Wow! there is potential Priest to be among us. Jesus, I trust in You. St.Michael the Archangel, we Catholics need another Priest in this dark times, please intercede for us and pray that this another great young man who is also a fine Pilot be called to lead the Church and assist him too in this life.
Thank you father for answering the call of God, without the priests there’s no Holy Eucharist and other Sacraments of the Catholic Church. God bless you father.
That's great Bro. John Schnur! Thank you for the Public Sharing...God's willing! we will be ordained in the same Year! Let's pray for each other...Praise the LORD!!!
Tremendous vocation story, tremendous video. I never cease to be amazed on how God works in peoples lives and the journey some go through to answer His call all for love. May God give you all you need to become a great priest.
Well said! I’m publishing a weekly CZcams video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you.
I had a neighbour who was a retired pilot but a practicing Catholic! Lovely old gent who lived to 95 - 70 years' married and I respected him like a grandfather.
What a beautiful video and vocation story! Made me laugh (at the part about failing at everything/can’t find girlfriend etc haha) and cry tears of joy! Thank you so much for your yes to God! I feel called to pray and offer my life for priests and seminarians. My brother is a priest in Chicago, 5 years, a pastor now at 32. If you remember, please say a little prayer for my vocation. There have been many road blocks. God reward you!
I'm so happy that there's still a lot of people who become a priest. This are testament of present of God in our life. God bless all of you priests who choose to serve our God . Amen
God bless this priest. ( I checked and he did get ordained). What an inspiring story. And also the honesty about what he thought initially aboit the priesthood. I pray (try to pray) a rosary decade for priests every day. I will include Fr in my prayers.

What a beautiful testimony of God's calling and you listening to His call, Br.John. Will be praying for you. Thank you for sharing your story, and hope to see you at St. Augustine's, someday. God bless you.
Thank you for being a priest! We need more courageous young men like your self willing to answer the call. This video was so encouraging to watch. My brother is a pilot I look forward to sharing this video with him also.
Remember I said that I heard of a pilot priest? I knew it was up north but it was actually a priest from Alaska! Fr. Jim Falsey And then I read about Msgr. Jeffrey N. Steenson! Congratulations! Tomorrow, May 4th, 2019 is the big day!
Thank you, Father John, fot sharing your vocarion story. How you choose to accept Christ's invitation and be happy with it. May your joy spread in your ministry.
I will keep you in my prayers as you approach your ordination to the priesthood. I love hearing vocation stories like yours. It definately is a calling from God. Unfortunately, I did not follow my calling early in my life and after 21 years as an engineer, decided that I had to pursue it otherwise I would go to my grave and regret for never acting on this calling. Sadly Holy Mother Church, not once but twice kicked me to the curb. It was the worst feelings ever: like a bridegroom being left at the altar. It was painful, but I persevere that if God wants me to be a priest he will make it happen. I love the Catholic Church, but apparently she doesn't feel the same way about me. This diocese will never see the fruit of this calling sadly and yet we import priests from other countries that barely know the culture, the language, or have been exposed to real life experiences. We had three men from my small rural parish make application to the seminary in the same year, only one got accepted and after two years he left the seminary. Then they wonder why there is a shortage of vocations, but yet we continue to pray for vocations. To be honest, men with a calling to the priesthood spend alot of time discerning the priesthood. If people getting married had to discern like a seminarian, we would have very few marriages because over 1/2 would be denied because many are not worthy, ill prepared, or pyschologically not ready to receive the sacrament. Just my two cents on the most important vocations that the Church elevates. PAX.
Hi Fr. John, I love your vocation story. You were engrossed on your love of flying and yet your calling for the priesthood was far stronger than your love of flying. I agree with you that you don't become a priest just for the heck of it but because of your love for the Lord and His flock!
Thanks John for answering the call to the priesthood. Although, I am watching this video 3 years later from your estimated ordination. I prayed to our Lord you were able to become Alter Christus. I touched me when you say that if you were to answer the call just so you can keep on flying you will be entering for the wrong reasons. You put God first and that is awesome.
Brother, this year is 2019, i hope you have been ordained!!!!! The patron saint of flying is St.Joseph of Cuppertino. He's also a patron Saint of Students. Pls ask intercession.
Thank you for this wonderful and inspiring story. LORD JESUS, we pray for our Priests, fill them with the love of the Holy Spirit... Holy Mary intercede for our Priests... St Joseph, protect them... St Michael, defend them...St John Vianney, pray for them...St Vincent Ferrer, give them wings. Keeping you in my prayers when praying my daily Rosary. Blessings from South Africa.
Thank u Lord..to have u in Catholic Church..the Church needs u..Father.
I’m a pilot and I’m really considering becoming a priest. Thanks for sharing your story.
Wow! there is potential Priest to be among us. Jesus, I trust in You.

thank you for answering the call to the priesthood. Thank you for becoming a Priest.
You will be a very good priest. Will keep you in my prayers.
Thank you father for answering the call of God, without the priests there’s no Holy Eucharist and other Sacraments of the Catholic Church. God bless you father.
This is a very good example of the man who gives up his riches to follow Jesus!
He ain't following him
@@abdullahpilot5537 Who is he following?
He was summoned by Jesus like Jesus summoned Peter, "Come follow me and be a fisher of Men"
That's great Bro. John Schnur! Thank you for the Public Sharing...God's willing! we will be ordained in the same Year! Let's pray for each other...Praise the LORD!!!
Your story is truly amazing! Leaving everything to serve the Lord! Time flies... it is 2019....
