Embracing the Call with Br. Vincent Mary

Yes Catholic

Brother Vinny, a soon-to-be-ordained Capuchin Franciscan friar, enthralls us with his remarkable journey from a Texas layabout to a beacon of faith in Colorado. Through his story, we explore the life-altering moments that guided him to the path of priesthood, illuminating the transformative power of spiritual readings and the embrace of a supportive community. His reflection on "Abandonment to Divine Providence" by Jean-Pierre de Caussade, coupled with his own experiences, offers profound insights into the essence of faith and commitment.
Brother Vinny recounts his battles with fear and self-doubt, finding solace in scripture that fortified his spirit, ultimately leading him through discernment, religious vows, and the threshold of ordination.
As we draw this episode to a close, we delve into the robust tapestry of religious life, dismantling misconceptions and celebrating the jubilant journey it promises. If your heart is seeking guidance or if you're simply curious about the monastic existence, this dialogue is a treasury of wisdom and hope for anyone discerning their life's calling. Join us in embracing the adventure of faith, where every one of us is invited to respond to a universal summons with courage and joy.
