I can say without hesitation. You are leading people with knowledge about the Roman Catholic Church. With you videos I would say you most likely have influenced young people to take a role in an order, and to enter into holy orders. Fantastic job, Father
Thank you so much...this video has deepened my understanding of the sacrament of orders...it would be exciting if you post a video of your ordination as priest.
I don’t know who behind your videos....but the production is superb. The choice of background is very modern yet tasteful, visually appealing and high quality sound....plus informative as well. I don’t want to keep going on....but this is a production that any Catholic Organisation would be proud of.
sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me
@Alex Ernest Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Congratulations Deacon Brother Casey!! Thank you for everything you do !!! I am new to Catholic Chruch !! Thanks to you, You Make it easy to learn the teaching of the TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST !!! Thank You !!! And Thank You for your Book as well, just got it !!! LOVE IT !!!!!!
Congratulations! What a blessing to be ordained a Deacon! Really jealous of you ... (actually I'm always jealous of people ordained) ... am I simply too proud by praying to Jesus that one day I want to be ordained a priest?
Thanks very Father. I have a question. How can one know that he is being called to be a priest. Please make a video on this or refer to any. Thanks very much
Can you make a friar life video about you father casey i am going to be in the diaconate to be a permanent deacon and a acolyte like first i have to be a acolyte to be a permanent deacon.
Hi Brother Casey. Just a little point for you at 1:15 - there are some differences in titles in the church here in the United Kingdom and Ireland, where we hardly ever use the term "Pastor" or "Parochial Vicar!. We use Parish Priest to mean "Pastor" and we use "Curate" or "Assistant Priest" to mean parochial vicar. Also we have a term "Administrator" - this is mostly used to mean the priest in charge of a cathedral. For example, my local Catholic cathedral has their Bishop as Parish Priest, but due to his duties he gave the pastoral responsibilities to an Administrator, who is a Parish Priest but not using that title. Have you come across this in the US, as we never ever hear the term Pastor in the UK/Ireland, we usually associate that title to a protestant minister. Also, when will you be ordained a priest? I wish you all the luck and God's blessing in your ministry, and I hope one day you will visit Ireland and the UK?
What is the another different between bishop and priest? Bishop does/makes confirmation in Poland. Is the same situation in the USA? We have primate archbishop /there is only the archbishop of the Archdiocese of Gniezno /the oldest archdiocese in Poland founded in 1000 A.D./.
But what about auxiliary bishop and titular bishops and primates? (insert comically based anxiety attack here) I'm just teasing on that here, another great video. And for those that wonder primate would be the "first among other bishops" in a certain area and doesn't have any special powers attached. Say Primate of Poland would be the first, yet equal to, the bishops in Poland. And the title is used selectively. France I think have like 4 or 5 primates, U.S. and Canada have technically none (although Baltimore at times have the hints of that, yet no title is used.) Auxiliary bishops are the helpers of a bishop within bigger diocese, and titular bishops are ones not in charge of diocese (that can include auxilaries depending how you look at it.) Again great video
Kschychooo Ahhhh! Don’t get me started on auxiliary and titular bishops! Their existence challenges our very understanding and definition of the bishop and confuses everything! I have a rant style response... but I’ll keep it to myself... haha
It depends on the country. In Poland the most popular and liturgical so called - read in churches - is the Thousand Year Bible - 966 was the Baptize of Poland - you know - and our monks benedictins have published it in the thousand years of the christianity in Poland. I use the Poznan Bible /Poznan is the city/.
Chase Tenorio Vlogs Technically speaking, no. One has to be released of their vows in order to hold that office. In reality, there are many Franciscans who have become cardinals and continue to think of themselves as Franciscan. Cardinal Seán O’Malley of Boston is one example.
UzDawg50 I’ll technically always be “Br. Casey.” We don’t really use “deacon” as a title, but I guess it’s technically right. When I’m ordained a priest I’ll either be “Br. Casey” or “Fr. Casey.”
Ryan Carnes, OFS Well, I didn’t “forget” to include Patriarchs, I simply decided for simplicity’s sake to not include patriarchs and primates, as there are only a few in the Latin Church and because it would have required a much lengthier explanation of the different Churches in communion with Rome. Most people have not heard of Patriarchs in the West, and so they were left on the cutting room floor, for better or worse.
Brother Casey are you aware that you don't have to be ordained to be elected Pope? Leo X, Cosimo di Medici, was the last non-priest pope. His father, Lorenzo di Medici (Il Magnifico), one of the richest men in the world and perhaps history's single greatest patron of the arts (Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo), bought him the See of Lausanne when he was twelve. Rich as they were, the Medici were still then commoners (Lorenzo himself un batardo!), and the clergy represented a fast-track into nobility. Lorenzo's descendants included six kings of France, two Kings and two reigning Queens of England and Scotland.
How does one reconcile bishops having the role of 'High Priest' with that being the title of Christ's role in the New Covenant? I can understand bishops participating in Christ's priesthood in this way, but I'd just thought that in the Church 'High Priest' referred exclusively to Christ. If so many of Christ's titles are used also by his followers, does that not reduce the language we can use to speak of Christ's unique role?
There is only one priesthood, which is Christ's, which the bishops participate in. When they act, it is Christ acting, not the human being, so it is always about Christ. The bishop does not make the sacraments happen, and the bishops do not have authority on their own. It is only Christ who has authority and power.
Thank you, Brother Casey. It's reassuring to see a clear statement of Christ's unique role as you have just made. I was just still in the process of making the conceptual shift from Christ as the only High Priest to Christ as the only High Priest, whose role as High Priest the bishops participate in, each in his own diocese. In doing so I came to understand that calling bishops High Priests does not diminish Christ's role but says something greater about Christ-that he calls men to participate in his divinity.
Dioceses (plural) is said as dy-oh-sees. Diocese (singular) is said as dy-oh-sis. Diaconate was never part of the the minor orders. Also minor orders were instituted by the Church, not by Christ. Whilst not practiced today, a priest historically could ordain another priest. This change came about in the 13th century.
Because language is fluid, pronunciation is not quite as limited. There are at least three ways to pronounce dioceses. If you read the graphic on the video, I put deacon under the major orders. The idea that a priest could ordain was only theoretical (as he never had the authority) and was only first appeared in the 13th century. That concept did not exist in the early Church, and since it was never practiced, we can say today that it is not rightfully a part of a priest's ordination.
Breaking In The Habit I am just kindly correcting you. You have to know and address your faith correctly or non catholics will eat you alive. I will pray for you. Congratulations on becoming a Deacon. I enjoy your videos.
Catherine H. The bishop of each diocese is the supreme teaching authority for his diocese. He is not free from sin or error, but it is by virtue of his ordination that he is responsible for keeping orthodoxy (and orthopraxis) in his diocese. Are all bishops able to perfectly maintain this? No. But their official teaching must set the bar.
Breaking In The Habit I am aware of that..which at time presents itself as an excellent motivation to move..( and much of what they do is politically motivated and NOT motivated by official church teaching)..I am lucky enough to have a pretty much orthodox archbishop..
Congrats Rev. Casey Cole! I pray for more grace upon your life and ministry.
Congratulations Rev. Casey!!! God bless you and we pray for your new ministry
Congratulations, brother!! I pray that this period will be of great learning and a good preparation for your ordination
I can say without hesitation. You are leading people with knowledge about the Roman Catholic Church. With you videos I would say you most likely have influenced young people to take a role in an order, and to enter into holy orders. Fantastic job, Father
Very informative. I didn't understand a lot of that before. Congratulations on your ordination!
Thank you so much...this video has deepened my understanding of the sacrament of orders...it would be exciting if you post a video of your ordination as priest.
Congratulations dear bro deacon. God bless you for all the good work .You are too good.
I don’t know who behind your videos....but the production is superb. The choice of background is very modern yet tasteful, visually appealing and high quality sound....plus informative as well. I don’t want to keep going on....but this is a production that any Catholic Organisation would be proud of.
The12thSeahorse Thanks! That means a lot! For now, it’s all me, but I’d love to expand the effort some day!

Thank you!
Thanks very Father. I have a question. How can one know that he is being called to be a priest. Please make a video on this or refer to any. Thanks very much
Congratulations
Can you make a video about " the priesthood of all believers" as Paul refers to in his letter to the Hebrews.
What about a Primate? I've heard this term thrown around, usually concerning certain cardinals of a specific country.
Can you make a friar life video about you father casey i am going to be in the diaconate to be a permanent deacon and a acolyte like first i have to be a acolyte to be a permanent deacon.
wow so amazing
Congratulations Brother!!! Well done on making it to the (transitional) Diaconate!!!
Is it just me but for a split second I thought I saw a Jedi like costume that doesn’t look like the regular habit
Fr.Casey Tell me who is diocesan priest?Is he supposed to own properties & if yes can they really concentrate on being good shepherds.

Yes, that was included in the video. Bishops generally confirm, but priests can sometimes be given authority to do so.
But what about auxiliary bishop and titular bishops and primates? (insert comically based anxiety attack here) I'm just teasing on that here, another great video.

I do believe I know why you have that response :)
The Diaconate has always been a major order.
Yes, I corrected what I said by having the graphic on the screen. Wrong word slips out every once in a while!
I'd never pass the physical for ordaination.
You’d think Exorcist would be ranked higher
Holy Orders
Can anyone tell me which version of the Bible is used by Catholics?
It depends on the country. In Poland the most popular and liturgical so called - read in churches - is the Thousand Year Bible - 966 was the Baptize of Poland - you know - and our monks benedictins have published it in the thousand years of the christianity in Poland. I use the Poznan Bible /Poznan is the city/.
I want to be a deacon
How can a Deacon "marry" a couple if they can't act "In Persona Christy"...then the marriage Is Not a "Sacrament"...right?
@Rian Cleary So any two people can marry, they just need a witness? I believe in the Sacrament of Marriage.
Is there such thing as a franciscan cardinal
Chase Tenorio Vlogs Technically speaking, no. One has to be released of their vows in order to hold that office. In reality, there are many Franciscans who have become cardinals and continue to think of themselves as Franciscan. Cardinal Seán O’Malley of Boston is one example.
So is it still Brother Casey, or is it now Deacon Casey?
UzDawg50 I’ll technically always be “Br. Casey.” We don’t really use “deacon” as a title, but I guess it’s technically right. When I’m ordained a priest I’ll either be “Br. Casey” or “Fr. Casey.”
Brother you forgot to include Patriarchs, which are higher than Cardinals.
Ryan Carnes, OFS Well, I didn’t “forget” to include Patriarchs, I simply decided for simplicity’s sake to not include patriarchs and primates, as there are only a few in the Latin Church and because it would have required a much lengthier explanation of the different Churches in communion with Rome. Most people have not heard of Patriarchs in the West, and so they were left on the cutting room floor, for better or worse.
Breaking In The Habit maybe it would be a good video in the future, us Easterners like to get a little exposure from time to time :-). Pax et Bonum

Lorenzo's descendants included six kings of France, two Kings and two reigning Queens of England and Scotland.
One does not need to be ordained to be "elected" pope, but one needs to be ordained to actually become pope.

Isn't it officially called the Sacrament of Holy Orders? Orders can be any thing.
I'm not sure if it can mean "anything" as this is only one sacrament that relates to Orders. Officially, yes, the name is "Holy Orders."
Breaking In The Habit I am just kindly correcting you. You have to know and address your faith correctly or non catholics will eat you alive. I will pray for you. Congratulations on becoming a Deacon. I enjoy your videos.
As usual, sounds like Latin, to me, as in "catholic" = Latin
Make a friar life video. make a friar life video with you.
Okay you lost me with the bishop being in control of orthodoxy..( cough laugh)..but congrats..
