15 years of an active drug/alcohaul user. Went to treatment, got home still completely lost and terrified. I thought I was dying one night in the room I was staying at in my aunts house. I prayed to Mary over and over again all night, sweating feeling like I was dieing. I was awoken by Christ standing just outside the room, 12' tall, bright, shimmering, flowing gold. He stared straight into my soul and told me I was going to be alright and that I never had to use drugs or alcohol again to be ok. I've been clean and sober ever since that morning. 10+ years now. Thank you blessed virgin Mary for sending me your Son to deliver me from evil.
She's beautiful with her constant intercession. I'm begging her too everyday,but I've seen her love. I'm escaping dv. It's bad. It's emotional, not as much physical anymore as we are older, but complete financial abuse. I'm planning an escape. I pray for her intercession.
@@elperinasoswa6772 That was before the resurrection of Christ. Before, prophets were the interceder between God and man. God would declare and annoint the prophet, like Moses for instance. But after the death of Christ, it's between Christ and us to the Father.
I am Protestant but has experience Grace of Blessed Mother Mary while praying on behalf of a friend stricken by cancer.He recovered has a remission.Mother Mary let me smelled strong fragrances of roses twice when I offered her dozen of roses in a Coptic Church,St George,Brooklyn NY
Amen 🙏 also almost everytime l pass by any Catholic Church with or without Statues of Mother Mary l recite Her Prayer Hail Mother Mary Mother of God pray for us sinners…and my eyes will swell up because of her Grace😢🙏❤️🌹
How can you be Protestant after experiencing the love of mother Mary u know what a Protestant means ??? You should look up what religion believes in the mother of Christ / virgin Mari ❤️🙏
Wow! I had the same dream when my family converted. My family grew up non-catholic (my mom had fallen away at the time) and when I was around 10 years old my uncle gave my family rosaries blessed by St. Pope John Paul II in 2005. The same week I had a dream about being in a Church kneeling (never knelt in a church before or even remotely understood what a Catholic church looked like), my mother suddenly felt called to go to Church again, and my brother randomly thought that I should go to a Catholic School. My father who was reluctant at first to come with us, met the RCIA director who looked like his mother who had passed away (even talked like her too) and that got him in the Church. God is good!
Your story reminds me of a lady at my church, who went to see Pope, John Paul, the second in person in her country. As soon as the pope gave her blessings, even just 30 feet away she felt a tremendous warmness, electricity go through her body, and from that moment on she converted completely from a lukewarm Catholic to a devout Catholic
His grandfather sounds like mine. Navy vet, took care of his dying wife despite her divorcing him, never spoke an ill word of anyone, equal gifts for my brothers and I, equal opportunity and love for all of his children and grandchildren. Was active up until 3 days of his death. Some guys simply have too much to do and God really does have to come “get” them.
My mom is a devout catholic. Growing up, my mom always allowed her children to make their own decision of what spiritual beliefs to follow, she never forced us to take on her beliefs. Still, her devotion to her catholic faith was UNMOVED. I've experienced many many difficulties in my life and never understood 'WHY ME'? Well, this year I felt the the Father, the Mother, the Son and the Holy Spirit in my bones and blood. After i survived a near death experience, I knew my calling was to follow my mother in her faith.... I pray to all of the Above, plus, my beloved saints (St. Jude, St. Joseph, St. Benedict) who have followed me and shown protection. Praise be to God!! My heart is full :) PS. I am mexican, Catholicism is a big part of the Hispanic Community and I've been embraced by my catholic people after returning home-- emphasizing unity and community, so I may give others (Whom may not believe) love and respect!
Thank you for your testimony! I was raised Catholic, and your story brought me warmth. I came back to christ recently. ❤ Jesus loves all his children unconditionally.
@@daveonezero6258who told you lies that the Roman Catholics worship Mary like God. There are 3 Kinds of Worship in the Roman Catholic Church namely: No. 1. LATRIA , Worship only given to the Blessed Trinity, namely God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost the name of the 3rd Person of the Blessed Trinity. It's not holy spirit as the 3 are holy spirits. 2. Hyper-dulia the veneration given to the Blessed Mother of God, Mary Most Holy. Only God is above her. All the Angels and Saints are below her; and 3. Dulia worship given to the Saints, friends of God who are with Him in Heaven (Communion of Saints as prayed in our Credo. Funny the heretics also copy the Roman Catholic Credo but never understood the meaning of "Communion of Saints" , they are called the "The Church Triumphants" , 1/3 member of the Church and are now in Heaven. The Roman Catholic Church has three members: 1. The Church Triumphants as already defined; 2. The Church Sufferings, those who are suffering in Purgatory. They need our prayers to get out there, and 3. The Church Militants those who are still living on earth and battling the adversaries. We need help from Angels and Saints and those in Purgatory to intercede for us to God.
Mary also led me to Jesus. Can't explain it but she was a huge reason I came to the church, still on the outside ill admit, but closer and closer to signing up to RCIA haha
@CadeBergmann Christ couldn't deny her, so you had no chance. His first miracle he didn't want to perform at Cana. But Mumma Mary told him to, and he couldn't say no to her.. My friend she is calling on you don't fight it, embrace her.
A Protestant girl woke up from a Coma .She told her parents ,she was woken up by a beautiful lady and was taught how to make the " sign of the cross" .Her parents were shocked as the only ones who make SOC in that country were Catholics. Eventually,they visited a Catholic Church.When they entered ,their daughter told them that the Lady depicted in the statue was the one ,who woke her up.I forgot if they eventually converted to the Church.This occurred last year.
@@hazlopestandweed im sorry, no.its because it was posted as a comment by an Indonesian citizen on another Catholic vlog .She stated that it became viral on SM in their country last year.I tried to Google source,but couldnt find it,as its possibly reported in their language,which i dont understand. I forgot also what vlog was it,but it was from late last year.
Yeah last week after mass i saw my deceased aunt at her house the day after i dreamt she was there. There’s no logical reason for it, but i concluded i NEED to pray a rosary for her since i recently started the 20 decade rosary daily. The night i saw her ghost, i dreamt of reading the word ‘salvado’ and had no idea what that meant but it means she was saved and freed. Our prayers really are needed by the deceased, remember the body of christ the church isn’t separated through death🙏🏼❤
I think sometimes people are scared to go on straight after the die to the light or become confused. But also are not deserving of hell or purgatory so don't go there either. I'm glad you prayed for your Aunt :))
I get so emotional when I think of Jesus on the cross.and when he mention staring up at him on the cross in church that day.made me start to weep😭😭.thank you God for touching this man's heart and leading him to conversion.God bless all of you and your family's.
"Stop acid, go to church!" Wow, beautifully said story. I'm glad Mary is bringing you that peace for your conversion. As a covert, Mary and the Holy spirit began with me with my first rosary. You talked about reading about your faith. Look into St John of the cross and St Theresa of Avila, they are wonderful friends to take with you into conversion.
In the Traditional she was not known asTeresa of Avila. She is known as Teresa of Jesus. One time she encountered our Lord asking her who she is. She answered our Lord, I am Teresa of Jesus and the Lord answered her I am Jesus of Teresa. What a wonderful God and Saviour. He loves us with an unconditional love. God be praised. In aeternum. Amen.
This was so moving to listen to; Shayne, you are beautiful human being and God loves you! I’m so glad you heard it from Mary. ♥️ Welcome home to the church!
Shayne Smith always made me laugh on Dry Bar Comedy, and now he makes me cry on Pints with Aquinas. You will be a strong voice for many who need your witness today. Welcome home!
The thing I love most about this is how choked up he gets. Because I always feel so embarrassed when I get choked up or cry when talking about how I feel about Jesus, and my testimony and it makes me feel better to see I’m Not alone 😂❤
I'm SO EXCITED about this!!! I love Jesus and Mary. I love standup comedy. I'm a huge fan of Shayne Smith's comedy. I prayed for his conversion. Mary re-converted me, bringing me back to church; she's been teaching me and helping me to grow deeper in the Catholic faith. She has been the source of a Mother's love, which I, too, am starved of from my earthly mother. Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Mary! Thank you, God! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@mattb4249sadly, Matt there is much you do not understand. Please read Scott Hahn's "Rome Sweet Home" for a start. We Catholics do not worship Mary but we recognize her role in Salvation and in THE Family. Study typology. And know that it was Catholics who wrote the New Testament, and later Catholics who compiled the Holy Bible. I was raised a Baptist btw, and entered Christ's One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church in 1987. 🙏
Wow, Shayne, I always loved you as a comedian, but now, more admiration for you! God bless you. This Hispanic woman will continue for you and your journey!!! ❤
About 15yrs ago, I was going thru depression, I got on my knees and started praying, and weeping, suddenly I felt like a warm blanket covered me and felt so much love and peace, and heard in my Spirit, a man voice saying " Everything will be alright son" I knew it was my Lord Christ Jesus ", that nigh was Wednesday, we would go to church, I wanted to hug everyone felt so much love and peace, told my pastor back then, what happened...........Since than I hadn't had that experience, but had 2 dreams of Jesus....❤❤
How Shayne tears up talking about Mother Mary is exactly how I feel when I think of her. Whenever I’m afraid or in crisis I cry out to her or recite a Hail Mary. She’s always there to advocate to her Son on our behalf, even when we don’t deserve His mercy or help. Just like a really loving earthly mom. No matter what we do, they always come to our defense and want to help, even if we were in the wrong, they still want to make things better and ease our emotional pain and burdens. Thank you God for the gift our earthly and heavenly mother❤
My family goes to that Cathedral for Mass in Salt Lake City when we go skiing in Alta for vacation, it has some amazing artwork. Also, what Shayne said about the Catholic Church doing real, material, transformative work for people in need is so true. I have gotten tired of politics, and I’m trying to focus more on doing what I can to help Catholic charities.
Don't help the Red Cross they're no longer Catholic. I guess you must be active and be present with what they are doing. May I suggest St. Jude Hospital? It was founded by a Catholic guy. I Don't know him really just read an article about him. Roman Catholics are the great guys on the planet. As Padre Pio said without the Mass the world will stop to exist. That's why Satan is attacking our Priest because without the Priest no Mass will be celebrated. Without the Mass there is no Transubstantiation. Without Transubstantiation Jesus cannot come as a Holy Hosts. Without the Holy Hosts there's no Communion. No Communion Jesus cannot live with us and we cannot live with Jesus. Therefore love your Priest, pray for your Priest that he will not be tempted. No talking bad about your Priest. We are all sinners. The Church is the hospital of sinners and our doctors are our Priests. Love the Holy Father and pray for him that Satan will not sift him. Love you all children of God. May God bless you and Mary Most Holy keep you. Laudentur Jesus Christus et Maria. In aeternum. Amen.
This clip as well as the entire interview are pure GOLD!! I don’t have words to describe the emotions I feel after listening to all your topics and how you weave the faith and Shayne’s conversion into everything! You have given me so much to think about. I pray that all young men watch the! Please pray for conversion of my son Matt!
I love this story ❤ and praise God. I know that warm love from Heaven you cannot describe. It’s beautiful. The moment of my conversion I was given the gift of tears. I feel His Love for others. I feel His Sorrows for others. A gift you have no control over.
I like this guy. I have checked out his comedy after I watched the original episode with him. I praise God for his change and for his intellect. Good guy!
I had two dreams with the Holy Mother. One was with the Virgin Mary and the second was with Our Lady of Guadalupe. I decided to go to mass and the day I went was the Nativity of the Virgin Mary. I will be receiving my sacraments during the Easter vigil this year. I am so thankful to the Holy Mother for reaching out to me and bringing me back to her son Jesus. I was raised evangelical-Pentecostal and had never thought I would go to any church. Now I’m in RCIA every Sunday and then attend mass with my husband who was raised Catholic.
Wowwww, You arrived just on time, She is calling You to her army, look for the Divine Mercy Texas messages to a nun there. Never receive the Holly Eucharist in your hand.
I Also listen to Father Mike Schmitz. And he’s one of the reason why I’m into my catholic faith more deeply. He gaves very relatable homilies/sermons and even answer questions that you have in your head.
The experience of "the moment of Grace" - it is so beautiful - it is sustaining - that one moment can and will sustain a person if they allow it - Truth is transforming - so happy for you - it is everything - God is great.
I've been holding prayer in my heart for Shayne for 3 years ever since i first heard him at DryBar in Provo. I'm so so so glad God has rescued this man. I was drawn to Shane's story and knew he could he a powerful tool in Gods hands. God rescues us from evil. I know he's rescued me.
Shayne, I am a 71-year-old woman who would be proud to have you as my grandson. I love you. Even when you were what you considered "bad," your light shone through and your heart was good. I accept you unconditionally and respect the man that you have become. And I delight in your ink. Thank you for shining your light, sharing your curiosity and sense of humor, and living your authentic life.
Our Lady is praying for us all....us sinners . Pray for the souls in purgatory where she brings them comfort. Those souls will pray for you. Follow fr Chris From the Missionaries of the Divine Mercy. Our Lord loves us all and wants us with Him in heaven
Beautiful, powerful testimony. Thank you so much for sharing. I've seen two of his shows on RUclips that he did in Provo at Dry Bar - and now to hear that after he did one of those, where he showed both a bit of his bad boy history and his good guy "want to do the right thing" parts of himself - to hear that our Blessed Mother was able to reach him is even more significant for me. He reminds me of Fr. Donald Calloway - living an impure life and being converted by the undeniable love and presence of Mary. Praise God! There's so much love and hope available to us thru Mary.
Wow. Beautiful story. I saw this comedian on Dry Bar comedy last week and howled in laughter...saw his act TWICE it was that good. Then come to see that he has converted to the one, true faith. God is GOOD. And the Blessed Mother...YES...She is beyond what anyone can imagine and LOVES her children. It would have been good to get the grandfather Last Rites...but if he was in a state of grace, then all would be well...and this man may now have an advocate at the throne of grace. Keep learning the truth Mr. Smith...seek out Tradition...start listening to Fr. Chad Ripperger...he is the most rational priest I have ever heard and he loves Our Lady. Welcome home, my brother...tattoos and all...we'll take ya:+) God bless~
My conversion story is also supernatural and I think when have saintly grandparents I think they pray for us in heaven. I returned to the church after over 30 years and it’s been my rock. Praise be Jesus Christ!
Thank you so much for sharing this supernatural conversion. Deo gratias. God bless you all. This story made laugh and made cried and laughed at the same time.
I KNOW,RIGHT!!! I think I visited that one as well, it was hard to find but I was desperate when I visited. It was open though! It wasn’t locked up like ours is locally. Provo doesn’t cater to us 🤣
He is so funny and interesting and so authentic... ❤ just so amazing how Catholic prayers can perpetually bear fruits even after we die. His grandfather's prayers and kindess brought him conversion. Amazing!!!
I’ve been trying to figure out what’s been drawing me back to the Catholic faith as I was perfectly happy with the Protestant church I was going to after recently being born again. One day I just developed an adoration for Mary that I can’t really describe, I just felt this love for her that wasn’t quite there before. I have a feeling that she’s calling me home to the Catholic Church (which is funny because I was Catholic growing up but fell away from the faith).
So sweet it made me cry a little when Shayne described tiptoeing into the church, not wanting to disturb the sweet ladies praying there. I imagined the love and warmth with which our Lady and Jesus must have gazed at him..
Listening to this beautiful testimony brings me to the importance of praying for the conversion of sinners and for ours family members… a very real example the our prayers never goes to waist. Mom and dad who are out there struggling with kids addiction or family members in troubles and sometimes feelings loosing your battles don’t give up! God is great!!! To him be the glory!! Thank you father for your mercy
Shayne, thank you again for sharing your story. I commented before on the full discussion, but I watched this clip today on the anniversary of my mother in law’s birthday. All of my children were very close to their Granny as we built a guest house next to our home were my in-laws lived the last few years of their lives. Both of them dying in our home. I love your description of feeling compelled to go to a Church, because I felt ‘compelled’ to share this clip with 2 of my 3 kids and ask my daughter to save it for her brother that may not be ready to hear it. Jesus and Mary love you very much and I know the LORD is using your story to bring so many closer to Him. I pray that two of those brought closer are my boys. 🙏🏼💗🙏🏼
Please show me scripture that says Mary is involved, in any way, in the life of the believer. She holds importance to Jesus's life on earth, but despite having no divine authority, has become an idol for those of the Catholic faith.
Mary isn't our mother. You're worshipping not Jesus Christ. He can hear our prayers. It's in the Bible. She cannot intercede because Jesus is her salvation as well.
I cry each time I view this. This is what I believe about the love & mercy of God !! Shayne gave Our Lord an opening…..& the love & mercy flowed forth!
Yes consoling loving presence. I saw her in my dreams 30 yrs ago, still vivid. A lady with white bluish clothing that shines like a light, talking to me that everything will be alright, God loves us. I was then a teenager afraid of y2k. Just what i needed that time consolation. I woke up crying with full of hope and love in my heart. Im Catholic
I can feel and relate to what he's saying. I think the word there is "Calling". I had a synonymous experience as him just recently, now I am trying hard to read and understand Summa theologiae and then started to read the bible daily starting with the four Gospels. I am a sinner as well and got the chance to confess my sins to a priest. And the moment he mentioned that my sins were forgiven by our Lord, Jesus Christ, I started to feel light and until now I can still feel high. Every single day I am trying hard not to commit sin and avoid the temptations everywhere. Praying through rosary is a big help to fight all of these. Amen to you Brother! 🙏
He really is so funny and will be such a blessing to the Church--he brings levity while sincerely taking seriously the Faith--so happy for him. All the best to our brother in Christ!
Thank you for sharing your story of conversion. May God bless you always. Yes, it’s so important to pray for our departed loved ones and that can intercede for us. Blessed Mother Mary, we pray for your intercession, be our salvation 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼
🆘️Sounds like a little bit like Father Donald Calloway's Conversion.Especially when he enter's the Church and see's all the Philipino woman praying the Rosary.Praise be to Jesus Christ.I believe the love and the seed's of his Grandfather's love that was planted in his heart at a very young age started to bloom.Praise be to Jesus Christ.Welcome home brother.Follow our Lady.And she will lead you to her son.🙏✝️🙏♥️🌿🕊⛪🕊🌿♥️.Theirs no coincidence.The prayers and love of our Grandparent's.My both Grandmother's were literally Saint's.They would have been at least 130 year's old.I understand.Beautiful Conversion.His Grandfather may have needed prayer's if in Purgatory.We don't know all the time.Beautiful Cinversion.Thankyou for this video.God Bless you both. 🙏✝️🙏
Aww you inspired me so much 💕 my daughter has anxiety because of her bullying she is 12 we go to church and because she dress in dark shirt and pants and her hair is long in her face. I'm struggling with the people just looking at her make so sad and mad . She wants to go to church with me .. I hope people have more compassion for our children.
Help her a little bit, My Best friend's daughter liked to dress Shaggy and dark but felt in her heart She should go to Church, so her Mother told her You can dress your regular way everyday but going to mass I want You to look your Best for Our Lord, and modestly, with colors that resemble heaven and angels and Our Blessed Mother, like White, Spring colours, and Our Lord and Blessed Mother that can look upon You there SEE your beautiful face, hair, femminity, Beauty, modesty and effort. So She bought her her soecial skirts and blouses and dresses for Church and other special occasions.

Beautiful story. Thank you for sharing and God bless. ❤
Were you raised Catholic?
His grandpa interceded for him. Beautiful.
Dead people can't intercede, it's a catholic doctrine which is Biblically heretical.
Only Jesus Christ can intercede us to the Father.

God be praised.
In aeternum. Amen.
This was so moving to listen to; Shayne, you are beautiful human being and God loves you! I’m so glad you heard it from Mary. ♥️ Welcome home to the church!
Shayne Smith always made me laugh on Dry Bar Comedy, and now he makes me cry on Pints with Aquinas. You will be a strong voice for many who need your witness today. Welcome home!
💯 believe you bro. Mary led me too! Out mother loves us!
This was the most real conversion experience. What a gift to the world and this young man. ❤❤❤❤❤
This is why I watch Pints with Aquinas - he regularly has such honest and moving conversations.
Mary our Blessed Mother is just so wonderful. Her love is amazing 👏
🙏
God bless, Shayne.
As well as you, Matt and Thursday.
And everyone else reading this.
The thing I love most about this is how choked up he gets. Because I always feel so embarrassed when I get choked up or cry when talking about how I feel about Jesus, and my testimony and it makes me feel better to see I’m
Not alone 😂❤
I'm SO EXCITED about this!!! I love Jesus and Mary. I love standup comedy. I'm a huge fan of Shayne Smith's comedy. I prayed for his conversion. Mary re-converted me, bringing me back to church; she's been teaching me and helping me to grow deeper in the Catholic faith. She has been the source of a Mother's love, which I, too, am starved of from my earthly mother. Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Mary! Thank you, God! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sounds like you have replaced God with Mary. The Holy Spirit teaches truth, not a created being. As Jesus said: repent and believe in the Gospel.
@@mattb4249sadly, Matt there is much you do not understand. Please read Scott Hahn's "Rome Sweet Home" for a start. We Catholics do not worship Mary but we recognize her role in Salvation and in THE Family. Study typology. And know that it was Catholics who wrote the New Testament, and later Catholics who compiled the Holy Bible. I was raised a Baptist btw, and entered Christ's One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church in 1987. 🙏
She brought me to her too through a friend and then suddenly during a holiday I received a Rosary. It was the 1st of May.
@@mattb4249who taught you the Gospel? Was it your parents? If so, then you’re replacing God with your parents
@@ninjaked1265 That statement makes no sense. I heard the Gospel and read the Bible. The Lord revealed the Truth.
Our Lady was happy to have you in church .❤ ....sending you Catholic blessings ...out of Africa xxxx
“God gives you what you need…just enough” ❤
Wow, Shayne, I always loved you as a comedian, but now, more admiration for you! God bless you. This Hispanic woman will continue for you and your journey!!! ❤
About 15yrs ago, I was going thru depression, I got on my knees and started praying, and weeping, suddenly I felt like a warm blanket covered me and felt so much love and peace, and heard in my Spirit, a man voice saying " Everything will be alright son" I knew it was my Lord Christ Jesus ", that nigh was Wednesday, we would go to church, I wanted to hug everyone felt so much love and peace, told my pastor back then, what happened...........Since than I hadn't had that experience, but had 2 dreams of Jesus....❤❤
How beautiful! Our Mother loves us so much!
How Shayne tears up talking about Mother Mary is exactly how I feel when I think of her. Whenever I’m afraid or in crisis I cry out to her or recite a Hail Mary. She’s always there to advocate to her Son on our behalf, even when we don’t deserve His mercy or help. Just like a really loving earthly mom. No matter what we do, they always come to our defense and want to help, even if we were in the wrong, they still want to make things better and ease our emotional pain and burdens. Thank you God for the gift our earthly and heavenly mother❤
My family goes to that Cathedral for Mass in Salt Lake City when we go skiing in Alta for vacation, it has some amazing artwork. Also, what Shayne said about the Catholic Church doing real, material, transformative work for people in need is so true. I have gotten tired of politics, and I’m trying to focus more on doing what I can to help Catholic charities.
Don't help the Red Cross they're no longer Catholic. I guess you must be active and be present with what they are doing. May I suggest St. Jude Hospital? It was founded by a Catholic guy. I Don't know him really just read an article about him.
Roman Catholics are the great guys on the planet.
As Padre Pio said without the Mass the world will stop to exist. That's why Satan is attacking our Priest because without the Priest no Mass will be celebrated. Without the Mass there is no Transubstantiation. Without Transubstantiation Jesus cannot come as a Holy Hosts. Without the Holy Hosts there's no Communion. No Communion Jesus cannot live with us and we cannot live with Jesus. Therefore love your Priest, pray for your Priest that he will not be tempted. No talking bad about your Priest.
We are all sinners. The Church is the hospital of sinners and our doctors are our Priests.
Love the Holy Father and pray for him that Satan will not sift him.
Love you all children of God.
May God bless you and Mary Most Holy keep you.
Laudentur Jesus Christus et Maria.
In aeternum. Amen.
Mama Mary always leads us to her son Jesus. Jesus loves mama Mary. Thank you mama Mary for leading us to your Son our savior Lord Jesus. 🙏✝️❤️
This clip as well as the entire interview are pure GOLD!! I don’t have words to describe the emotions I feel after listening to all your topics and how you weave the faith and Shayne’s conversion into everything! You have given me so much to think about. I pray that all young men watch the! Please pray for conversion of my son Matt!
Yes! I am praying for your son, Matt 💕
Amen!
May Matt be converted and may God use him powerfully to lead others to Christ through Mary.
When Our Lady is present ,, you have to cry ....I been through this often in the meetings of the Legion of Mary
I love this story ❤ and praise God. I know that warm love from Heaven you cannot describe. It’s beautiful. The moment of my conversion I was given the gift of tears. I feel His Love for others. I feel His Sorrows for others. A gift you have no control over.
I've loved Shayne's comedy for a long while and I had a very similar Marian experience that led me to conversation. This is all so good to hear.
I like this guy. I have checked out his comedy after I watched the original episode with him. I praise God for his change and for his intellect. Good guy!
I love this guy. A very human experience. Thanks for sharing. Mary is wonderful. Hail Holy Queen.
I had two dreams with the Holy Mother. One was with the Virgin Mary and the second was with Our Lady of Guadalupe. I decided to go to mass and the day I went was the Nativity of the Virgin Mary. I will be receiving my sacraments during the Easter vigil this year. I am so thankful to the Holy Mother for reaching out to me and bringing me back to her son Jesus. I was raised evangelical-Pentecostal and had never thought I would go to any church. Now I’m in RCIA every Sunday and then attend mass with my husband who was raised Catholic.
Wowwww, You arrived just on time, She is calling You to her army, look for the Divine Mercy Texas messages to a nun there. Never receive the Holly Eucharist in your hand.
That made me cry. Wow, so wonderful to hear that story. So beautiful
As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you... Isaiah 66:13
So beautiful
I Also listen to Father Mike Schmitz. And he’s one of the reason why I’m into my catholic faith more deeply. He gaves very relatable homilies/sermons and even answer questions that you have in your head.
The experience of "the moment of Grace" - it is so beautiful - it is sustaining - that one moment can and will sustain a person if they allow it - Truth is transforming - so happy for you - it is everything - God is great.
Our God is amazing.
Yes everyone needs Him they just don't realize
Incredibly moving testimony. Moved to tears and will keep Shayne in my prayers. ❤
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective! I have a feeling that grandpa was praying for him, and still is!
I've been holding prayer in my heart for Shayne for 3 years ever since i first heard him at DryBar in Provo. I'm so so so glad God has rescued this man. I was drawn to Shane's story and knew he could he a powerful tool in Gods hands. God rescues us from evil. I know he's rescued me.
Shayne, I am a 71-year-old woman who would be proud to have you as my grandson. I love you. Even when you were what you considered "bad," your light shone through and your heart was good. I accept you unconditionally and respect the man that you have become. And I delight in your ink. Thank you for shining your light, sharing your curiosity and sense of humor, and living your authentic life.
Welcome home Shayne! So happy for you. Pray the rosary daily! Frequent the sacraments!
Our Lady is praying for us all....us sinners . Pray for the souls in purgatory where she brings them comfort. Those souls will pray for you. Follow fr Chris From the Missionaries of the Divine Mercy. Our Lord loves us all and wants us with Him in heaven
Beautiful, powerful testimony. Thank you so much for sharing. I've seen two of his shows on RUclips that he did in Provo at Dry Bar - and now to hear that after he did one of those, where he showed both a bit of his bad boy history and his good guy "want to do the right thing" parts of himself - to hear that our Blessed Mother was able to reach him is even more significant for me. He reminds me of Fr. Donald Calloway - living an impure life and being converted by the undeniable love and presence of Mary. Praise God! There's so much love and hope available to us thru Mary.
I've had a couple of those beautiful experiences too. You will truly never be the same. God bless you
Wow. Beautiful story. I saw this comedian on Dry Bar comedy last week and howled in laughter...saw his act TWICE it was that good. Then come to see that he has converted to the one, true faith. God is GOOD. And the Blessed Mother...YES...She is beyond what anyone can imagine and LOVES her children. It would have been good to get the grandfather Last Rites...but if he was in a state of grace, then all would be well...and this man may now have an advocate at the throne of grace. Keep learning the truth Mr. Smith...seek out Tradition...start listening to Fr. Chad Ripperger...he is the most rational priest I have ever heard and he loves Our Lady. Welcome home, my brother...tattoos and all...we'll take ya:+) God bless~
Praise God for His mighty acts
I’ve been watching all the vids with Shayne and with every video its like I get closer to God with knowing how He works his power in others:)
My conversion story is also supernatural and I think when have saintly grandparents I think they pray for us in heaven. I returned to the church after over 30 years and it’s been my rock. Praise be Jesus Christ!
Thank you so much for sharing this supernatural conversion. Deo gratias. God bless you all. This story made laugh and made cried and laughed at the same time.
What a beautiful story of yours Shane. May Mother Mary bless you always and being more people to Catholicism and adore Mothe Mary🙏🏽
Man, Shayne is such a great story teller!
Mary is the best thing that happened in my life, her love is more than a real mother!!
Teared me up too when he started talking to his grandpa in the church.
When you talk about your grand father I listened to you attentively feeling good really. You are lucky.
Shayne finds like the one Catholic parish in Provo, UT. 😂🙏🏻📿🛐
I KNOW,RIGHT!!! I think I visited that one as well, it was hard to find but I was desperate when I visited. It was open though! It wasn’t locked up like ours is locally. Provo doesn’t cater to us 🤣
He is so funny and interesting and so authentic... ❤ just so amazing how Catholic prayers can perpetually bear fruits even after we die. His grandfather's prayers and kindess brought him conversion. Amazing!!!
Amen!
"Dying is a choice and i refuse to make it.."😂😂
“… God can come get me!”
DANG
I’ve been trying to figure out what’s been drawing me back to the Catholic faith as I was perfectly happy with the Protestant church I was going to after recently being born again. One day I just developed an adoration for Mary that I can’t really describe, I just felt this love for her that wasn’t quite there before. I have a feeling that she’s calling me home to the Catholic Church (which is funny because I was Catholic growing up but fell away from the faith).
Mary points us to her Son. ❤
Yeees!!
Come back.
6:52 my great grandmother born in Mexico. She was catholic and she went everyday to church. She prayed for all her family including the dead.
So sweet it made me cry a little when Shayne described tiptoeing into the church, not wanting to disturb the sweet ladies praying there. I imagined the love and warmth with which our Lady and Jesus must have gazed at him..
I love his story AND how he tells it. Awesome story teller…love his testimony.
Listening to this beautiful testimony brings me to the importance of praying for the conversion of sinners and for ours family members… a very real example the our prayers never goes to waist.
Mom and dad who are out there struggling with kids addiction or family members in troubles and sometimes feelings loosing your battles don’t give up!
God is great!!!
To him be the glory!!
Thank you father for your mercy
Beautiful testimony, he's legit and God loves us truly.
Shayne, thank you again for sharing your story. I commented before on the full discussion, but I watched this clip today on the anniversary of my mother in law’s birthday. All of my children were very close to their Granny as we built a guest house next to our home were my in-laws lived the last few years of their lives. Both of them dying in our home. I love your description of feeling compelled to go to a Church, because I felt ‘compelled’ to share this clip with 2 of my 3 kids and ask my daughter to save it for her brother that may not be ready to hear it. Jesus and Mary love you very much and I know the LORD is using your story to bring so many closer to Him. I pray that two of those brought closer are my boys. 🙏🏼💗🙏🏼
Inspiring,,, seldom to see someone speaking from the Heart !!! God Bless you Shayne in your Journey... Matt listening from the heart as well.
God bless you! I resonate with feeling alone. I am sooo happy you shared your amazing story! God bless our Universal Church!
He is adorable! I can see how God would love him! Mother Mary goes after her lost children!
Please show me scripture that says Mary is involved, in any way, in the life of the believer. She holds importance to Jesus's life on earth, but despite having no divine authority, has become an idol for those of the Catholic faith.
Mary isn't our mother. You're worshipping not Jesus Christ. He can hear our prayers. It's in the Bible. She cannot intercede because Jesus is her salvation as well.
I cry each time I view this. This is what I believe about the love & mercy of God !!
Shayne gave Our Lord an opening…..& the love & mercy flowed forth!
What a beautiful story I heard today. God bless you man!
Im loving his raw innocence and curiosity. Just like a baby whos exploring his world. So precious!
I get to be baptized with this guy. Love you, brother. 🤟🏻
Yes consoling loving presence. I saw her in my dreams 30 yrs ago, still vivid. A lady with white bluish clothing that shines like a light, talking to me that everything will be alright, God loves us. I was then a teenager afraid of y2k. Just what i needed that time consolation. I woke up crying with full of hope and love in my heart. Im Catholic
Happy he experienced so much love
Wow!! Thank you for this beautiful testimony.
'Bathed in warm love' Beautiful
Thank you for sharing this. I love it
Him and Fr Don Calloway should hang out and have an interview.
YES
I can feel and relate to what he's saying. I think the word there is "Calling". I had a synonymous experience as him just recently, now I am trying hard to read and understand Summa theologiae and then started to read the bible daily starting with the four Gospels. I am a sinner as well and got the chance to confess my sins to a priest. And the moment he mentioned that my sins were forgiven by our Lord, Jesus Christ, I started to feel light and until now I can still feel high. Every single day I am trying hard not to commit sin and avoid the temptations everywhere. Praying through rosary is a big help to fight all of these. Amen to you Brother! 🙏
Amen! Mary will keep your soul safe for Jesus.
Love this story and I believe it. Praise be to God.
I love that church. It is so beautiful. Happy you have found your home.❤
Amen 🙏🏼✝️❤️ Bro, thanks for sharing your thoughts! I can totally relate: I've had some beautiful, miraculous moments, too.
Wow this guy is truly awesome. God loves that man, I pray he continues to grow and learn and share his testimony.
This is an amazing story. Love this guy. Mary especially makes me very emotional as well.
Man this was so powerful and beautiful. So glad he shared this
Welcome home brother God bless you always 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This testimony is so powerful!!!! Boy can I relate to this personally. God is REAL and He is here, alive, in the Catholic church. It’s the truth!
He really is so funny and will be such a blessing to the Church--he brings levity while sincerely taking seriously the Faith--so happy for him. All the best to our brother in Christ!
Thank you for sharing your story of conversion. May God bless you always. Yes, it’s so important to pray for our departed loved ones and that can intercede for us. Blessed Mother Mary, we pray for your intercession, be our salvation 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼
🆘️Sounds like a little bit like Father Donald Calloway's Conversion.Especially when he enter's the Church and see's all the Philipino woman praying the Rosary.Praise be to Jesus Christ.I believe the love and the seed's of his Grandfather's love that was planted in his heart at a very young age started to bloom.Praise be to Jesus Christ.Welcome home brother.Follow our Lady.And she will lead you to her son.🙏✝️🙏♥️🌿🕊⛪🕊🌿♥️.Theirs no coincidence.The prayers and love of our Grandparent's.My both Grandmother's were literally Saint's.They would have been at least 130 year's old.I understand.Beautiful Conversion.His Grandfather may have needed prayer's if in Purgatory.We don't know all the time.Beautiful Cinversion.Thankyou for this video.God Bless you both. 🙏✝️🙏
Shayne has a unique talent in sharing his
conversion story, it's like we listeners are being lured in and being captured in awe
"Bathed in warm love"
Thank you Jesus for your unconditional love 💗💗💗💗💗
So beautiful! Remarkable! God Bless him! 🙏🏻✨
Aww you inspired me so much 💕 my daughter has anxiety because of her bullying she is 12 we go to church and because she dress in dark shirt and pants and her hair is long in her face. I'm struggling with the people just looking at her make so sad and mad . She wants to go to church with me .. I hope people have more compassion for our children.
Help her a little bit, My Best friend's daughter liked to dress Shaggy and dark but felt in her heart She should go to Church, so her Mother told her You can dress your regular way everyday but going to mass I want You to look your Best for Our Lord, and modestly, with colors that resemble heaven and angels and Our Blessed Mother, like White, Spring colours, and Our Lord and Blessed Mother that can look upon You there SEE your beautiful face, hair, femminity, Beauty, modesty and effort. So She bought her her soecial skirts and blouses and dresses for Church and other special occasions.
All glory to God and his beloved mother ❤🙏
No way man!! Shane I watched your comedy videos all the time during one of the roughest times in my life. All Glory to God!
