Victorius Fredericus Ž.K Linnus brother, how about before you tell your parents, you come and see a friar/monk's life at first hand? Go and visit a convent/monastery/priory in the country and experience for yourself how it is to live a life of total consecration to God in the service of His Church. Once you do that and have the necessary experience, I guess you won't have a hard time explaining it to your parents. Will pray for you and may Our Mother Mary watch over you.

I used to work in retail...and whenever a religious came into the store...whether at starbucks the mall... Target... Walmart...you name it...it was encouraging and made me feel proud to be Catholic...sometimes just the presence of the habit in the agora was so inspiring...it always encourages dialogue even with non-believers. I used to bring a retired byzantine old calendarist bishop out shopping every week...and he was a magnet in walmart...he heard confessions in the walgreens parking lot..... Getting out there where the people are saves souls...keep bringing the church/sacraments to them..where they are...sacramenta propter homines!

darien chalecki ... reminds me of when I once walked into a Starbucks during quiet time (scarce!) and there sat a Catholic nun sipping coffee and reading. Her habit was entirely white. In that environment she looked almost luminous! It was as if her presence lifted that common environment up and into the Holy. I wish I'd had the inner fortitude to say hello and that I was Catholic. I didn't. But I'll never forget that moment.

To knowingly not using mask despite the effect it can cause others means you dont love others. If you're an asymptomatic covid carrier, you can put anyone you meet at risk.

Absolutely loved brother Angel's interpretation of that bible teaching. I really do hate it when the higher ups in the church take it super literally and they do it but it serves no real purpose other than showing how "humble" they are. At least by giving poor people haircuts and washing their hair, the focus is really on them as it should be.

His honesty and genuine caring nature is so refreshing.

In Spanish Angel is indeed a masculine name. It is pronounced Anhel or Un-hel. In the Philippines if Angel is pronounced the Spanish way it is masculine. But if it is pronounced in English the American way, it is feminine.

Thank you for breathing light air into the beauty of vocations. Jesus wants us to live to serve others not oppressively, but joyously. You do that Brother.

Thank you for the explanation of wearing the habit as a symbol of availability. That really made a lot of sense.

Lets thank God for this person. And his awesome brows. And kind heart of course.

First video i see from him, but gosh this man is handsome and charming!!

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!! For wearing the habit. I grew up in Brazil in a very Catholic family also I always had priests and sisters around me. Personally I always believed in wearing a habit, as you said it, it does bring people in need close to you. I am very devoted to Merciful Jesus, and Our lady of La salete, also Our lady of Grace (meticulous God BlessJosie

I like how chill the sound bed sounds in this video. *snaps fingers*

Thank you for this video! I recently found this page and have been watching your videos. This one is special for me though. I am a United Methodist pastor and have been deeply inspired by St Martin de Porres of the past 3 years. Following his lead, I am transitioning out of pulpit ministry this summer to work towards becoming a barber. The reasons given in this video for being a barber in ministry are the reasons I am making that move. Thank you for the encouraging words and for confirming that I am moving in the right direction!

The difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is two weeks! LOL

You come across as a very nice young man! God's blessing to you!

I am a 65 year old woman. Knowing the old ways almost Catholic 65 years. I grew up in a great church and grammar school in Da Bronx. I love your videos. You are fantastic.

I've seen other videos where professionals go out and give the homeless haircuts, shaves, etc. It's beautiful to see the faces of the recipients when they are cleaned up. Bless Br. Angel, Tito, and you!

Great vídeo! Ive been watching many of your videos, a lot of fun and great info!. God bless you, you'll be in my prayers.

Your videos always cheer me up no matter what😁 thank you for sharing with the world the joy you have in the Lord because its contagious by the way the friar on the skateboard just gave me an idea on how to practice patience

Man, you ARE cool. I just discovered you a few days ago and cant stop watching. Thank you for your ministry!

I really appreciate the idea of serving others in a multitude of ways. How lovely that Brother Angel wants to help others feel cared for and recognized for the dignity of their personhood - no matter their status. When he said he would talk or listen or just give silence depending on the need of the person, that was beautiful. I am a teacher and I view my work as a way to serve my students. I love my kids - my natural family and my classroom families. I think this last year has been so difficult because of the imposed distance between my students and the class. Thank you for these videos.

God bless you Br.Casey and may St.Francis of Assisi bless you because you have acted as a true son of Francis.

I also had the opportunity to work alongside Brother Angel at the St Francis Inn in Philadelphia. He’s hilarious, and a great person to work with.

that is very inspiring movie, thank you for spreading the gospel, being a Franciscan and wearing a habit every day, being a disciple of Jesus Let Our Lady from Poland guide you, father!

Very very good content. Thanks for being so honest. Nice hair cut too, well done Br. Angel!!

I’m so glad I found your channel I have been working my way through them. You are awesome. Love your personality. I wish my kids could meet someone like you , they would have more open ears and heart.

I started following you a few weeks ago and I really enjoy watching your videos. I am catholic and Spanish and it is very sad to see how we as a community are mistreated by the government and mass media. Spain has always been a Catholic country, land of the Virgin Mary.🙏🙏🙏

Hi Brother! I have to say, I really love your videos and frankly, most of them have given me the support I needed when I was (and still am) discerning whether to join the religious life or not. I do have one question though. My hobby and my degree teaches me to own, administer, and expand my business venture. After seeing this video, I 've been meaning to ask: "Can a priest, or a member of the religious congregation, own a business?". I've always been inclined to own a restaurant and create a friendly, socially driven enterprise to help the community. Your answer to this question will be so important to me. As always, continue to bring awareness to Catholicism! We all love your work!

As a member of a religious order, one would need to take a vow of poverty, meaning that they could not own a business. A diocesan priest does not take this vow and so I guess would be able to do this.

Breaking In The Habit well so far i've visited 4 active communities (one was the Sisters of Christian Charity in NJ and we did a "nun run" where we visited about 5 other orders within a 30min distance of the Sisters of Christian Charity...one of which was the Discalced (think that's how it's spelled haha)Carmelites) I enjoyed visiting the other active orders but with the Carmelites (who are in a monastery & are contemplative)I was beyond excited spiritually and almost cried out of joy when I actually saw them lol 🙈 I thought about that moment for the rest of the day and suddenly remembered something I asked God about YEARS ago ...how I had this deep desire to be a part of a community that was the same/similar to what St Bernadette or St Therese had when they were nuns...and after thinking more, I came to realize that God may be asking me to join the contemplative/monastic life w/ a full habit ...so the Sister who was in charge of the "nun run" suggested the Sisters of the Visitation in Tyringham,MA (founded by St Francis de Sales and St Jane de Chantal)...I read their entire website and from a purely logical standpoint the order seems like it was literally made for me (well more like I was made for it) (no I'm not just saying this out of excitement lol even my parents think it's a good fit for me and who I am as an individual)(Yes I'm also excited lol but what I mean is I'm not letting my emotions necessarily interfere with this potential decision because I'd be forcing myself to fit like a square peg in a round hole...I'm completely giving up control and letting Mary guide me on this potential decision and my vocation)...(as a sidenote, they wear the exact same habit St Jane wore 408yrs ago when she co-founded the order...which was also a desire of mine...I've always loved order,structure,and the tradition within Catholicism) I'm currently emailing the vocation director and hope to visit soon (I live close to them so that's a bonus haha) obviously with a monastic/contemplative life,lots of prayer is involved but they also make vestments for Priests,rosaries,toys for babies,etc (which is another bonus because i've always loved making things) So now that you know a bit about where I'm coming from, I guess I'm asking you to pray and ask God to lead me to a different order if this isn't the one but if it is, to somehow let me know soon (parents are giving me until September 30 to join an order )
