed he should pray the office. Good to hear. Jim
