Beautiful story of healing and reversion. I have a similar story. I am a cradle Catholic and I became a born again Christian at age 37 after having left the church altogether for 18 years and living life as a married lesbian mom. After conversion I spent 10 years in the Protestant Church. Last summer I was lead by the Lord to research the Catholic Church and I had married civilly in 2021 to a wonderful man. I decided to revert 6 months ago and my husband was moved to convert. We are currently in RCIA and will have our marriage convalidated in May and we will both be confirmed on Pentecost! All glory to God I am 49 and my husband who was raised Protestant is 54!! 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️

Amazing testimony! What a journey you have had. Praise God for you and your openness to God

[@CocoWynn]

For the grace of God, your testimony shows LGBTQ people may be saved if they’re willing to cooperate with God and be healed. You should use your testimony to shed light and give them hope and healing. May God continue to bless you and congratulations on your upcoming confirmation!

I was born Catholic, stopped going to church after conformation. I failed and had all sorts of mortal sins in my life without God.Came back in my 30s not understanding the rules in my 40s now and seeing the light and my conscience bothered me so much it brought me to confession in my early 40s. I love hearing stories of people coming home!

[@mormonguru5984]

I am reverting to the Catholic church too! Been learning about others who are converting/reverting! This is very helpful!

[@HAL9000-su1mz]

Consider going to Adoration of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. Call your local parish and find out when they offer it. Then, just go and sit in silence in Christ’s Presence. Take your bible. Read scripture, pray, contemplate. Tell the Lord of your search for truth, of your doubts, worries, even fears. Then, be as patient with Him as He has been with you. When you receive the grace to know that HE IS THERE, you will be forever changed. Miracles occur in Christ’s presence - of that I can personally attest.

[@mormonguru5984]

@@HAL9000-su1mz thank you! I went to confession and adoration was happening parallely. I am in full communion with the Catholic Church now. It’s been a rough journey out of Mormonism

[@belindaventer8474]

Hi. Love the Sisters. But tell me how does that work, a Carmelite - married?

[@dsonyay]

48:52. The same thing happened to me many years ago. I was asked by a coworker about worshiping Mary, and also worshiping statues. I knew that we didn’t do it and that was all I could tell him, but I couldn’t explain it clearly because I had no strong Understanding of Catholicism.. Also, I had stopped going to church for many many years, so I really was in a bad time to explain Catholic teachings. It was that one interaction with a fellow Christian that was my beginning to coming back to the church

[@simonslater9024]

Only Catholic’s are Christian. Please read my other comment it will be too or second from top. God bless.

[@virgil015]

I'm a Lay Dominican. I highly recommend the lay orders. They take your spirituality a notch up. Great story.

Please watch the warning or illumination of conscience by Christine Watkins. Then Following Padre Pio who show’s the true beauty of Catholicism which is everyone’s true home! Always ask your guardian angel to help you and to communicate with your family’s guardian angel’s. (look up padre Pio and the guardian angel’s). God bless.

27:00 I once went to confession and I could see the priest thru the old fashioned screen playing on his iPhone during My confession. I told myself, I’m not here for his attention, I’m here for Gods absolution.

[@belindaventer8474]

Oh my word , that's terrible, what a disgrace to the profession - if he's bored why not just leave the church and leave it to someone who is serious about God!

CRADLE CATHOLIC is a term used to describe a person that has ALWAYS been practicing the Catholic faith all his life, from the cradle. Reverts are people who were from a Catholic family but then left the practice of the faith and then returned.

[@HAL9000-su1mz]

And 'apostates' are the SDA trolls like t*ny who is a cult member and filled with hate.

[@DadoMac]

Cradle catholic simply means born and baptized catholic, not necessarily practicing or devout.

[@DadoMac]

@@tony1685 That's the BIG problem with you and your false pastors, Tony. You equate God's words with you wrong interpretations of the scriptures. Again, review carefully how your sect, the Seventh Day Adventist was founded, when and who founded it. If you can just use a bit of common sense, you will realize its a false church. Get out or you're DOOMED!

A rosary has 5 decades. 4 mysteries all is about the life of Christ and his teachings. The joyful from the Concepcion till the 12 y.o. ( he was found in the synagogue arguing with rabbi. ) Sorrowful mysteries. When he is condemned and crucified. Glorious mystery: the glorious life of Mary and Jesus - faithfulness. Luminous mystery: is about the baptism of Jesus, wedding in Canaan, the proclamation of the gospel, transfiguration and the Eucharist. The rosary is the gospel summarized.

[@ebggabs3549]

Another Great story ❤

[@maobfh]

I restarted the video to clarify. Could not figure out, through listening to the video, how and when she left her 2nd husband and became a Carmelite. And what about the kids? Where WERE they. There was a very import word that flew right past me, or maybe in one ear and out the other. She is a member of The SECULAR Discalced Carmelites!!! They haven’t (necessarily) gone ANYwhere. I would have been more attentive (I think - though I listened closely to her testimony) or maybe it would be better to say that I would have given her story 100% of my focus if I had not been trying to figure out a puzzle that was not actually a puzzle, had I caught that key word in the first place. I have no reason to doubt that she could be a Discalced Carmelite Nun, either. The fact that she spoke differently than those I have known is silly. She speaks just fine! Don’t listen to me. I am mentally resorting and comprehending the video in a comment. Typing out loud, as it were. It’s unfortunate that the one Priest hearing her confession behaved the way he did. I will have to ask Jesus (right, the next time we chat?) why he didn’t slap him on the side of the head to get his attention. How do we know he didn’t? We don’t and it doesn’t matter BECAUSE she finally found her way home. I have been a Catholic since I was about 12 years old and was VERY offended by a Baptist Preacher and vowed never to return but in my 52+ years as a Catholic, I have only become aware of the prejudice against Catholics and the gross amount of mistruths (can I say LIES?) and hatred towards Catholics within the last year!!! Priests are human and are as prone to mistakes or bad attitudes as any other man. I also bore my priest when I go to Reconciliation. I get it, I am an old lady, what could I possibly have to say?!? I know, I know. Great videos! She reminds me, a LOT, of my older sister. Thank you for publishing her story! Also, if you would thank HER on my behalf, for giving her testimony, that would be awesome! Thanks!

[@alyciaoswald9776]

I was away from the Catholic church for 8 years. I just fell away for no specific reason. When I came back there were a lot of things to work through and so much to learn. People are human. They make mistakes. It is not rational to reject the faith which comes from God, because of their mistakes or bad examples. I could list the bad experiences that I have had, but that isn’t helpful either to me or others. We need to start teaching people to stop following their emotions and help them to be more resilient. When priests and lay people did bad things to me, I looked at it rationally. I thought that it is not right to punish God or take something away from Him because these people did something bad to me. I always understood the difference between humans and the divine institution of the Church and the true faith. My message is humans make mistakes, but that doesn’t make okay to leave the faith. You don’t get a pass to make a bigger mistake. Two wrongs don’t make a right. We need to own our own mistakes and stop blaming other people for them.

[@clarekuehn4372]

The word she probably wanted was charism. Carmelite charism.

[@danasandlin2435]

this woman was upset by a priest looking at his watch during reconciliation--think about how upset she might be by people who cheat on you; divorce you; leave you when you are sick (or sell drugs, or use guns on people, or worse); there are so many things that are so much worse in life than looking at a watch--sounds sort of like an excuse to just step out of the church, actually...at some point, what little things stop upsetting you? dts/usa

[@frisco61]

Sometimes it’s hard to remember that priests are human too.

[@PInk77W1]

I went to confession to a priest behind the screen. I could see him playing on his iPhone. I didn’t even mind. I came to be forgiven, not to be the center of attention

[@annem2922]

You can’t invalidate her experience. We have very good, holy priests and we must also acknowledge that there are some priests who don’t love Jesus and his flock. And some of Christ’s sheep have been hurt and abused by them. Why would we be cowardly and sweep that under the rug? We ought to pray for them so their hearts can be converted because Jesus said He will be more severe with those who were ‘given much’ May the Lord grant us Priests after his own heart. 💟

[@rccyberwarrior2267]

It could be considered a form of spiritual abuse and that is a very painful experience.
