Introduction to Hosts and Podcast
00:00:17
Speaker
Hello, everyone, and Happy New Year.
00:00:18
Speaker
Merry Christmas.
00:00:19
Speaker
My name is Father Jacob Rouse, and I'm the pastor of Notre Dame Parish in Cresco, Iowa.
00:00:23
Speaker
And I'm also the co-host of the DeBucharistic Revival Podcast, which is what we are on right now.
00:00:29
Speaker
I'd like to introduce my co-host, Father Kevin Earlywine.
00:00:33
Speaker
Father Kevin, can you say a little bit about where you are and...
00:00:37
Speaker
I'm Father Kevin Earlywine, pastor of St.
00:00:40
Speaker
Patrick's Catholic Church in Hampton, Iowa, and St.
00:00:42
Speaker
Mary's in Ackley, Iowa.
00:00:44
Speaker
And I'm happy to be here co-hosting with you on this The Bucharistic Revival podcast.
00:00:49
Speaker
Me too.
00:00:50
Speaker
Father Kevin, how long was the fourth week of Advent 2023 for you?
00:00:55
Speaker
It was a very not long week.
00:00:57
Speaker
So yes, that fourth week of Advent, we had like a day.
00:01:01
Speaker
So Christmas quickly came and this come and yeah.
00:01:06
Speaker
is here.
00:01:07
Speaker
It abides.
00:01:08
Speaker
Yes.
00:01:08
Speaker
As we're in this, as we're recording, I think by the time the episode comes out, we might be just finished with the Christmas
Impact of Short Advent on Christmas Preparations
00:01:14
Speaker
season.
00:01:14
Speaker
But yes.
00:01:16
Speaker
Yeah.
00:01:16
Speaker
But it abides at last.
00:01:19
Speaker
We are delighted to be joined by two of our very dear brother priests, Father Andy and Father Michael.
00:01:26
Speaker
Father Andy, could you introduce yourself and where you are serving in the Archdiocese and how long was your fourth week of Advent in 2023?
00:01:34
Speaker
Well, my name is Valerian Yupaugh, and I am a pastor of Nativity Parish in Dubuque, and I'm also a chaplain at Waller Catholic High School in Moza Kelly Middle School.
00:01:46
Speaker
And my fourth week of Advent was five and a half hours.
00:01:51
Speaker
Finished, you know, at 1030.
00:01:53
Speaker
That was when Mass was over, fourth Sunday, and got right back into it at four.
00:01:59
Speaker
So it was...
00:02:01
Speaker
critical mistake made.
00:02:02
Speaker
I didn't have my deacon preach, so I was trying to figure out that homily in those five and a half hours, that Christmas homily.
00:02:09
Speaker
So that was not ideal.
00:02:11
Speaker
Next year, next time this happens, I will know.
00:02:17
Speaker
Hopefully it doesn't happen for, I think it's every six or seven years or so when that happens.
00:02:22
Speaker
That's true.
00:02:24
Speaker
Well, we'll see it in another six years.
00:02:27
Speaker
Father Michael, I
00:02:30
Speaker
Where are you at?
00:02:30
Speaker
What are you doing?
00:02:31
Speaker
And how long was your fourth week of Advent?
00:02:34
Speaker
Hey, everybody.
00:02:35
Speaker
Great to be here with you all.
00:02:37
Speaker
So I am the pastor of St.
00:02:40
Speaker
Patrick's in Tama, Iowa, as well as St.
00:02:42
Speaker
Joseph in Chelsea and St.
00:02:45
Speaker
Michael in Belle Plaine.
00:02:46
Speaker
I am actually Andy's pastor of his home parish, so he has to obey me when he comes home.
00:02:52
Speaker
And he's always asking me permission.
00:02:53
Speaker
No, just kidding.
00:02:54
Speaker
That doesn't really happen.
00:02:57
Speaker
But as far as the fourth week of Advent goes, I think it was even a little bit less time.
00:03:03
Speaker
Our last mass was at 1030, and so we finished up around noon, and then we started again at four, so about four hours in between.
00:03:10
Speaker
Yeah, so it was nice and short, but it was a good day.
00:03:17
Speaker
All together, it was really nice, so I'm grateful for that.
00:03:23
Speaker
A lot of joy.
Journey into Healing Ministry
00:03:25
Speaker
Well, Father Kevin and I are aware that both of you have been deeply involved with healing ministry and devotion to the Holy Spirit and what
00:03:40
Speaker
what all that entails.
00:03:42
Speaker
And for the sake of our view or our listeners, could I have you both explain a little bit about what this whole thing is and how you've been involved with it?
00:03:52
Speaker
Father Andy, could you shed some light on this subject?
00:03:55
Speaker
Yeah, absolutely.
00:03:57
Speaker
Michael and I have been really walking this journey together over the last few years.
00:04:03
Speaker
We all went to Mundelein Seminary.
00:04:05
Speaker
You should all know that.
00:04:06
Speaker
And really at Mundelein, we didn't go into this very deep.
00:04:10
Speaker
I don't know if Kevin's class did it all, but Michael, you know, you did either.
00:04:17
Speaker
But Jacob and I, we sure didn't.
00:04:18
Speaker
And we were classmates.
00:04:21
Speaker
But once we got out of seminary, once we got ordained,
00:04:26
Speaker
We had some opportunities and one was the exorcist from Des Moines came and gave us a talk.
00:04:32
Speaker
All the newly ordained priests in the state of Iowa get together.
00:04:39
Speaker
and learn about some things, continuing education.
00:04:42
Speaker
And the exorcist came and talked.
00:04:44
Speaker
And I was like, okay, that's kind of cool stuff.
00:04:49
Speaker
But I didn't really do much with that.
00:04:52
Speaker
The next year, Sister Miriam James came, and Michael was there for that one.
00:04:57
Speaker
And again, really cool.
00:05:02
Speaker
She talked about how your physical healing can...
00:05:04
Speaker
is related to spiritual.
00:05:07
Speaker
And I was kind of surprised by that.
00:05:11
Speaker
But I said, OK, I'll listen.
00:05:15
Speaker
And didn't do anything again.
00:05:19
Speaker
And then COVID shut down the world six months or so after that.
00:05:24
Speaker
And Michael had been doing some healing stuff through all of that.
00:05:29
Speaker
And he had then asked me if I wanted to go out to Wyoming and do a retreat, a priest retreat.
00:05:37
Speaker
And we met with Father
00:05:39
Speaker
Ubald was from Rwanda and he got stuck in the United States.
00:05:44
Speaker
So he gave us a personal retreat, just two of us at a, at a ski resort house.
00:05:51
Speaker
It was awesome.
00:05:55
Speaker
And, uh, uh, father, uh, he had a ministry of where he would basically pray the rosary on Facebook and he would, he would, he would kind of, uh,
00:06:08
Speaker
just basically call out people's health problems and say, you're healed, you know, or something like that, you know?
00:06:14
Speaker
And I was like, no freaking way.
00:06:18
Speaker
I'm just sitting there like, oh, like I'm praying the rosary, but I don't know.
00:06:22
Speaker
And the retreat was really around the Holy Spirit, how the Holy Spirit was present in the Bible so much.
00:06:30
Speaker
And we did some impartation, um,
00:06:32
Speaker
At the end, he imparted gifts that we asked for, gifts of the Holy Spirit.
00:06:36
Speaker
That was great.
00:06:38
Speaker
And then, let's say about, I don't know, about nine months after that, I invited a priest to come to Nativity to do a healing mission and Father Greg Bramlich.
00:06:51
Speaker
And then what happened was I saw my own people healed.
00:06:57
Speaker
I saw my own parishioners healed.
00:06:59
Speaker
And that
00:07:01
Speaker
pretty much changed everything for me because I, I, I really was pretty skeptical, you know, and all those other, other times.
00:07:08
Speaker
And once I, once I saw that healing happen to people that I knew, I knew they weren't faking it.
00:07:14
Speaker
I knew they were real.
00:07:15
Speaker
Like I was just able to kind of embrace it more.
00:07:19
Speaker
Right.
00:07:19
Speaker
And, and, and, and then basically, you know, I wanted it more for my, for my own people, for my own family, for my own friends.
00:07:29
Speaker
You know, it's,
00:07:31
Speaker
How can you not want that healing for others when you see that Jesus is still doing that?
00:07:36
Speaker
That was kind of the wake-up call, that Jesus was still doing that through the power of the Holy Spirit and wanted that for
Personal and Witnessed Healing Experiences
00:07:43
Speaker
everyone.
00:07:43
Speaker
So that's kind of the short kind of history.
00:07:49
Speaker
And let's kind of continue from there, but maybe Michael wants to jump in.
00:07:54
Speaker
Real quick, these healings you're talking about,
00:07:58
Speaker
So we read in the, in the gospels and stuff about how Jesus, you know, cured the blind and the lame and the mute to speak and raise the dead and stuff.
00:08:05
Speaker
That's all just, I mean, that's all just in the Bible, right?
00:08:08
Speaker
He doesn't, I mean, we actually believe he does that stuff now, right?
00:08:12
Speaker
Is that what you're saying?
00:08:13
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:14
Speaker
He does it now.
00:08:18
Speaker
Never stopped.
00:08:20
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:21
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:24
Speaker
And I'll speak to that a little bit too in my story.
00:08:27
Speaker
I think that Andy summed it up well.
00:08:29
Speaker
And I love that our stories entwine a lot.
00:08:31
Speaker
And, you know, the one kind of flicker of this I had in seminary was that we had someone come and talk to us at a formation session on those Wednesday formations that we all loved.
00:08:46
Speaker
And like,
00:08:48
Speaker
It was someone who came and talked to us about Unbound Prayer Ministry that they did this in their parish.
00:08:52
Speaker
And I thought it sounded pretty cool.
00:08:54
Speaker
Like they talked about just helping people to heal.
00:08:56
Speaker
And to me, like, you know, this heart sort of healing, you know, helping people to get like that always made a lot of sense to me that we could help each other in that.
00:09:06
Speaker
Um, and so I was like, that sounds really cool.
00:09:08
Speaker
And this was probably like March or April of my beacon year.
00:09:12
Speaker
So I was about ready to become a priest.
00:09:14
Speaker
And I was like, that's really cool.
00:09:15
Speaker
I guess I just, I won't get a chance to do that or do more with that because I'm going back, um, to Dubuque.
00:09:21
Speaker
And I just figured that this was something that must happen only in Chicago or whatever.
00:09:25
Speaker
And, um, but, uh, what, well, then I remember, but I kind of kept that in the back of my head and, um,
00:09:34
Speaker
When I started in my first assignment, which was in Marshalltown, there was a lot of different fun things that happened.
00:09:43
Speaker
But one of the things that was interesting was there was one morning that I was celebrating mass at one of our churches there.
00:09:50
Speaker
I get to the front and I turn around and I see someone that I'd never seen there before and someone that I recognized, though.
00:09:55
Speaker
It was Sister Miriam, actually, was at the parish.
00:09:58
Speaker
And I was like, what the... And so the first thought was this terror of I'm going to be...
00:10:04
Speaker
like i'm gonna be preaching in front of this person that i like respect and and that is you know the kind of catholic famous and everything and um and so of course you know after mass i'm kind of like so hey what's going on what are you doing here what's going you know and and i thought kind of find out that there was a connection there with a christian of mine um i was living in rural marshall county there and her name was barbara hi-o and um
00:10:29
Speaker
sister Miriam, a couple other gals were actually doing a retreat with Barbara.
00:10:33
Speaker
And so I wanted to get to know her better.
00:10:36
Speaker
And then now there's another day that I talked with her and her husband and just was like, so, you know, tell me more about your story and everything.
00:10:44
Speaker
And, and, and so with some prompting, you know, she told me that she's, she's done a lot of work with, um,
00:10:50
Speaker
just, you know, supernatural ministry.
00:10:52
Speaker
She has her own sort of thing that she does, but she's been involved with a lot of different things and she's a convert herself.
00:10:57
Speaker
But, you know, I wanted to talk more with her about it because I had experienced just once, you know, someone praying for me at a time that was just really beautiful for me.
00:11:09
Speaker
And I'd never experienced anything like it before, but they kind of like
00:11:14
Speaker
I felt like my heart was being red.
00:11:15
Speaker
And it was a moment that I could say, I think this might be actually real.
00:11:20
Speaker
There's like something real with this, I don't know, supernatural stuff or like whatever happened in the Acts of the Apostles.
00:11:25
Speaker
Maybe that actually still can happen now.
00:11:28
Speaker
And so, you know, she encouraged me a lot and I would pray with her a lot.
00:11:34
Speaker
And she invited me to a conference called Encounter, Encounter Conference.
00:11:39
Speaker
And I saw on the poster that there were some people that I knew and respected there.
00:11:43
Speaker
Neil Lozano, who was the founder of Unbound, was going to be there.
00:11:47
Speaker
And Dr. Bob Schutz, who we've kind of made mention of, too.
00:11:52
Speaker
He was supposed to be there too.
00:11:53
Speaker
I was like, these guys are great.
00:11:54
Speaker
And then I saw Dr. Mary Healy, who I had remembered from seminary.
00:11:58
Speaker
She teaches at a seminary, but we did some books in seminary.
00:12:01
Speaker
So I was like, all right, these seem to be some reputable people.
00:12:05
Speaker
Because I was a little bit uneasy.
00:12:06
Speaker
I was like, this sort of seems like a lot of like, you know, I don't know.
00:12:10
Speaker
I didn't know what to think.
00:12:12
Speaker
I just, I didn't want to get too out there.
00:12:13
Speaker
You know, I wanted to still be a respectable priest, I guess in my head, that's where I was going.
00:12:18
Speaker
But I went to that and it was, it was amazing.
00:12:20
Speaker
I just saw the church alive.
00:12:22
Speaker
and people who just loved Jesus.
00:12:25
Speaker
And it was, and I did that for two years.
00:12:28
Speaker
And then it was after that, then I was able to get Andy to come with me on that retreat that Barbara had set up with Father Rubald.
00:12:37
Speaker
And that's kind of where things started taking off for the both of us together, I think.
00:12:42
Speaker
And then after that, you know, it's kind of, as Andy said, I had Father Bramlage come back
00:12:47
Speaker
to Tema after he had him come to Nativity in Dubuque.
00:12:52
Speaker
And it was great for the folks here.
00:12:54
Speaker
And I was really blessed to have Andy, first of all, coming to that mission.
00:13:00
Speaker
And it was good to have a hometown boy in town.
00:13:01
Speaker
But there was also some other priests that came.
00:13:05
Speaker
And that was excellent.
00:13:07
Speaker
I think Andy would agree like that was really a beautiful thing that we had a lot of brother priests together just to experience that.
00:13:13
Speaker
And I think things kind of took off from there.
00:13:15
Speaker
So I'll stop for now.
00:13:18
Speaker
There's a lot I can say.
00:13:20
Speaker
the amazing part of that was they got healed.
00:13:22
Speaker
The brother, the brother priest got, got some great healings.
00:13:25
Speaker
And, and, yeah.
00:13:26
Speaker
Right.
00:13:28
Speaker
So that's kind of kicked us off into this, this Holy spirit fire mission that we've been, been doing as, as a group of debut priests.
00:13:38
Speaker
We've,
00:13:39
Speaker
We just, like I said, we wanted it.
00:13:41
Speaker
We got healed ourselves.
00:13:42
Speaker
We wanted healing for others.
00:13:44
Speaker
And we thought, hey, we can do this together.
00:13:48
Speaker
And we've been collaborating to bring healing.
00:13:52
Speaker
We went to Bellevue.
00:13:56
Speaker
with Father Bob Gross there and then went to Tama St.
00:14:01
Speaker
Pat's and put a mission on there and then most recently in Waterloo at St.
00:14:08
Speaker
Ed's and with Father Scott Bullock and now we've got one coming up at Nativity at the beginning of February so it's been really
00:14:19
Speaker
really great to work together with my brother, Preece.
00:14:23
Speaker
And this is kind of what I expected priesthood to be a little bit more, was working together, collaborating on things.
00:14:31
Speaker
So I'm really happy to be doing this.
00:14:33
Speaker
You know, that's not just all of us out here on our own.
00:14:37
Speaker
You know, sometimes it feels like that, but it's been good to be together and be working together, you know,
00:14:44
Speaker
for this common goal of healing.
00:14:48
Speaker
I know Father Kevin has some times for the Eucharist here, but first before we go on you,
00:14:56
Speaker
So priesthood is not just alone in your office answering emails.
00:15:00
Speaker
Cool.
00:15:01
Speaker
That's great.
00:15:02
Speaker
But you've mentioned, and you both are mature enough in your faith to say that you both were skeptical and had some doubts.
00:15:10
Speaker
And now those have been turned on their head.
00:15:12
Speaker
Can you describe maybe one or two of the specific healings that you've seen, whether physical or interior of people you know?
00:15:22
Speaker
One of the first ones for me was a friend who was about 50 years old and I still work with him at Waller.
00:15:31
Speaker
And he was ready for knee replacements.
00:15:33
Speaker
His knees hurt terrible.
00:15:37
Speaker
And when he came to that mission, he did a forgiveness exercise and went home and realized his knees were
00:15:50
Speaker
He healed and he could run upstairs the next day.
00:15:53
Speaker
He could barely even get out of his desk chair and he was running upstairs at Waller.
00:15:58
Speaker
So that was one that was really incredible for me.
00:16:01
Speaker
It's incredible.
00:16:02
Speaker
Wow.
00:16:02
Speaker
For a first kind of, yeah.
00:16:04
Speaker
So he didn't have to have his knees replaced?
00:16:06
Speaker
No, he hasn't.
00:16:08
Speaker
That's been a few years.
00:16:10
Speaker
One thing that's interesting with that is that at least one time he's come back to me and said, hey, my knees are hurting again.
00:16:18
Speaker
And I said, well, how did you get them healed?
00:16:21
Speaker
And he's like, well, I don't remember.
00:16:24
Speaker
I went to your mission and I don't remember.
00:16:26
Speaker
He's like, well, you did that forgiveness exercise and that's how I got healed.
00:16:29
Speaker
I said, do you need to forgive anybody?
00:16:32
Speaker
And he's like, oh yeah, yeah.
00:16:34
Speaker
I've got some, some people I'm really upset at.
00:16:38
Speaker
Okay, well, let's do that.
00:16:40
Speaker
And then went back to good.
00:16:41
Speaker
So sometimes healings have a shelf life that way.
00:16:44
Speaker
And,
00:16:45
Speaker
We have to understand that too.
00:16:46
Speaker
Like when they get healed, sometimes we have to go back.
00:16:50
Speaker
If the healing goes away, hurt again, then we have to go back to what helped before.
00:16:56
Speaker
Kind of like how we go to the Eucharist, receive the Eucharist all the time, right?
00:17:01
Speaker
Like it's a continual sort of thing.
00:17:03
Speaker
It's not just one and done, magic pill kind of situation.
00:17:08
Speaker
We return.
00:17:09
Speaker
Yeah.
00:17:10
Speaker
Yeah, and I would echo that too.
00:17:13
Speaker
Like I think just going off what you said, Father Andy, that of course, like our healing, I think we're really convinced that especially with physical healing, whenever we see that, there's usually something deeper that the Lord wants to do in our hearts.
00:17:29
Speaker
And forgiveness is a huge part of that usually.
00:17:32
Speaker
It doesn't always have to do with forgiveness.
00:17:35
Speaker
But usually if there is any sort of that in our hearts for ourselves or for others,
00:17:40
Speaker
then when that can be released, it's almost just like, that's the really amazing thing.
00:17:45
Speaker
I think when that happens, it's almost like, yeah, okay, then you know, we should see someone just like start walking all of a sudden.
00:17:51
Speaker
Because if we really look into our hearts, we can see like, there's some real strongholds that kind of keep me, you know, in a place that was really locked up.
00:18:01
Speaker
Speaking of for my feelings that I've seen myself, I know, I went to that first encounter conference, and
00:18:07
Speaker
And I listened to a guy named Randy Clark do a healing service there.
00:18:13
Speaker
And people were claiming healing while he was still talking before he was starting the actual healing part.
00:18:19
Speaker
And I'm sitting there like, I mean, just kind of telling you like that piece of my skeptical part.
00:18:24
Speaker
I'm like, yeah, okay.
00:18:26
Speaker
All right.
00:18:26
Speaker
I mean, I was even sitting next to Barbara and she's like, oh, this thing in my foot is healed.
00:18:29
Speaker
I was like, all right, well, that's positive thinking, you know?
00:18:33
Speaker
Like I was happy to be there, but I was just like, all right, you know?
00:18:37
Speaker
um but that what i remember is that that year so this was just a little bit after father andy and i had come back from that retreat uh we knew that it was when we started back at uh for masses after we were closed down for covet and that was pentecost weekend and right before
Forgiveness and Healing Connection
00:18:57
Speaker
that um
00:18:59
Speaker
I was over at our Catholic grade school and I like to play outside with the kids, you know, because I'm a good, I'm a hip, young, cool priest, right?
00:19:08
Speaker
I was playing.
00:19:09
Speaker
And actually, when you look at it, I just look like an old guy that's just trying to have too much fun.
00:19:14
Speaker
Anyway, I was out there playing like football with sixth graders.
00:19:17
Speaker
I think your nephew was out there, Father.
00:19:19
Speaker
I was out there playing football with him and I just jumped up to try and catch a ball and I kind of fell on my
00:19:29
Speaker
my foot on the side of my foot on my right foot and it really hurt and um you know after that i just had trouble even walking i couldn't even put like weight on it and so it's just like oh well this is just gonna go away i go home it's not feeling any better um go to bus a house that was kind of terrible you know just kind of going up and downstairs anyway the next morning when i get up it's like black and blue
00:19:53
Speaker
And so I'm like, okay, I gotta go see someone.
00:19:55
Speaker
So I go to like urgent care.
00:19:56
Speaker
They tell me that it looks like I have a fracture in my foot on the side of the foot there.
00:20:02
Speaker
And what's bad about having a fracture in the foot that you might know is that the blood flow is, you know, not so great in your feet and your outer extremities.
00:20:09
Speaker
So they say this one kind of will take a while to heal.
00:20:12
Speaker
So they put me in a boot and, um, and so they said like, you know, six to eight weeks that I'd probably be in this thing.
00:20:19
Speaker
And, um,
00:20:20
Speaker
And that's, you know, that stinks, you know, as a priest for us, like to have to go around and feel vulnerable like that or to see people and tell them, yeah, like I hurt my foot and or like to limp up to the altar.
00:20:32
Speaker
You know, but none of that feels good for us, especially as young priesthood.
00:20:36
Speaker
But what happened was that it was that weekend that we were starting masses again and we were going, it was Pentecost weekend and
00:20:42
Speaker
The Spanish speaking community in Marshalltown have these prayer groups that were going to do a big vigil for Pentecost and they're charismatic in nature and they wanted us priests to be involved with it.
00:20:54
Speaker
We said, yeah.
00:20:55
Speaker
So we were involved with praying over people.
00:20:57
Speaker
And I just really felt this conviction that God wanted to do something healing with this foot.
00:21:05
Speaker
I just felt like this was for something.
00:21:08
Speaker
And so I just asked some of those folks if they would be willing to.
00:21:11
Speaker
And of course, they're just like, yes, yes, padre.
00:21:13
Speaker
They're like, absolutely.
00:21:15
Speaker
And so some of them prayed over that.
00:21:18
Speaker
And to be honest, I don't think I felt I don't remember feeling anything that night.
00:21:22
Speaker
I do remember not thinking as much about it, like like the pain in it or anything about it.
00:21:28
Speaker
But within the next couple of days, you know, I wouldn't sleep with the boot on, but it was, it was like very much easier to walk.
00:21:35
Speaker
And I started to see like, I'm making it around without this thing.
00:21:39
Speaker
And, and so I had seen a podiatrist and they wanted to see me within like three weeks.
00:21:45
Speaker
And I just, I had to make another appointment because I didn't want to be a bad patient.
00:21:50
Speaker
So I,
00:21:50
Speaker
I like I made another appointment and I came in without the boot on because it was like it wasn't there.
00:21:57
Speaker
And he's he said when he came into the room, I watched you walk in.
00:22:01
Speaker
That's.
00:22:02
Speaker
You're you're doing great.
00:22:04
Speaker
You know, it's not there anymore.
00:22:06
Speaker
Like they had done the X-ray and they didn't.
00:22:09
Speaker
He tried to say maybe there was an extra bone, but I don't know.
00:22:12
Speaker
That was pretty vernacular.
00:22:14
Speaker
And the same similar thing with what Father Andy said.
00:22:18
Speaker
There's some times where it kind of flares up again, and I have to continue to.
00:22:22
Speaker
It's in my office.
00:22:23
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:22:25
Speaker
It'll go away in a second.
00:22:27
Speaker
But, yeah, that's the healing that I received.
00:22:31
Speaker
And I like to do that because when I do that, I also claim it.
00:22:36
Speaker
And I remember that this is real and it happened.
00:22:38
Speaker
So, and I think that's something important that we tell people to that we, we claim our healing.
00:22:42
Speaker
So, yeah.
00:22:46
Speaker
Thank you for sharing.
00:22:47
Speaker
Those are incredible stories and having been involved a bit with the missions myself, like I know there's many, many more stories of people's healings.
00:22:55
Speaker
So to just to highlight a couple of things, like the kind of the, that you guys said one,
00:23:01
Speaker
is I think appreciating like the holistic nature of God's healing is what I'm hearing in all this, you know, that it's both like spiritual and physical.
00:23:09
Speaker
And it's not, it's not either or that many times has come together.
00:23:15
Speaker
You know, and sometimes the physical symptoms are kind of a symptom of a deeper spiritual thing that needs to be healed, forgiveness or whatnot.
00:23:22
Speaker
Just kind of that when we're bearing that resentment and everything, you know, like it, it does sort of hinder God's ability to work in us when we're,
00:23:30
Speaker
resenting.
00:23:31
Speaker
Like I've just, I've just been appreciating the, uh, that in the, our father, we have those lines right next to each other, you know, forgive us our sins or, uh, give us this day, our daily bread, you know, the sustenance we need, the nourishment we need.
00:23:43
Speaker
And right after that is, and forgive, uh, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, you know, um, which I think just highlights like all that God wants to do in us and the connection with that in us being able to like, let go and lay down resentment, um,
00:23:59
Speaker
which is a process in and of itself.
00:24:00
Speaker
So I'll say for me, you know, just briefly, my kind of one of my I mean, there's I have a whole long story I won't share here.
00:24:08
Speaker
But mine was also through Unbound and kind of in coming into all of this in Neil Lozano's Unbound.
00:24:14
Speaker
And for those who aren't familiar with it, for those listeners, Unbound is kind of a prayer process of
00:24:19
Speaker
taking people through things in their past where they, um, that primarily deals with, uh, forgiveness, actually taking them through and any hurts, any wounds they're carrying, any resentment or bitterness, um, to going through and, and forgiving in the name of Jesus, I forgive so-and-so for such and such.
00:24:33
Speaker
And then, um,
00:24:35
Speaker
And then kind of renouncing any of the kind of negative things around that.
00:24:38
Speaker
In the name of Jesus, I renounce unforgiveness, resentment, bitterness, and then various lies and so on.
00:24:44
Speaker
And that's kind of the process of healing.
00:24:46
Speaker
So it's this inner healing.
00:24:48
Speaker
And it really centers around praying for forgiveness, as in us choosing to forgive in the name of Jesus.
00:24:54
Speaker
So anyways, and so to kind of transition a little bit, though, I just want to add like
00:25:02
Speaker
I do think it's very providential that kind of this, this all started coming together as far as like us offering these healing missions in the Archdiocese of Buke.
00:25:13
Speaker
I think it's not a coincidence that it seemed to kind of coincide with
Healing Missions and Eucharistic Revival
00:25:18
Speaker
a couple of things.
00:25:18
Speaker
And one of those being that as the church is being called to Eucharistic revival during this time, it seems very, seemed very providential that these healing missions are kind of coming up around that.
00:25:31
Speaker
And,
00:25:32
Speaker
my experience with these missions, I think they are very Eucharistic centered and everything like that.
00:25:36
Speaker
So, and like I said, also that the daily bread is daily sustenance, but it can also be seen as like the nourishing power of the Eucharist as well in the, our father, but all that to say, so we've said a lot about Holy spirit and healing and we'll say more about it, but, but just kind of to share a little bit more about kind of the particular missions we're doing and maybe, and just how is the Eucharist connected to healing in all of that and how that's part of the missions.
00:26:02
Speaker
Yeah, I think to speak to that, first of all, like for my, mine and Andy's experiences before, like when we were with Father Ubald, if you remember Father Andy, we had a little monstrance with us in that, our cabin.
00:26:20
Speaker
And so that was a big part of our day and we celebrated Mass every day.
00:26:25
Speaker
And then, of course, with Father Bramlage and his missions, we saw that he had Jesus on the altar for us.
00:26:33
Speaker
whenever there was a prayer ministry and, and, and that was, that was always very intentional, right?
00:26:38
Speaker
That, that when we, we prayed with people that we'd always direct their attention to Jesus because we're not, you know, when we pray with people, we never take credit for a healing.
00:26:50
Speaker
I don't get to say that I healed somebody.
00:26:53
Speaker
What I do get to say is that Jesus healed and I'm, and praise God that making me a willing instrument that I could help with it.
00:27:00
Speaker
And then, uh,
00:27:03
Speaker
Yeah, like anything I've been to with Encounter Ministries too, they do a lot with the Eucharist as part of the healing process as well.
00:27:12
Speaker
Actually, they have the Eucharist as part of their logo in the O of Encounter.
00:27:19
Speaker
Father, I'll let you talk about what we've kind of done on our missions now.
00:27:25
Speaker
Yeah.
00:27:26
Speaker
Or whatever you wanted to say.
00:27:28
Speaker
Yeah.
00:27:28
Speaker
I mean, the thing is, Jesus is always with us.
00:27:32
Speaker
All the healings are in the name of Jesus Christ.
00:27:34
Speaker
And Jesus left us, the Eucharist, as the sacrament of his abiding presence with us.
00:27:42
Speaker
He is with us.
00:27:43
Speaker
And so we have to remember that.
00:27:44
Speaker
And he is still doing these healings.
00:27:47
Speaker
And we see that most clearly in the Eucharist.
00:27:49
Speaker
And so we, when we have our kind of corporate healing service part of the, part of the evening, Jesus is on the altar in the Eucharist and in adoration.
00:28:04
Speaker
And so big part of that.
00:28:07
Speaker
And, you know, I,
00:28:10
Speaker
My hope is, Father Ubald told us this, he called, he said, healing as evangelization.
00:28:19
Speaker
That was the first mass that we had, the first thing he said was healing as evangelization.
00:28:23
Speaker
And I believe it's true that when we get a healing, that's not just for our
00:28:32
Speaker
body, you know, that's not just for us.
00:28:36
Speaker
It's also to help us to realize like how much God loves us and is with us and how he wants us to go deeper into the life of the church, which is
00:28:46
Speaker
to me, really means to receive the Eucharist more, to go to Mass more and to receive him more and to take that more seriously, to spend more time in adoration.
00:28:56
Speaker
That's where I see this being really, really powerful, this healing stuff is really powerful, is that it should draw us deeper into the life of the church.
00:29:10
Speaker
and to receive the sacraments more, more frequently, desire them or desire a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ through the sacraments.
00:29:19
Speaker
Because, you know, it's, yeah.
00:29:25
Speaker
I think it, I mean, if you're reading the Gospels once again, that stuff doesn't just stay there.
00:29:31
Speaker
It's continuing to exist all throughout history and even now.
00:29:35
Speaker
But when Jesus' primary work, not only to
00:29:40
Speaker
proclaim the kingdom of God, but also healing people.
00:29:42
Speaker
And then they would be, have to told, they had to be told to be silent and they would still run off and tell everyone he healed me.
00:29:50
Speaker
And then that is what started to, uh, you know, promote Jesus, uh, credentials that he's actually the Messiah.
00:29:58
Speaker
And, um, I think when we're healed of something, either interiorly, exteriorly, or both, then we're more disposed to, uh, do our duty as Christians.
00:30:08
Speaker
We're more free to, um,
00:30:10
Speaker
you know, talk about his goodness, talk about all the things he's done for us, but then to bring more people to him as well.
00:30:17
Speaker
And I think that's, that's one of the brilliant things about this is it's not just a magic trick to heal your arthritis.
00:30:23
Speaker
This is, this is deepening people's faith and deepening their devotion to the Lord.
00:30:30
Speaker
Yeah, I think that that's, I mean, it's the original evangelization.
00:30:35
Speaker
That's how we did things.
00:30:36
Speaker
Like the healings were absolutely because God loves his people and wants to see them healed.
00:30:41
Speaker
But that people might be drawn to the, like, so the message of the gospel always comes with healing and miracles.
00:30:48
Speaker
I believe that like the real preaching of the gospel always comes with that.
00:30:51
Speaker
So I even believe like if we're just going to go out and preach from the heart, really from the heart of Jesus,
00:30:58
Speaker
like that people find healing in that, you know, I mean, people will talk about how they've like, like a good homilies changed their life sometimes and not to put us on a pedestal or anything, but hopefully if we're preaching from the heart of the father, that like there's can be healing in that too.
00:31:14
Speaker
But I just, I just see it all makes sense, doesn't it?
00:31:18
Speaker
You know?
00:31:18
Speaker
And, and what I think what excites us, I think so much is that we see that,
00:31:24
Speaker
this can entice people to actually come to the church and to really see what the church has to offer her.
00:31:31
Speaker
You know, one thing that is so exciting to see, and in my parish at least, is Father Andy's dad, he stands here and he's great.
00:31:40
Speaker
What he does for me is he's like a setter and I get to spike the ball over the net all the time.
00:31:45
Speaker
And that's in different ways.
00:31:49
Speaker
that's a volleyball reference for all of you out there.
00:31:51
Speaker
And anyway, what he hasn't, you know, he talks to people who, you know, just around town, he sees people and invites them to come to like healing prayer or something.
00:31:59
Speaker
And, and, um, and we get to see these people just brought back after years, you know, after like decades, not being at the church and just finding that something new and, um, and really what they're able, it's just given a new vision for them.
00:32:17
Speaker
Um,
00:32:18
Speaker
to what's always been there, but for them to just be able to see it through the eyes of like, God actually wants to heal me and that he's going to, he's going to, he wants to.
00:32:29
Speaker
So it's just been amazing to see that more.
00:32:34
Speaker
Yeah.
00:32:34
Speaker
More.
00:32:35
Speaker
More, Lord, more.
00:32:36
Speaker
Yeah.
00:32:36
Speaker
More.
00:32:39
Speaker
Yeah.
00:32:40
Speaker
So, and I think it's, it really is, it's intimacy with the Lord that is really the source of all healing.
00:32:47
Speaker
And, uh, like, you know, and that's, that's all over in the gospels.
00:32:49
Speaker
Like the, it's touching Jesus, Jesus laying hands on them, his, or his word spoken to them.
00:32:55
Speaker
Um, and you know, like I can definitely say it's been in my deep experiences with the Lord and prayer that has brought a much inner healing in my life.
00:33:03
Speaker
Um, and of course the, the deepest, like the most, the most intermittent encounter with the Lord really is in the Eucharist, right?
00:33:09
Speaker
That his, his present to his body, blood, soul, and divinity receive him into ourselves.
00:33:14
Speaker
And, um,
00:33:15
Speaker
But also it's, but sometimes we don't appreciate that, right?
00:33:19
Speaker
And I remember you, Father Michael, talking about like baptism in the spirit, how being prayed over and receiving the spirit can also help us to see and appreciate the sacraments more deeply.
00:33:29
Speaker
Like that, because it's so easy for us to just take the Eucharist for granted and I think not appreciate the way the Lord wants to heal us in there.
00:33:36
Speaker
So like it's a two-way street.
00:33:37
Speaker
It's both Eucharist brings healing, but also being prayed over in the Holy Spirit, like
00:33:42
Speaker
allows us to be more open to receiving what God wants to do in and through the sacraments, right?
00:33:46
Speaker
And especially the Eucharist.
00:33:50
Speaker
And I, in my work with students at Waller, I encourage them to really pray for what they need after they receive the Eucharist, right?
00:33:58
Speaker
So,
00:34:00
Speaker
And I do that because of my deacon dad.
00:34:05
Speaker
He had an experience once where he felt like he had some cancer on his face, kind of by his temple.
00:34:13
Speaker
And he went to receive the Eucharist, and he felt the desire to ask for that to be healed right at that moment.
00:34:21
Speaker
And after he received Jesus, he
00:34:23
Speaker
And he felt it burn and disappear in that exact moment.
00:34:29
Speaker
So there is a physical healing connected with the Eucharist.
00:34:33
Speaker
And then I encourage, like, hey, in this moment of, you know, after you've received Jesus in your body, like, ask him for what you need.
00:34:43
Speaker
Like, this is the most intimate, you know, the most abiding time you have with him.
00:34:48
Speaker
So take that time after receiving the Eucharist,
00:34:52
Speaker
You know, if you're kneeling in prayer, mass, you're praying.
00:34:57
Speaker
You're really asking him for what you need, not just spacing off, waiting for the end of the mass so you can go get a donut.
00:35:07
Speaker
Yeah, and I think it speaks to that sacramental reality that the sacraments are both physical and spiritual, right?
00:35:16
Speaker
Which really is, I mean, it all flows from the incarnation that God, that in the person of Jesus, all of this is brought together.
00:35:22
Speaker
Heaven and earth are brought together, the physical and spiritual brought together.
00:35:24
Speaker
divine and earthly brought together, you know, human and human and godly, you know, and so it really is in Jesus that that's all found in and just like, yeah, what you're saying, Father Andy, it's it brings both physical and spiritual healing because the sacraments are physical and spiritual reality.
00:35:42
Speaker
This is all great.
00:35:43
Speaker
This is all real stuff, man.
00:35:45
Speaker
I love it.
00:35:46
Speaker
Something you said earlier, Father Kevin, makes me think.
00:35:49
Speaker
You said that sometimes either God can be hindered or you've all said that God wants to heal us.
Understanding God's Will in Healing
00:35:56
Speaker
And I think the natural next question is, but God's all powerful.
00:36:00
Speaker
And if he wants to do this, why doesn't he?
00:36:03
Speaker
And I think that's a question that a lot of people would struggle if they haven't either been healed or seen it or experienced one of these three-day missions.
00:36:12
Speaker
How can we hinder God, or if he wants to, why doesn't he?
00:36:21
Speaker
I think that, well, the first thing is that God's will is sovereign, right?
00:36:26
Speaker
And his ways are higher than our ways.
00:36:28
Speaker
So in a certain sense, it's almost like,
00:36:31
Speaker
okay, the answer to this is always going to fall a little short.
00:36:34
Speaker
But what we found, I think a lot of times and what kind of, I think that Father Andy alluded to a little bit is that there's usually some hard work to be done in this.
00:36:45
Speaker
A lot of times there's that and he wants the heart, you know, that's what he's after.
00:36:50
Speaker
You know, he's like, sure, I'll heal your hand, but like, but follow me, but come after me, like really have a relationship with me.
00:36:59
Speaker
Because none of this is like,
00:37:01
Speaker
Like someone else said before, it's like God's not a vending machine.
00:37:05
Speaker
Like if the healing was like that, then that's what it would be like.
00:37:08
Speaker
We would just come to church, get what we want, and then just go about our lives.
00:37:11
Speaker
And then next time I need a healing, I'm just going to come back to that.
00:37:16
Speaker
So otherwise, I think that.
00:37:19
Speaker
That maybe, you know, I think of God as, you know, he's eternal, right?
00:37:23
Speaker
He's the eternal presence.
00:37:24
Speaker
So he can see the whole timeline.
00:37:25
Speaker
I can't.
00:37:26
Speaker
And I don't know what, for what he's going to use something for.
00:37:30
Speaker
And I always hesitate to tell someone that God's got some higher purpose for the reason why you didn't get healed.
00:37:36
Speaker
I don't know that.
00:37:37
Speaker
And really that's kind of an insensitive thing to say to someone who's suffering.
00:37:40
Speaker
Right.
00:37:40
Speaker
But, but what I can say is that I've always seen that he brings goodness whenever, whenever,
00:37:46
Speaker
if we, if somebody feels the love of God when they're prayed over, then that's healing in itself because that's just, that's the relationship that we want.
00:37:54
Speaker
So.
00:37:57
Speaker
And part of it's just, just really surrendering whatever it is that we're going through to really, you know, give it to God and allow him to, to work.
00:38:08
Speaker
And,
00:38:09
Speaker
And, you know, because we talk often about redemptive suffering and all our physical, all the things we're going through can be redemptive suffering until we are healed, you know, but we keep...
00:38:24
Speaker
We keep going to the doctor for it.
00:38:25
Speaker
We keep taking medicine.
00:38:26
Speaker
We keep going to prayer.
00:38:27
Speaker
We do all these things according to Sirach 38, which is really a beautiful chapter, verses 1 through 12, Sirach 38, to talk about all of this.
00:38:39
Speaker
We just keep going to the doctor.
00:38:44
Speaker
And Dr. Jesus is a good doctor to consult.
00:38:51
Speaker
He's not a practicing physician.
00:38:52
Speaker
He's the...
00:38:54
Speaker
The divine physician, right?
00:38:56
Speaker
The divine.
00:38:58
Speaker
Yeah.
00:38:59
Speaker
Yeah.
00:39:00
Speaker
And I think part of what you guys are saying, like the vending machine, you said, Father Michael, like I sometimes use the analogy when I'm talking about this.
00:39:06
Speaker
We sometimes treat God as the divine Tylenol pill, you know, like I just go to him.
00:39:11
Speaker
So he makes me feel better and takes away my pain.
00:39:13
Speaker
Right.
00:39:15
Speaker
And I think maybe the key word is like he came to transform like the world and including transform our suffering.
00:39:22
Speaker
And so it's like the whole point is like it's intimacy with the Lord where we find healing.
00:39:28
Speaker
And sometimes it's the physical healing we ask for.
00:39:31
Speaker
And in fact, and I think part of what we're trying to do with this mission is showing people that maybe the Lord wants to do more of that than we realize.
00:39:40
Speaker
But also it's like it's about getting at the heart, the deeper healing.
00:39:44
Speaker
So like I've I know I've I know for myself and some friends of mine have like talked about just the profound beauty that comes in.
00:39:52
Speaker
I know I had a really powerful moment of realizing like the Lord can use my suffering.
00:39:57
Speaker
Like when I was having a hard time in ministry, like even my sufferings, even my shortcomings and even my failures and limitations, like that is the message of the cross is I united to Christ on the cross and he can transform that and use that for ultimately for my redemption and the redemption of the world.
00:40:15
Speaker
Like even my, what I perceive as my failures, my shortcomings, my limitations, um,
00:40:19
Speaker
which I think is also something to be said about God's providence in this is what we sometimes perceive as our limitations, including our physical limitations, our things like when given to the Lord, the Lord can use that for healing in the world.
00:40:33
Speaker
And I think that's something to be also be said that like turns it outward is like my suffering can be offered in love, out of love to others, like as prayer for others.
00:40:43
Speaker
And the Lord will either heal that or he'll bring about some deeper unseen redemption and healing
00:40:49
Speaker
for the world through that when I give it to him.
00:40:51
Speaker
That it can either be, it's either a thing that he heals or it can even be an instrument of healing our suffering, which is like really, really, really profound and crazy to think about.
00:41:04
Speaker
But I think the point is, is the Lord can use everything.
00:41:07
Speaker
And the point is when we draw close with the Lord, intimacy with him, like it's what he can do with that.
00:41:12
Speaker
And I know I read somewhere once in a book about someone who had healing ministry and he said,
00:41:18
Speaker
Whenever he laid hands and prayed over people, there's always some form of healing that happened.
00:41:21
Speaker
Maybe it wasn't always physical, but there's always a deeper sense of peace, a sense of feeling loved, kind of like what you guys said already.
00:41:28
Speaker
The Lord wants to do some healing.
00:41:30
Speaker
It may not be in the way we expect, but that his healing is at work.
00:41:36
Speaker
Yeah, I think that all hits it right on the head.
00:41:39
Speaker
And Father Andy said the key word, which is surrender, that constant surrender that you are God and I am not.
00:41:47
Speaker
And...
00:41:49
Speaker
just because the Lord didn't answer my prayers for my healing in the way that I wanted, doesn't mean that he's not doing something with it.
00:41:58
Speaker
And, and when I, I find that in my life, there's been various physical, emotional, and other types of pain.
00:42:06
Speaker
And through it all, he's, he's been there with me.
00:42:10
Speaker
um, journeying with me.
00:42:12
Speaker
And it's not about whether I got what I wanted or feel better.
00:42:15
Speaker
It's about how much he is with me and has been continuing to pour out his love on me through all of it.
00:42:22
Speaker
And I think when we surrender to that way of thinking, uh, it just, like Kevin said, it transforms, uh, the way we look at the economy of grace and our lives.
00:42:33
Speaker
So it's a whole new paradigm shift when you start to talk and think about surrender and abandonment of yourself to God's will.
00:42:41
Speaker
That's the heart of it, I think.
00:42:45
Speaker
Very much so.
00:42:47
Speaker
So I guess lastly, I mean, feel free to add any closing thoughts you have on any of it.
00:42:54
Speaker
But also, you just want to say a few more words about we have two scheduled missions coming up.
00:42:58
Speaker
And just especially this podcast will be coming out on January 15th.
00:43:03
Speaker
So it'll be in only a couple weeks, we'll be having one of these Holy Spirit missions at Nativity Parish in Dubuque.
00:43:09
Speaker
I forget the exact dates, but beginning of February.
00:43:11
Speaker
And then that's Father Andy's parish.
00:43:14
Speaker
So you can say more about that.
00:43:16
Speaker
Yeah, February 4th, 5th and 6th.
00:43:18
Speaker
It's a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday.
00:43:20
Speaker
Starts at 6 o'clock each night.
00:43:23
Speaker
Starts with some...
00:43:24
Speaker
praise and worship music.
00:43:26
Speaker
And yeah, Catholics can do that.
00:43:28
Speaker
And there'll be two teachings by priests each night, two talks each night.
00:43:40
Speaker
And then there'll be some time for some corporate prayer and then some time for some individual prayer.
00:43:47
Speaker
The first night is geared towards the Holy Spirit, baptism of the Holy Spirit.
00:43:52
Speaker
That's Sunday night.
00:43:53
Speaker
Monday night is more towards physical, some emotional healing too, inner healing.
00:44:00
Speaker
And then the third night, Tuesday night, is more about impartation and commissioning, setting people forth to do this in the world.
00:44:11
Speaker
So we're looking forward to it.
00:44:13
Speaker
It's going to be really a great, great event.
00:44:17
Speaker
Nativity is a huge church.
00:44:20
Speaker
It's the largest in the New York Diocese.
00:44:21
Speaker
It seats about 1,100.
00:44:23
Speaker
And I'm hoping we have it full.
00:44:27
Speaker
But people come from all over the place, and everybody's welcome.
00:44:34
Speaker
Catholic and non-Catholic.
00:44:36
Speaker
And I think it's great to mention too, like I think we'd be remiss not to say like, you know, this has been kind of a work of, well, the Holy Spirit that's worked through us as priests.
00:44:47
Speaker
But boy, have we been helped by others.
00:44:50
Speaker
And, you know, it's not that you have to be a priest to do this sort of ministry.
00:44:54
Speaker
I think that's something we didn't really touch on.
00:44:56
Speaker
But the majority of the folks that help us with prayer ministry are not priests.
00:45:01
Speaker
And so it's kind of like,
00:45:04
Speaker
God can heal through me and you too.
00:45:06
Speaker
You know, that kind of thing.
00:45:07
Speaker
It's just really amazing to see that we have folks that help us on the healing prayer teams and the Holy Spirit prayer as well.
00:45:17
Speaker
And so we're very grateful for their help as well and for what they bring to it because honestly, even in parish life, it's those folks, you know, well, deacons stand to be at my parish and then, but others who are helping a lot with that and,
00:45:34
Speaker
you know, that, that's really awesome.
00:45:37
Speaker
So this is a way that the laity, I believe is, is really being, um, just mobilized more and more because it just helps us to see that this is something that God has given for all, for all of his faithful.
00:45:50
Speaker
And then we're also going to have a mission in, in Ames at Iowa state, St.
00:45:53
Speaker
Thomas Aquinas,
