Please! No apologies! There is no digression in your speech. It all weaves together so beautifully and paints such a vivid picture. Thank you so much for sharing.
It was great hearing your Testimony. I am a Lebanese Catholic Maronite. Have you ever heard of Our Saints? We have great saints here in Lebanon (neighbours with Israel). We have Saint Charbel Who Is Performing great miracles. His Life was Fully dedicated to Jesus. He did a miracle last month in the USA for a blind woman. It was on the news. I am very pleased that you are Catholic now. You have a great sense of humour. May Jesus and Saint Mary Be always with you 🙏😇
+Helene Gerges Thanks for your comment. Yes, I have heard of St Charbel, and even met a relative of his (I think she was a niece or grand-niece) who lives in the US (and is very devout). I also have a bit of a devotion to St Mariam Baouardy, aka "the Little Arab". It is very tragic what happened to the Christians and Christianity there.
Hi. I have heard of St Charbel ! I collected his holy oil for a Catholic English nun in Medjugorge. I also by chance wandered off the main path on apparition hill in Medjugorge and by chance found St Charbels Shrine there ever since I have prayed his intercessary prayer to Jesus. St Charbel pray for my Friend Sister Dunning and my self.Amen
I relate since I too was born Jewish. Was a Christian for many years I read the book called the peace of Saint Francis and went to Assisi Italy and returned and converted the Catholicism
Mazel Tov! Let me know (email would be better: haveroytalk@gmail.com) if you would consider giving our witness testimony on my radio show. God Bless, Roy
@thestocktrader6544 Wow! What a amazing journey! Welcome. You should read book by Taylor Marshall, Infiltration. You will need to be strong to not fall for the terrible examples of leadership in our church. Glad you’re here. We need true soldiers now, and many converts are on fire for Jesus and know the truth because of their intellectual journeys.
I was born and raised Catholic. My ancestors are Catholic. We Catholics need to be reminded by new Catholics like you how lucky we Catholics are. Thank you Jesus Christ that we have you talking on the internet about the Catholic faith from a new -your perspective.
I am a convert myself and finding faith is a personal journey I would say to anyone persue it you probably won't have Jesus or Mary speak to you through an apparition that's for the very few but you will find prayers answered and will change for the better. Keep a prayer diary
Their conversion needs to awaken us from our spiritual slumber. Most of us are Catholic in name only. I just recently discovered apologist Priest Luis Toro, who some call the country theologian. He brings the Catholic dogmas and their origins to simple people like me. I believe his videos are in the process of being translated to English, which would be a real gift for non-Spanish speaking people.
Roy, I hope you see this comment one day. I have seen many of your testimonies and listen to your radio show and I love the way you present them all. Holy Spirit is definitely with you. May our Blessed Mother keep you and guard you.
Yes I saw it right away. Thanks for the kind words, and the enthusiastic response, and most of all for your prayers! If you listen to the show live (radiomaria.us 3-4pm EST) call in sometime! God Bless, Roy
How wonderful to hear from a newly converted Catholic Jew how blessed I have been to be a Cradle Catholic all my life and received all the Sacraments, so blessed 🙏
I have never seen a more powerful testimony -- the whole world needs to see this. I can see why Roy was chosen for this mission. Let us pray for Roy, and ask that Roy pray for us as well. Christ's peace to all.
Learning about our Jewish brothers fills my heart and I find more meaning to the history of the plan of salvation, and my own responsibility in participating in it! Thank you for sharing your experience reminding us (Catholics) to also share the Good News!
Thank You, Mr. Schoeman I have found light and comfort in your testimony of Faith. By conincidence, I was in Prescott Arizona in January 2013 I went to find my brother who is a Courageous disabled Vietnam Vet who loves God. I live in Manly NSW Australia and Teach at the University of Sydney's International English College. God Bless, from a disciple of Christ and a Renewed Catholic since 2003....Walter
Dear Lord thank You for opening Roy Schoeman’s eyes upon becoming Catholic. I am one of the Cradle Catholics he is talking about. Not always easy to tout our faith, have been to Fatima. Lourdes and to Medjugorje where showing our Faith was everywhere and so comforting. Thank You 🙏 Jesus. Amen
I just discovered these videos, and I have been watching most of your videos. I watch until I fall asleep, and you have made me realize how much I have been neglecting our Lord Jesus. My life has not been the same since I watched his first video, it has taught me to LOVE GOD, our Lord Jesus even more than before, and to Love His Blessed Mother. Thank you so much for all your videos, GOD Bless you.
I just asked my fiancé why did nobody tell me about all the apparitions of Mary and the dancing sun, and other miracles etc. I’m a new convert in process waiting to do RCIA next month. I just think it should be shouted from the rooftops all of these things I’m learning that nobody ever told me. I love this mans testimony.
I love that you have such devotion to our Blessed Mother. So many outside of the Catholic faith, think we worship Mary, instead of realizing how powerful she is in bringing us closer to Jesus. You are very lucky man to have had so much truth revealed to you. I hope my Jewish husband can someday have the same experience that you had; in the meantime, I will keep praying. Please keep us in your prayers. Thank you.
Blessed not Lucky! Pray the rosary meditate on life death and Ressurection of Christ then the coming Kingdom! Sing to Mary the Blessed Virgin Mother! She has visited me!
With everything that is happening in America today, all I can say is, THANK GOD that I was born, baptized, and raised Catholic. I love you JESUS. I love you blessed Mother Mary.
Glory be to the Most High, Lord of Sion and King of the Jews. I myself am a Gentile convert to Catholicism. It’s good to see that modern Jews are coming to their foretold Messiah.
I love the fact that all cultures, languages and races conjoin together in the same faith around the world without knowing each other but with our hearts united in Jesus Christ through His flesh and His blood. No matter where we are, we share the same love through our faith.
Salvation is from the Jews Roy thanks a lot. i sent this to a stuborn jewish frien saying i dont want you to watch this. its just a foitnot to this chesterton quote. he likes chesterton but hates catholic stuff.
Thank you for your testimony and reflections over Judaism and Catholic Church, it was so pleased. 8 found you again with the Divine Mercy and Rosary, I prey with you. God bless you,
Professor Shoeman, thank you for sharing with us.i myself has always felt a connection with the Jewish People.I am a Catholic who had converted from the Protestant religion. Thank you again, for teaching us about the connection Christians have with Jewish People. God bless you, and prayers for all Jews on their search for Jesus, May all Jewish People find the joy, love and comfort of Jesus!
I can relate to what Mr. Schoeman said. I too lived in a world where making profit is all that matters because this is what I have been taught in Business College where you make a 10 Year Plan and chart the money that you should be earning for your life and to stay that course. Well it can really destroy the spiritual life of a person because it makes you money centered
Jackie Scott Actually, it looks like I may also be giving a retreat in Dublin the weekend of Oct 9-11 this year. The contact person is Siobhan at sheraty@gmail.com, if you want more details. Whether the retreat takes place or not depends on the number of people interested, so if you have some friends who you think might be....The subject matter will be very much like the Advent Mission in these videos.
I would really appreciate more old testament understandings in relation to the new testament and the teachings of Jesus Christ, if of course it doesn't conflict with any of your projects. I would be very grateful to listen to your perspective. I too am a devoted Catholic, hungry for God's message. I thank you again Professor and I thank you for replying to me. God bless and keep it up. Love from little Malta.
I was born catholic even though I have go to different religions I still believe in Catholic Church. I also had an encounter with the virgen Mary but my encounter was awake and the smell and light she left was the most beautiful smell that I have never has in my life it was so beautiful experience of her present in my room when I was praying 🙏
Thanks for e-mail Mr. Schoeman. I am going to e-mail to a friend of mine your name. My friend has a sister who married a Jewish man, who goes to the Catholic Church but has never come in. His son is going to be a priest. I pray your talks will assist his wife or maybe he will hear and listen. Again Thanks! God Bless
What a grace from God - to get all that truth in the beauty of cape cod bay. Let us continue to pray for those who have not had this Heavenly ah-ha moment.
(Diary of St. Faustina, paragraph 625. ...when I was praying, the Mother of God told me, Your lives must be like mine: quiet and hidden, in unceasing union with God, pleading for humanity and preparing the world for the second coming of God.). I thought only visionaries like Mr. Roy are to prepare for Jesus 2nd Coming. It looks like every single Catholic are called to prepare the world for Jesus 2nd Coming...
Thanks Roy, I have met Siobhan through a prayer meeting and we have already been talking about this. So, please God it will happen. I hope to be assisting in this with Siobhan. God bless. Jackie.
Listening to this again and again. Sharing with family. You are RIGHT on point. What a shame, someone who gets this so much and preaching to a near-empty room - and with tons of gray hair. Yes, I’ve enjoyed this.
This is a reminder that God is going to a judge on the talents and grace that he gave me as a Catholic. Just like the rich man( Catholic )and poor Lazarus ( non Catholic). Today in this world we can share our joy or love because people get offended or they are far gone into the enjoyment of this sinful world including my self. 🙏🏼😢 Lord have mercy in us all we are all your people and your love is the same for each of us!
I have just got it, a few days ago and cannot put it down. I did not expect to learn so much in a couple of days at my age (78). Thank you Roy. Maureen Green
Catholicism is the only fully coherent fully embracing worldview and divine experience. She is trustworthy beyond our human failings. God is bigger and loves us.
Dear Sir. Your testimony is wonderful. We ourselves mostly the GOAN community are Hebrew in culture. We do not consider ourselves to be Jewish because we do not believe in the Talmud which we consider to be the worst book of Human wisdom and could never have had its origins in the Divine. Our culture even in our daily lives is very Hebrew in our manner. In the sense that we greet people in the name of God and we also wish them good bye by saying may God be with you in all your ways and keep you blessed. We are so pleased in God that you are now proclaiming the reality of Our King who is Divine and Human born for us by the merciful grace of God the Father. Thank you very much for what you are doing. We pray earnestly that many of our Hebrew brothers will acknowledge the Hebrew Christ. The Human Christ and eventually will become one with us in every way enjoying The Eternal God forever eternally. The twelve tribes of Israel are not lost. We are still here. We only await the tribe of Judah to join us in rejoicing with Our Eternal God.
Thank you Mr Roy, for sharing your conversion to Catholic Church, it is amazing from you had been go through. But I can see your faith is great, and you got the real meaning of Jesus Wey. Thank you today I have learned more about Jesus and my church. God bless you.
JESUS IS THE WAY , THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE ... BLESSED MOTHER MARY IS QUEEN OF HEAVEN AND EARTH ... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SIR ROY . MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS ... LET'S PRAY THE HOLY ROSARY PRAYER EVERYDAY ...
It is hard. "Honor your father and your mother." But Jewish fathers and mothers tell their children to never believe in Christ. I will pray for the conversion of Jews everyday.
Thank you so much for sharing your testimony. I could relate to a few things even though I am a cradle Catholic.. I lost faith in college, became an atheist. Also because I was very sickly (tumors and a messed up life throughout childhood) and got extremely angry at God and rejected Him. I openly declared, even if God existed I would not accept Him, because He cannot be a good Father as He claims in New Testament . And forgot Him for 3 years. Then without even praying for, one fine day, tumors of 6+ years disappeared. I was amused but was slow to recognize the work of God. Then after a few months, another healing from block of heart happened. I was in despair, had gone to Church, was talking to Mother Mary in front of the statue of Rosa Mystica, saying, asking for death if She and Her Son really care for me, as I could barely walk and breathe, had swollen legs and I would slightly faint every 10 minutes, had no job and had education loan , then suddenly, from the Sacred Heart statue next to the Rosa Mystica, a electric ray (sort of) came and hit my heart and the block was sucked (I could even hear the sound audibly - intellectually), and immediately the healing happened in my whole body. That tangible miracle brought faith and slowly progressed. Then after a couple of years, I heard Jesus audibly(intellectually) while traveling in bus, when He said, 'You are Mine'. I knew it was Him just like that. I cried for days after that of joy. Have never heard a voice like that. This happened in 2012. I have found true peace ever since.. Was slow to understand the beauty of Catholicism, still finding, but the journey itself is a great treasure. I thank God for those crises He allowed from early childhood, without which I would have not found Jesus and His Father (and my Father) and their gaze of Love (the Holy Spirit). I will certainly and mindfully pray for our Jewish brethren in future. Love from India.
Wow! Thanks for sharing that BEAUTIFUL testimony! Would you consider coming on my radio show (you could be annonymous if you liked) and sharing it? If so, email me at haveroytalk at gmail . com and we can set something up. Thanks!
Brother Roy still watching this. Really beautiful testimony. I am here in Canada and in a Jewish area where most nannies they employ are Filipinos ( mostly Catholics). We love Jews brother. We acknowledge you as our elder brothers and sisters in faith in a Jewish Messiah. Thank you brother. Godbless you always. Hope you are doing fine.
What awesome testimony 🙌 God bless you & your family all the stories from time of Holocaust is such black history may the lord never bring that kind of history. Iwas born Catholic but now I am born again Christian we still brothers & sisters of Christ.
I only relate only by the fact I almost sought to convert to Judaism by Our Lord kept from making that descision and now Im entering the Catholic Church this easter .
Thank you, Roy. I found your testimony on Spiritdaily.com 2 weeks ago. Despite I am cradle Catholic I encounter Jesus 20 years ago through Divine Mercy. Your testimony is so uplifting, I am recommending to anyone I come across. Today I recommended after Mass to conservative Fr James Grant, a convert from Protestantism, in last 3 years I met him twice, today he was filling in for PP when I entered the church he spoke in his homily like you, what is not common these days. He was interested to listen to your testimony. As well recommended to other 3 people including the leader of the Charismatic group in Brighton and now to Adam, my daughter friend. Previously I put your testimony on my email to the group of 30 friends, including my brother bishop in Poland. He has a blog blogs.radiopodlasie.pl/bp/ It is in Polish you may write in English to evangelize Poles, as he does. God bless your work.
I appreciate your reference story of hiding your faith from your neighbor on the airplane, as Matt: 10:33 says, "but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven." We believe Jesus made grace for Peter, but hopefully he will extend the same grace to us, as clearly, this is very serious to The Saviour. On a side note, the Holy Mother must have picked up Portuguese on her trip to Fatima!
Dear Roy I see you are still answering comments. First of all thanks for sharing your testimony. What resonated with me was not so much your Jewish upbringing but your turn from atheist to deist to Catholic while working in a scientific environment. I am not only in a work environment where Christianity specifically is a touchy subject but am also in a country(Denmark) where Christianity is considered lower than new age superstition. I truly feel that the truth of the Church should be spread for the benefit of all, but the social pressure fuels my cowardice and I keep silent. I wear a cross and have another cross hanging from my cars rear-view mirror, and that is the extent of my evangelize to the secular world. My priest has told me that the best evangelise is through living a Catholic life, but I feel I should be doing more. Do you have any tips on how to overcome that cowardice and how to concretely share the faith? Thanks once again for sharing!
When I go out with my New Age pagan friends, before we eat, I will take them by the hand and say Grace: "Thank you for the food we eat, thank you for the friends we meet, thank you for the birds that sing, thank you GOD for everything." It makes everyone happy and we can all feel the power in thanking God. They FEEL it.
Best evangelization is to live your faith, as St Ignatius of Loyola said, make everything "for the greater glory of God", and your friends will see it not only hear it.
your right. i was a pylgramige junkie like you. listen. in 1982 i visited a sick woman i had met in Lourdes who lived in Dax. she took me to the birth place of St Vincent de Paul near dax. then years latter i visited another french woman i met in La Sallet who lived in in Mobard who then took me to the childhood farm of st Cathrin Labore. she was guided to paris by seeing vincent de Paul in a dream. now im gearing up to travel again.
Amazing testimony! Was wondering how you interpret Romans 2 28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Andrew Klaven, in his book "The Great Good Thing." says the his father threatened to disown him if he converted. He waited until his father died to be baptized in the Episcopalian Church. Roy, you had the grace to not wait.
Dear Sir, thank you for replying. When The King of Babylon invaded the Holy Land and took captives. Some of our ancestors could not stand the immorality practised by the Babylonians. So they moved as far as the could away from the Babylonian kingdom and in exile, waited for the Redeemer. When the time came to return from exile not everyone went. The majority stayed in India. When our ancestors realised we missed 'the boat' so to speak , they sent letters to the church in Jerusalem for baptism. The early church, by God's grace sent us five apostles. St Thomas went to southern India. St Jude Thaddeus went to western India. St Simon the Zealot went to Eastern India. St Bartholomew went to Northern India and St Matthew who wrote the gospel went to central India. All were martyred in India except St Matthew who had to return back to the holy land. After our baptism we began to realise that our brothers and sisters who are of Hebrew descent were imprisioned by this terrible Talmudic wisdom of the Pharisees. This is what we ran away from, in the first place, and have no intention of becoming slaves to this sort of immorality. We long and pray for two things 1. That our people who are Hebrews enslaved, mostly those who call themselves Jews, by this Talmudic problem may follow Christ whole heartedly and be totally free. When this happens that the next thing, 2 will happen. We will have so many brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ Our Redeemer that no other nation will have as much. And together with them we can make all of the world a true Kingdom of God in Jesus Christ where God rules. God is in Charge. And everybody can praise God The Almighty. Please keep up the good work you are doing in Jesus Christ our Lord. Thanking you. God bless you. Yours Sincerely. Rev. Fr. John Tavares
Your story has really spoken to me and my trying to become a saint. I converted from Protestantism and you are exactly right. Just as Jesus said to the woman at the well; salvation is from the Jews. No one can make you stop being a Jew any more than they could Christ. The promise is yours like Paul said " Jew first and then the Greek". I ask for your prayers as I strive to find work and complete the family I started 5 years ago. I have a son and I hope and pray that I can bring his brothers home and marry his mother like we have wanted to. God bless you and I thank Our Lady and our Lord for the gifts given to you because they're gifts to us as well. I hope for the same experience before death that you had as well
When a Jew converts or accepts Jesus, it's a much bigger sacrifice it seems bec of what they lose/struggle/put up with within their family and community
Often, but not always. Some Protestant converts to the Catholic Church have grave difficulties, and it is not that uncommon for the families of Muslim converts to try to kill them! Ignatius Press has a recent excellent witness testimony by such a Muslim called "The Price to Pay", btw. Thanks for your empathy and warm response! God Bless, Roy
We are praying for Peace in the Middle East.That and The Holy Father Pope Francis. I think the Catholic Church reminds the Jewish people of their divinity as Jews. Enjoy.
Well the sin in the church has dragged it down unfortunately- the sin of lust- and there are zillions of people who are now badmouthing the Church. The Church is being blessed by these miraculous conversions.
our obligation as Catholics is to preach the truth of God to every person around us, if they listen is up to them, but it's a sin for Catholics to not study our Catholic dogmas first and secondly to not share them with the world.
Brother Roy do you believe I always listen to you? It has been what, 2 or 3 years since I viewed you sir. You inspire me. Question: Would it be okay to just approach a Jew and thank him for Jesus? Coz I live in a predominantly Jewish community here in Toronto. I always come face to face with them. Hehehe just asking coz I don't know ir might offend them. Will it?

Well, I've only been invited to speak in Ireland once, but I am scheduled a weekend retreat in Wales (Pantasaph Retreat House) this October.
Jackie Scott Actually, it looks like I may also be giving a retreat in Dublin the weekend of Oct 9-11 this year. The contact person is Siobhan at sheraty@gmail.com, if you want more details. Whether the retreat takes place or not depends on the number of people interested, so if you have some friends who you think might be....The subject matter will be very much like the Advent Mission in these videos.

Thank you very much Prof. Schoeman, this presentation has been truly revelatory and informative. God Bless.
Thanks! That's great to hear! Glad you liked it. God Bless, Roy
I would really appreciate more old testament understandings in relation to the new testament and the teachings of Jesus Christ, if of course it doesn't conflict with any of your projects. I would be very grateful to listen to your perspective. I too am a devoted Catholic, hungry for God's message. I thank you again Professor and I thank you for replying to me. God bless and keep it up. Love from little Malta.
I was born catholic even though I have go to different religions I still believe in Catholic Church. I also had an encounter with the virgen Mary but my encounter was awake and the smell and light she left was the most beautiful smell that I have never has in my life it was so beautiful experience of her present in my room when I was praying 🙏
Mr. Roy Schoeman’s and Mr. Timothy Keller’s voices sound the same. 😊. Very inspiring testimony. God bless us all.
Blessed be the Jewish people!
You should check saint Charbel. He litterally made thousands of miracles up till today and he continues to do it today.
Thanks for e-mail Mr. Schoeman. I am going to e-mail to a friend of mine your name. My friend has a sister who married a Jewish man, who goes to the Catholic Church but has never come in. His son is going to be a priest. I pray your talks will assist his wife or maybe he will hear and listen. Again Thanks! God Bless
This testimony is an awesome blessing!!!
Thanks for sharing with us brother, and thanks for reminding us that we need to share our faith with others!
Thanks! God Bless, Roy
Interesting thought you shared about the parable of this rich man and Lazarus !!! Never thought that way !! Gbu sir !
Thank you, Professor Schoeman:
What a grace from God - to get all that truth in the beauty of cape cod bay. Let us continue to pray for those who have not had this Heavenly ah-ha moment.
(Diary of St. Faustina, paragraph 625. ...when I was praying, the Mother of God told me, Your lives must
be like mine: quiet and hidden, in unceasing union with God, pleading for humanity and preparing the world for the second coming of God.).
I thought only visionaries like Mr. Roy are to prepare for Jesus 2nd Coming. It looks like every single Catholic are called to prepare the world for Jesus 2nd Coming...
Christian Co --- "quiet and hidden". Beautiful!
I think we all as Catholics need to be doing that
Yes, we are all because we are all part of God and we form the Holy Church. Think of it like a spider web.
Thanks Roy, I have met Siobhan through a prayer meeting and we have already been talking about this. So, please God it will happen. I hope to be assisting in this with Siobhan. God bless. Jackie.
Congratulations Roy Thank God you have found the treasure box you have been searching for A M D G.
Yes yes yes! I get so much of this and have had so many similar experiences.
However to have met the Blessed Virgin. Wow
Thanks! Glad you liked it! God Bless, Roy
Listening to this again and again. Sharing with family. You are RIGHT on point.
What a shame, someone who gets this so much and preaching to a near-empty room - and with tons of gray hair.
Yes, I’ve enjoyed this.
Thanks so much for the warm response! And one soul is worth the universe....
This is a reminder that God is going to a judge on the talents and grace that he gave me as a Catholic. Just like the rich man( Catholic )and poor Lazarus ( non Catholic). Today in this world we can share our joy or love because people get offended or they are far gone into the enjoyment of this sinful world including my self. 🙏🏼😢 Lord have mercy in us all we are all your people and your love is the same for each of us!
Wow, amazing...God bless us....amen.
His book "Salvation is from the Jews" is the best book I have ever written (other than the bible)
Wow! Nothing I can say to that, but thanks!!!! God Bless, Roy
I have just got it, a few days ago and cannot put it down. I did not expect to learn so much in a couple of days at my age (78). Thank you Roy.

Catholicism is the only fully coherent fully embracing worldview and divine experience. She is trustworthy beyond our human failings. God is bigger and loves us.
Roy, go to Nicaragua there is a town call Cuapa, you can see the sun dancing, the miracle of the sun, every year on the anniversary of the apparation
Dear Sir. Your testimony is wonderful. We ourselves mostly the GOAN community are Hebrew in culture. We do not consider ourselves to be Jewish because we do not believe in the Talmud which we consider to be the worst book of Human wisdom and could never have had its origins in the Divine. Our culture even in our daily lives is very Hebrew in our manner. In the sense that we greet people in the name of God and we also wish them good bye by saying may God be with you in all your ways and keep you blessed. We are so pleased in God that you are now proclaiming the reality of Our King who is Divine and Human born for us by the merciful grace of God the Father. Thank you very much for what you are doing. We pray earnestly that many of our Hebrew brothers will acknowledge the Hebrew Christ. The Human Christ and eventually will become one with us in every way enjoying The Eternal God forever eternally. The twelve tribes of Israel are not lost. We are still here. We only await the tribe of Judah to join us in rejoicing with Our Eternal God.
Wow! Thanks. I didn't know that about the Goans. God Bless, Roy
Fascinating video. Thank you
Thank you Mr Roy, for sharing your conversion to Catholic Church, it is amazing from you had been go through. But I can see your faith is great, and you got the real meaning of Jesus Wey. Thank you today I have learned more about Jesus and my church. God bless you.
Thank you for your encouraging comment!
Fantastic testimony. 😄🙏❤️
JESUS IS THE WAY , THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE ... BLESSED MOTHER MARY IS QUEEN OF HEAVEN AND EARTH ... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SIR ROY . MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS ... LET'S PRAY THE HOLY ROSARY PRAYER EVERYDAY ...
Thank you! And thank you for the prayers! God Bless, Roy
Ave Maria!
Yes! Beautiful! Lisa
It is hard. "Honor your father and your mother." But Jewish fathers and mothers tell their children to never believe in Christ. I will pray for the conversion of Jews everyday.
Thank you so much for sharing your testimony. I could relate to a few things even though I am a cradle Catholic.. I lost faith in college, became an atheist. Also because I was very sickly (tumors and a messed up life throughout childhood) and got extremely angry at God and rejected Him. I openly declared, even if God existed I would not accept Him, because He cannot be a good Father as He claims in New Testament . And forgot Him for 3 years. Then without even praying for, one fine day, tumors of 6+ years disappeared. I was amused but was slow to recognize the work of God. Then after a few months, another healing from block of heart happened. I was in despair, had gone to Church, was talking to Mother Mary in front of the statue of Rosa Mystica, saying, asking for death if She and Her Son really care for me, as I could barely walk and breathe, had swollen legs and I would slightly faint every 10 minutes, had no job and had education loan , then suddenly, from the Sacred Heart statue next to the Rosa Mystica, a electric ray (sort of) came and hit my heart and the block was sucked (I could even hear the sound audibly - intellectually), and immediately the healing happened in my whole body. That tangible miracle brought faith and slowly progressed. Then after a couple of years, I heard Jesus audibly(intellectually) while traveling in bus, when He said, 'You are Mine'. I knew it was Him just like that. I cried for days after that of joy. Have never heard a voice like that. This happened in 2012. I have found true peace ever since.. Was slow to understand the beauty of Catholicism, still finding, but the journey itself is a great treasure. I thank God for those crises He allowed from early childhood, without which I would have not found Jesus and His Father (and my Father) and their gaze of Love (the Holy Spirit). I will certainly and mindfully pray for our Jewish brethren in future. Love from India.
Wow! Thanks for sharing that BEAUTIFUL testimony! Would you consider coming on my radio show (you could be annonymous if you liked) and sharing it? If so, email me at haveroytalk at gmail . com and we can set something up. Thanks!
Love from India, Dr Schoeman!! Welcome Home.
my blood line is of Jewish decent but we are firmly Catholic and have been for a few generations, me too.
Brother Roy what can we solidly do aside from praying for oneness between us and our father Jews? Godbless you brother. We love you.
I mean our brother Jews. Hahaha
Brother Roy still watching this. Really beautiful testimony. I am here in Canada and in a Jewish area where most nannies they employ are Filipinos ( mostly Catholics). We love Jews brother. We acknowledge you as our elder brothers and sisters in faith in a Jewish Messiah. Thank you brother. Godbless you always. Hope you are doing fine.
What awesome testimony 🙌 God bless you & your family all the stories from time of Holocaust is such black history may the lord never bring that kind of history. Iwas born Catholic but now I am born again Christian we still brothers & sisters of Christ.
I wish you would come back to Pantasaph in Wales again.
I only relate only by the fact I almost sought to convert to Judaism by Our Lord kept from making that descision and now Im entering the Catholic Church this easter .
Mazel Tov!
Thank you AMDG
Ave Maria!
Every "cradle Catholic" has as much of a unique story as this gentleman. It's best not to lump us all together.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR FANTASTIC TESTIMONY!!
Thank you, Roy. I found your testimony on Spiritdaily.com 2 weeks ago. Despite I am cradle Catholic I encounter Jesus 20 years ago through Divine Mercy. Your testimony is so uplifting, I am recommending to anyone I come across. Today I recommended after Mass to conservative Fr James Grant, a convert from Protestantism, in last 3 years I met him twice, today he was filling in for PP when I entered the church he spoke in his homily like you, what is not common these days. He was interested to listen to your testimony. As well recommended to other 3 people including the leader of the Charismatic group in Brighton and now to Adam, my daughter friend. Previously I put your testimony on my email to the group of 30 friends, including my brother bishop in Poland. He has a blog
blogs.radiopodlasie.pl/bp/
It is in Polish you may write in English to evangelize Poles, as he does.
God bless your work.
Thank you for enriching my faith! God bless you!!
I appreciate your reference story of hiding your faith from your neighbor on the airplane, as Matt: 10:33 says, "but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven."
We believe Jesus made grace for Peter, but hopefully he will extend the same grace to us, as clearly, this is very serious to The Saviour.
On a side note, the Holy Mother must have picked up Portuguese on her trip to Fatima!
BTW you ARE doing what God wants of you! Bringing others to God! Thank You!!!!
Dear Roy I see you are still answering comments. First of all thanks for sharing your testimony. What resonated with me was not so much your Jewish upbringing but your turn from atheist to deist to Catholic while working in a scientific environment. I am not only in a work environment where Christianity specifically is a touchy subject but am also in a country(Denmark) where Christianity is considered lower than new age superstition.
I truly feel that the truth of the Church should be spread for the benefit of all, but the social pressure fuels my cowardice and I keep silent. I wear a cross and have another cross hanging from my cars rear-view mirror, and that is the extent of my evangelize to the secular world. My priest has told me that the best evangelise is through living a Catholic life, but I feel I should be doing more.
Do you have any tips on how to overcome that cowardice and how to concretely share the faith?
Thanks once again for sharing!
When I go out with my New Age pagan friends, before we eat, I will take them by the hand and say Grace: "Thank you for the food we eat, thank you for the friends we meet, thank you for the birds that sing, thank you GOD for everything." It makes everyone happy and we can all feel the power in thanking God. They FEEL it.
Best evangelization is to live your faith, as St Ignatius of Loyola said, make everything "for the greater glory of God", and your friends will see it not only hear it.
Praying the holy rosary DAILY is a great way. Pray for the conversion of siinners
LIVE TRUTH, LIVE CATHOLIC
your right. i was a pylgramige junkie like you. listen. in 1982 i visited a sick woman i had met in Lourdes who lived in Dax. she took me to the birth place of St Vincent de Paul near dax. then years latter i visited another french woman i met in La Sallet who lived in in Mobard who then took me to the childhood farm of st Cathrin Labore. she was guided to paris by seeing vincent de Paul in a dream. now im gearing up to travel again.
Amazing testimony! Was wondering how you interpret
Romans 2
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
THE PILLAR AND FOUNDATION OF TRUTH 1 TIM 3:15
Thank you for the link.
Andrew Klaven, in his book "The Great Good Thing." says the his father threatened to disown him if he converted. He waited until his father died to be baptized in the Episcopalian Church. Roy, you had the grace to not wait.
So what did Mary look like: blond and brunette, blue or brown or green eyes? Tall, short?
Dear Sir,
thank you for replying. When The King of Babylon invaded the Holy Land and took captives. Some of our ancestors could not stand the immorality practised by the Babylonians. So they moved as far as the could away from the Babylonian kingdom and in exile, waited for the Redeemer. When the time came to return from exile not everyone went. The majority stayed in India. When our ancestors realised we missed 'the boat' so to speak , they sent letters to the church in Jerusalem for baptism. The early church, by God's grace sent us five apostles. St Thomas went to southern India. St Jude Thaddeus went to western India. St Simon the Zealot went to Eastern India. St Bartholomew went to Northern India and St Matthew who wrote the gospel went to central India. All were martyred in India except St Matthew who had to return back to the holy land. After our baptism we began to realise that our brothers and sisters who are of Hebrew descent were imprisioned by this terrible Talmudic wisdom of the Pharisees. This is what we ran away from, in the first place, and have no intention of becoming slaves to this sort of immorality. We long and pray for two things 1. That our people who are Hebrews enslaved, mostly those who call themselves Jews, by this Talmudic problem may follow Christ whole heartedly and be totally free. When this happens that the next thing, 2 will happen. We will have so many brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ Our Redeemer that no other nation will have as much. And together with them we can make all of the world a true Kingdom of God in Jesus Christ where God rules. God is in Charge. And everybody can praise God The Almighty. Please keep up the good work you are doing in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Thanking you.
God bless you.
Yours Sincerely.
Rev. Fr. John Tavares
Your story has really spoken to me and my trying to become a saint. I converted from Protestantism and you are exactly right. Just as Jesus said to the woman at the well; salvation is from the Jews. No one can make you stop being a Jew any more than they could Christ. The promise is yours like Paul said " Jew first and then the Greek". I ask for your prayers as I strive to find work and complete the family I started 5 years ago. I have a son and I hope and pray that I can bring his brothers home and marry his mother like we have wanted to. God bless you and I thank Our Lady and our Lord for the gifts given to you because they're gifts to us as well. I hope for the same experience before death that you had as well
I am Catholic.. 🙏🏻
When a Jew converts or accepts Jesus, it's a much bigger sacrifice it seems bec of what they lose/struggle/put up with within their family and community
Often, but not always. Some Protestant converts to the Catholic Church have grave difficulties, and it is not that uncommon for the families of Muslim converts to try to kill them! Ignatius Press has a recent excellent witness testimony by such a Muslim called "The Price to Pay", btw.
Thanks for your empathy and warm response! God Bless, Roy
Wow !
Something Pope Fances should listen to
Maybe he would be given grace to understand the Gift of being Roman Catholic
We are praying for Peace in the Middle East.That and The Holy Father Pope Francis. I think the Catholic Church reminds the Jewish people of their divinity as Jews. Enjoy.
St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, ora pro nobis.
Well the sin in the church has dragged it down unfortunately- the sin of lust- and there are zillions of people who are now badmouthing the Church. The Church is being blessed by these miraculous conversions.
What Roy says at 34:43 struck hard.
our obligation as Catholics is to preach the truth of God to every person around us, if they listen is up to them, but it's a sin for Catholics to not study our Catholic dogmas first and secondly to not share them with the world.
Brother Roy do you believe I always listen to you? It has been what, 2 or 3 years since I viewed you sir. You inspire me. Question: Would it be okay to just approach a Jew and thank him for Jesus? Coz I live in a predominantly Jewish community here in Toronto. I always come face to face with them. Hehehe just asking coz I don't know ir might offend them. Will it?
