Great story of prayer, reflection, success, and discernment. God calls all of us to know and follow him. Thank you to the KCs for producing this video.
God bless you Fr
I'm 16 years old and I am going through the same situation as him. I was thriving to go for Film and Television industry for 2 years then to be a professional wrestler but I gave that up for the final call. God has been using my Nana for years, she would always say I'm gonna be a priest. Even my other family members. I denied because I hated to be one. But I now accept it. God Bless You All.
TORO 777 God bless you and make you a great priest in your adventures in the priesthood.
Pray the Holy Rosary daily TORO and Our Blessed Lady, Mother of God and our Mother will guide and protect you always.
a man of courage.... Blessings...
Yo 777 God bless you!🙌🏻
I had wanted to be a Priest since I was young, but wanted a wife and family, so was a nurse but didn’t like all the politics, now I’m a Chaplain, and it is the best vocation in the world!!!
someday i will follow his path,
May God keep blessing you Fr. Chase Hilgenbrinck. I also have a calling to the priesthood and I want to fulfill that desire from God. Someone, please help me with a random prayer. Thanks
May Our Lord Call you to become His Priest. In the Name Of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. Amen 🙏
hey man..Robert here..try to contact Order of Preachers...am planning to join Dominicans upon my graduation.cox am a psychology student
I had the honor to meet this man. He used to volunteer to do mass In Illinois prisons. He’s hands down the most understanding and open minded priest ive met. The Catholic Church needs more priest like him. I’ve heard him use science in his ceremony’s, something that’s unheard of in the Catholic Church. God bless this man.
Proud to be Catholic.
Amen!
Thank you for saying "yes" to Jesus. I love my catholic faith.
"Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in thee." (St. Augustine)
More More More More More vocations we need . Let The Holy Fire of Gospel spread across the globe and light up all the Souls .
Let’s start a soccer team of all priests😇
God, please send us many many many more men like Fr. Chase to rebuild that Church and drive out the evil.
A vital comment for me: Fr said he continued to experience a lack of peace in the midst of the greatest happiness he had experienced. How often do we chase happiness and find it fleeting? Happiness does not always equal peace.
This is such a beautiful testimony. Father Chase is truly blessed among men. I would trade places with him at any moment without further thought. I pray that it will be God's will and calling for me to discern my vocation to the priesthood and the religious life.
In Ñublense we still remember you Chaise, maybe I was a child when you were in Ñublense, but I got those memories with you and your other teammates like it was yesterday! I’m thankful for all you did for our club and I’m pretty happy for the way you took, God bless you! And I wish you the best, greetings from Chillán, Chile!
One thing is for sure: no one will hustle this priest on the field. God bless you father.
I hope young men and women of today will take this as an example on what is the real meaning of life.....
That life is not all about Tiktok ...
How fortunate it is for Fr. Chase Hilgenbrinck to be called a priest ! - if only I were also called...
sydneylam19 what do u mean if i feel gods calling u to be a priest .. goo immediately to ur parish and talk too ur priest dont be wasting time.. ill be praying for u ok. just yooo talk to ur priest.
sydneylam19 if you feel god's calling you, go and talk to a priest. GOOOO
I've talked to a parish priest (my college chaplain) - hmm... having received regular spiritual directions for around nine months, he said I seemed to have a Vocation and (according to him) the signs are obvious - but in the past month I don't 'feel' any sentiment nor 'calling' (although I'm willing to follow Jesus IF HE EXPLICITLY tells me to do so some point in my life)... pray for me! Especially when I'm too occupied with my hectic study
(6 ways to discover my vocation)1-prayer..2-sacraments..3-good information..4-the blessed mother pray three hail Mary's every day specially to know ur vocation..5-go on retreat..6-GET ADVICE..and when u receive communion ask jesus to show you ur vocation. I'LL BE PRAYING FOR YOU.
Why does my teacher want me to watch this in lockdown
Proud to be catholic
Amen! ...and his journey as a priest has hardly even begun! Great work by the 'K of C' in creating this video. We look forward to seeing the NEXT video about Fr. Chase produced in this same standard of excellence! “In service to one, in service to all” .
Thank you for your priesthood Father! Incredibly moving story! May Mother Mary protect you always!
Only God could satisfy the hidden hunger of the human 💓. God bless you Father Chase and may you be a holy priest who could help God, the Good Shepherd feeds His flock.

It is hard to give up something you love and have done for your entire life. Yet I don't think all those practices, games and tournaments were for nothing. I had genuine fun in the sport I loved growing up with friends. I thank God is calling me to a vocation. To love others outside the lines and bleachers of the field.
you are blessed fr.please be strong and faithful priest an example which will save the souls for Criest
GOD BLESS U ALWAYS...FATHER! :)
there is so much hapiness in her eyes. Thank you Lord for Him. And thanks to Him
Come Holy Spirit, fill us with your wisdom, with your strength, fill us with piety. Make us, Lord, good disciples, so that we may save as much souls as we can. Glory and thanksgiving be to you forever

I'm glad you found inspiration in Father Chase's story, Gilbert. May God bless you and guide you in your vocation.
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I Cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference." Follow the tradition of faith in Christ and all else will fall into place.
May God bless you Gilbert and help you discern your true vocation. 🙏

Whatever you are, or do - whatever be your lot in life, you can bring it to the service of Christ. Priests and religious can be all kinds of things as leaders and teachers, mentors and coahes.
Chase, I love your testimony, but you think we didn't see that hand at 3:19???
Thank you for your incredible testimony!
😂😂😂
God is good!
Beautiful testimony!!!!🙏🏻
God bless you, father
so inspiring.. greeting from Indonesia. Jesus bless you
You never know if the person next to you will ever become a priest, nun, or someone special to minister the word of God. You never know if the person sitting next you, you will either marry or they will become someone famous. You may not talk to that person because they are ugly, not special to you, but they may be famous. Something special. I heard God is funny and mysterious.
God bless you
What an inspirational testimony. Thanks be to God!
You’re so blessed... what fantastic way to live.. a life full for Christ. That’s all we are to do 😩😩😢😢
Great sharing story Fr Chase, iam just like you but you not take long time to answer God role create for every human. Am auditor but when Lord said i want you to be my bride as nuns im run and moving forward my way, my plan and my study until 11 years Lord catch me agains and im ready answer Lord calling. Am now learning one of conggregation as postulant become a nuns.
Beautifully said. Touched my heart. I can feel the love for our Lord, the priesthood in your voice! God bless and continue to guide you. I especially loved hearing your experience of hearing God's voice in the silence of Adoration
Bendiciones Padre Chase!!!!
I have a vocation to the priesthood... please help me discern it.
Amen.
God be with you always. Great testimony God 's call. Aleluya
All. People are looking for a football to earn money but you choose. The holy work to earn an eternity life because this world is not our home . good decision father thank you .God love you and chosen you, praise the Lord
Amen
Beautiful!! Blessings!!
we love u....
I was asked the other day have I thought about coming a priest. It kinda shocked me. I told her no. She said pray about it. I'm at church more then the nuns lol but after she said that I have been thinking more about it. Me a priest! It sounds so weird.
Top notch video right here
Proud to be Catholic
Great story you sould got god call
Great video, inspiring story.
Although I was shocked that the US develops soccer talent that's good enough to play on foreign teams. I thought the talent only flowed into the US.
Incredible!!!
Catholicism and sports...I just researched who Father David Bauer was....Hockey player and something about the Olympics and Hall of Fame? idk much about it.
"You are My witnesses."
Amazing! 🙏🙏🙏
Welcome to Home Sweet Rome's new priest😇
Great video
Awesome
Amazing 😉
I am alive, but i dont know why Im existing... I feel empty.
We've all been there trust me. The Lord just asks you to surrender evem the most dangerous and darkest of thoughts to Him. Trust in His Mercy. As a fellow brother, believe it when He says that are redeemed through Him. Read 2nd Corinthians 12 verse 9. It brings me a lot of strength and I hope it will give you some as well.
Through Christ,
James
i want to be priest but need some help father
wow wow wow
Wow
He is in a lot of RUclips channels because he is very attractive. But I mean, who cares if he is attractive. If Jesus wants Chase for His priest, may Chase be blessed for answering His call. May our blessed mother take care of every holy man called to religious order. Amen.
Great clip.
WOW WOW WOW!! ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Existe la posibilidad de que alguien de buena voluntad pueda agregar los subtítulos en español para ocupar este video como testimonio de vida a tantos jóvenes que en las parroquias aman el fútbol y tratan de compatibilizar su pasión por el fútbol con Dios. Se los agradecería en el alma.
Loneliness can be a great and powerful channel to God.
This fr got 115k views and 2.3k likes
Not sure why there's not more likes honestly, his story is very humbling.
Do you have this video but with spanish subtitles? Or anybody? it's for sharing
🙏
Alguien que lo pueda traducir al español? por favor!!!
Ffs we so need guys like this. And to any youngsters with a twinkling of a vocation get this; the need for sex in our culture is 90% capitalist construct. The other 10% is no more than watching football. You don't need sex.
Deberían Subtitularlo
good bur you should have join Salesian.
