My First Year As a Priest Was... Interesting

On June 22, 2019, I was ordained a priest in the Catholic Church. Now, one year later, I answer your questions about the experience.

    @@robar1138I am not concerned about your enjoying soomeone's video. That is your right. Pls continue to enjoy. But all what I want to say is that in what you enjoy there is no truth. Jesus said in John 8:32 "You will know the truth and the truth will set you free". You cannot be free by enjoying his deception, but you cannot have the freedom of Christ with his videos. If you belong to a Bible based church, what can you enjoy listening to a man who is part of that deception? Pls think. If you wanto know the truth of God, pls listen to a good and Godly Pastor in a Bible based church. I challenge you, ask this brother to prove to you that mary went to heaven showing you evidence from the Bible. He will not and he cannot.

All of our cemeteries are Roman catholic, so my uncle's funeral was in a catholic cemitery but with a "brother" of his religion preforming the ceremony. Almost at the end, someone shout out "their Bible is the same as ours"..and it was absolute silence until that person finally left...

    A great friend from college entered seminary right after college and was assigned to my parish upon ordination. There are a few of us from our college student ministry friend group at my parish/in our ministries (theater, young adult, etc.). We’ve come to somewhat of a neutral ground- we call him Father at the parish and when mentioning him in church situations (like when I’m answering a CCD question with my fourth graders that somehow involves our parish priests), but we revert to his first name when we’re hanging out as friends. It’s been neat being on the friend side of a priest and seeing him up there giving homilies and saying Mass and everything, but have distinct memories of being goofy teenagers (and very young 20s) being silly in and out of classes together.

    Rosary is not a prayer to God. You cannot prat to any human being dead or alive. Mary was a human being. She is or was not God. Prayer is our worship to God. How can worship Mary? Worship only your God. That is the 1st commandment. Why should you pray to Mary? She is still among the dead. No dead can listen to you. Can your great great grandmother listen to you? So us Mary. Mary has not yet risen frim thw dead. This is how the saten is misleading you. All the satan needs is to take the worship away from God and divert it to him. So he has shown you mary ro pray and divert the worship due to God elsewhere. Pla understand this. Pray only to God.

    I'm a deacon of 16+ years and a couple of answers really stood out. First, presiding at Baptism is the best! Second was about concentrating on grades. I was in my first year of formation and was worried about what grade I would get in a given course. One of the other men in formation told me, "When the Bishop places his hands on your head at Ordination, he will not ask what you got for a grade in Old Testament I." Things went much better after that. Thank you Fr. Casey for answering these questions and congratulations on your 1 year Ordination anniversary. Ad Multos Annos!

    Father, you are so frank in answering the questions. I thank God for your calling to be a Franciscan priest. I wish to relate a true story regarding the Rosary. A friend named Ruby visited Medjugorje with her sick son. A Franciscan nun accompanied them. Ruby realised that she had lost her Rosary and she was very sad. She asked the Sister to pray that she will find it. Only Sister climbed the hill where the Cross and Mother Mary's statue were. When Sister was praying near the Cross with her Rosary underneath her palm, she heard a voice saying " give this Rosary to Ruby". When she opened her eyes she saw that there was another beautiful white Rosary underneath her Rosary. When I heard this story, I visited her home and saw with my own eyes the gift from Mother Mary. Ruby at the moment is suffering from cancer. When I called her yesterday she was hospitalised and said that she is receiving blood transfusions. She said that she is offering all her pains to Jesus for the conversion of sinners. She is so calm and relaxed and is ready to meet the Lord. Praise be to Jesus.

    Great video. Thank you for taking the time to share more of your life with us. I'm celebrating 2 years clean and sober after being in active addiction since age 15 (I'm 42 now). I've always felt like I was running from God's plan, even trying to hide or be such a mess that God wouldn't wantme. I'm not 100% sure what my calling is but I'm not afraid of it anymore. I'm excited about God and his love for us. I do find inspiration, education and peace from your experiences and wisdom. Thank you for what you do.

I’m so glad we still have the chance to see you through this channel!! We pray for your new paths to be blessed and we are sure you are taken to a place where you will make wonders with everyone crossing your path. We will miss you dearly!!! Juan and Melina Bustamante

I have purchased his books (one in book form, and the other through Audible). I love his youthful and candid outlook--so refreshing! I am a lifelong Catholic. Thank-you Father.

    Casey, first off, this is the first time that I have ever left a comment on anyone's youtube channel. I left the OFMs (John the Baptist Province) in 1972 during my novitiate year after eight months precisely for the reason that you articulated in your answer to the last question. I could not in good conscience become a priest ( that was my path) and have to deal with the issues that those I would be ministering to without having experienced those issues myself (in whatever form). I've never regretted my three years as a Franciscan nor have I regretted my leaving. It did shape my life. I admire your dedication. Pax et Bonum!

    Casey, I admire your confidence and strength of faith, most of all your honesty and being so down to earth. It's refreshing to see and hear that you are human just like any other. As a cradle Catholic, I used to see priests as somebody that weren't people who were common people. Perhaps that was just my upbringing. Inspiring.
