  • The priesthood is anything but boring. Fr. John Muir takes us along for a day in the life of a priest to show us that becoming a priest doesn't mean leaving behind who you are and what you're passionate about.
    Have you asked God what vocation YOU are called to? Now is a great time.

    Hello Father, I am 13, and i believe that I would like to be a priest. Ever since I started thinking about jobs of what I would want to do and study in college, there has been this nudging thought about priesthood, hopefully one day I can fulfill my dream in becoming a priest.

      @Michael Caza-Schonberger It's a mikveh don't fret it, Jews and Catholic have practiced it for ages. its our tradition... you follow your particular founder's tradition and even those bozos could not decide among themselves if baptising infants is ok... So here is some advise... go convince your own protestant fellows to you opinion and then you can lets us know how that goes ok?

    • @michaelcaza-schonberger9282
      @michaelcaza-schonberger9282 7 лет назад

      deusimperator you comment out of ignorance. The Biblical Greek Baptizo means immersion, not sprinkling! The eastern rite and the orthodox have it right, however the infant baptism isn't Biblically accurate. Infant baptism wasn't even mentioned until the mid 100s!! You sir need to do you research before you comment! You resorting to name calling only proves your immaturity, ignorance, and arrogance!

    • @deusimperator
      @deusimperator 7 лет назад +2

      @Michael Caza-Schonberger
      Perhaps if you had taken the time to attend a Catholic christening (that is what we traditionally call baptism) you might have noticed that we do not “sprinkle” as you not so eloquently stated. We follow the ancient formula of baptism set forth in the Didache which set forth the formula as to how a baptism is to be carried out. Catholics, ordinarily, pour water over the head thrice in accordance with the formula set forth in the Didache followed by the anointing with chrism.
      I am glad that you consider the Eastern Rites (patriarchates under the pope), Orthodox and do not forget the Oriental baptisms valid. After all, all these Churches follow the formula provided by the Didache. All these Churches do baptize infants.
      At this point of time, I would like to remind you that Luther and Calvin were proponents of infant baptism. Calvin went so far as to claim that those who deprived an infant of baptism openly violated the will of the Lord. We had to wait until the fourth generation of reformers to claim that infant baptism was anti-biblical.
      Given that the Didache was written by Jewish Catholics (see the Jewish Encyclopedia on the subject) who sought provide a catechize gentile catechumens and bring them into the faith through this mikveh would never have considered not baptizing infants and children, after all this was the Jewish custom when a family or members of a family converted.
      Come on now, you know I am hardly ignorant, I am a walking encyclopedia of knowledge. ;)
      Instead of wondering over and poking the Catholic bear and rattling your sabre at us, would it not be more virtuous to convince your protestant brothers no to baptize infants and having them sing from the same song book before venturing an opinion against the Catholics. Of course, I understand herding cats and having them meow in unison might not be successful, but you should try before trying to convince Catholics. I was baptized within seven hours of being born.
      Michael, the Catholic Church is your home, you just don’t know it... yet.

    Two things. One, why can't you baptize a llama? That seems unfair. Two, there is no garantee a life was saved. What if that woman dies in childbirth along with the child. I'm really sick of women being shamed for making the already difficult choice to abort. If a girl/woman was raped and/or may die because of it, she should be allowed to save her own life. She already exists and to deny her the right to live over something that hasn't existed yet is murder. Let her make the choice between her and God.

Mankind invented gods, semi-gods, goddesses in staggering numbers and since time immemorial, angry gods, benign gods, revengeful, jealous gods. And it never occurred to you that "god" maybe a projection of whatever quality you, people consider properties of the divine. They all believed that they "knew" their respective gods and what they wanted. Maybe they want a human sacrifice? That used to be a staple of divine desire. How do I break it to you.... You are imagining things. You add that to the fact that there is no proof that religion improves the human condition or humans themselves. Too often it just makes the self-righteous, intolerant and murderous. Don't get me started on the history of the catholic church and how appalling its representatives to this day behaved. So there.

This new Priest I did not like, he actually told us during one of his homily's that he was not looking to become a Priest but was talked into it, and you could tell too. We have a new Priest now that brought back the passion for me that my first Priest gave to me. I love being Catholic.

    Father, spoke of the Big Bang Theory.
    Father George Lemaitre, a Belgian Roman Catholic Priest was the first to propose the Big Band Theory. So much, for the anti catholic groups that repeatedly give voice that the Church is anti-science.

      As a straight woman I realise being a Catholic priest is unavailable for me as an option. It is something I used to feel excluded from and to be honest I can not find an appropriate word for how I truly describe how I feel. I adore Jesus. I got married in a Catholic Church to a very kind man who used to go regularly to Church to Mass. We are not the people I expected us to be in so e ways it has been a lonely step learning curve bringing up a son and a daughter who did not see the Catholic Church as a place to remain as life hurt them badly and the way the path of life led us is the outcome of how we treated the Lord. Before the Coronavirus I have returned to Eucharist Adoration, Confession, and Holy Communion. I felt grateful to realise I was a repentant sinner but saved by the Blood of Jesus. I am staying away from crowds and churches and shops while all the scary virus crisis goes on around me. It feels the right way to cope. I study my faith from Franciscanfriars Homilies and draw solace and strength from the Lord through these sermons. I enjoyed your video of a day in your life Father and if that is how it is most days you are a model of a hard working God respecting Catholic priest. God bless your life and the influence you have on others. I pray the believers in Our Lord stand strong in their faith in Him as we suffer in these times of testing and sudden climate shifts. God bless.

      Braedon I know this message comes long after you posted this reply, and you may never see it, but I was really impacted by your comment. I genuinely pray that you have been able to make room for Him, above all else. That's not often easy. St. Augustine strayed far from a life of integrity, until he didn't. Those of us who sin but ultimately yearn for a closer relationship with God are in good company. But I hope in the year that has passed you have discovered even more thoroughly the truth of God's goodness, and that you know He loves you without fail. Good luck with everything.

My husband too wanted to become a priest but i got to him first...... Giggle....... Churchs' loss but my gain I'm afraid..... But if U knew all the kids we have adopted I think God won't be angry with my husband coz he is serving God just in a different way.

    This video is very inspirational. The church has been through so much bad publicity over the last decade that it is no wonder why people are doubtful about those who serve God with their heart and soul. I am glad you took this path and answered the call, Father Muir. You are a shining example of the many good men in the church who are just, faithful and good. It is also wonderful to see you rehabbing the image of the priest and connecting with people in a way that is authentic and attentive. The church has a long way to go to convince the masses and to repair the image that has sullied it so badly. But, Father Muir, I know that with priests like you to represent the priesthood, I have faith that the church will keep pulling forward and overcoming strife. God Bless.

    A priest is supposed to be counter-cultural. It's sad how these modernist priests erroneously think that by compromising with the world they will win more souls for Christ. The pitiful attendance at Mass and Adoration proves it.

    Not religious but I am very spiritual. I respect the church I guess because I love history and how Christianity came to be. Paul the apostle has to be one of my favorite people after the lord himself To me god is everything and everyone and I find most of my spirituality in music. I would recommend a singer called iron and wine to listen to: freedom hangs like heaven, love vigilantes or Jesus the Mexican boy. It’s soothing to the ears and has spiritual undertones. God bless.

    Hope and pray that those who are devout at your university look into starting a Seven Sisters of the Apostolate. It is a group where each women commits on her designated day one holy hour for her priest. If she chooses, she will also do sacrifices and/or offer up a Mass for the priest. It has become a fast growing ministry through out our country and I believe through out the world. We started one in our parish over a year ago and our priests are so so thankful for this support and and feel it really has helped them. But obviously one doesn’t have to belong to this ministry to pray for priests in this way but just a plea for people to pray and make sacrifices and/or pray a holy hour for your priest and all those in religious life. There are too many people who do not think those in the priesthood and religious life do not need our prayers. I was one of them several years ago. It has been such an honor for me to be a member of the Seven Sisters Apostolate and to be able to do this for our priest. God Bless all who reads this.❤️

    I love a lot of Catholics because they want to be good for God; however, I must give them warning!! I strongly urge any Catholic...esp. any considering the vocations to please read the Bible cover to cover first...and study it. Then, compare the Catholic traditions and doctrine to the word of God. Also, measure yourself according to the word of God! Please, don't look to other men for guidance, nor even your loved ones. Please Catholics, seek God first! God's truth humbles even the most "good" person out there. I was a "good" person for nearly 40 years until I read the scriptures and realized I didn't like the God of the Bible. Praise God for his mercy on me because I finally repented towards Him and He saved my wicked soul from eternal damnation that I never believed existed! I want religious people to know that they are in extreme danger of damnation if they keep trusting in their church (any church) instead of the finished work of Jesus Christ. The Bible warns us of false gospels and false Jesus'...also the deceiving spirits. We are no match against the devil even if we are very "holy". I am not trying to be mean, but I grieve when I see very zealous folks under a false gospel. Read 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. And, also,....If you must attend mass, please bring a Bible with you and try to read the readings in their context, even the "responsorial psalms". It's not me, it's only God who can convince people to believe on Him.

      I recommend reading “Why we’re catholic” by Trent Horn to get a better understanding of the Catholic faith. I’m afraid you have many misconceptions about Catholicism. (I also recommend reading the church fathers. Like Ignatius of Antioch on the Eucharist). We Catholics feel sorrow for other Christians that lack the fullness of the faith that Christ intended for his Church.

    We are all priests (2 Peter 2), but we are not all called to be pastors! Those who are called to be pastors, aren't necessarily called to be celibate (eastern rite "priests", and former Anglican/Episcopal "priests" who are now Anglican Use Roman Rite "priests" and former Lutheran pastors now are proof that married "priests" exist) . Your man made rules aren't glorifying to God, and I'm sure that this is why there's such an epidemic of immorality within the "priesthood", also homosexuals should be removed from perish ministry if they cannot remain celibate. You need to go back to Scripture! It's an open secret that there are Roman rite "priests" have affairs, or have "close friends", also with how few new "priests" there you should get Biblical and ordain married men, as well as single or married women (Romans 16 proves that orthodox women were deacons, pastors, and apostles)!
