Saying yes to Jesus
These are the stories that create Yes Catholic.
Jackie Angel
I've co-written two books with my husband and I am a regular contributor on the Ascension Presents YouTube channel. I am also one of the presenters on Ascension Press' Chosen: Your Journey Toward Confirmation.
Sr. Maria Gemma (SOLT)
He continues to heal me and to pour His mercy into my heart, revealing parts of me that are further in need of His touch and His compassion. I belong to the One who loves me more than anyone else ever could, or will.
Bobby Angel
A Cradle-Catholic who awoke to the beauty of Christ and the Church late in high school, my life’s been marked with that Augustinian “restless” longing for as long as I can remember.
Jessica Hanna
No matter how my story continues or where my ministry takes me, I know one thing for certain…God’s plan is my only plan, I have no plan B!
Karen Doyle
It was in this brokenness that He rebuilt my sense of identity as His beloved daughter. There was a profound realization that my value came from being a child of God.
Kitty Cleveland
In an adoration Chapel one day in 1998, as she searched for God during a devastating family crisis, she clearly heard the Lord Jesus call her to become a “music missionary.”
Christopher Quinn
It’s been a wild ride but I suspect it’ll only get wilder. My personal journey with God started in 7th grade and it’s hard to believe how faithful He’s been to me for 15 years. Jesus Christ is Lord.
Mara Pastrana
I thank the Lord that my delayed obedience was not put to waste. He made something very good and waited patiently for me to respond to His call.
James Rutter
My friend had given me a Father Mike Schmitz CD titled “True Worship.” We listened to it on the way to the hearing and that’s what officially started our journey back Home. That’s when we finally knew what we were missing in the Eucharist.
Kramer & Andrea Soderberg
Our journey has taught us that when we lean on our own plans and our own understandings, we are sure to fall. When we surrender our own plans, hopes, and desires completely over to God’s will—everything, in the end, happens for our good—for God loves us, and His plan for us is perfect!
Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow
Edward’s words inspired a mission to bring hungry children to school by providing Mary’s Meals. Working with like-minded people and in partnership with some of the world’s poorest communities, Magnus leads a mission that lets children all over the world know they matter.
Adam Minihan & David Niles
Two men in their 20s are the unlikely owners and operators of Broken Arrow’s only local Catholic radio station, St. Michael Catholic Radio, 102.9 FM.
Mari Pablo
In the past few years God has reminded me that His plans are WAY better than mine! From teaching, to working with Ascension Press, to speaking and more.
Kyle Walter
I’ve learned the importance of surrounding yourself with other faithful individuals, but also the fact that at the end of the day having a personal relationship with Christ is a decision you have to make on your own.
Jackie Mulligan
I remember praying-- "I can't do this alone, but You can through me, and so I trust You, Jesus: help me, help others." Reform changed me, and I pray it changes you, too. My faith saved me; I pray it saves you, too.
Brother John Kenny
After many years of preparation and formation, I realized that I am a weak and poor instrument, but nonetheless chosen by God to carry His message of mercy.
Camila Holanda
I couldn’t imagine what would happen after I recorded this song in a very amateur way. We made it at home, and then we posted it. The mark of 2 million views really got me, and the people’s faith testimonies.
