Everyone was captivated by Fr. Jonathan's talk as he spoke from his heart about his personal love & respect for the sanctity of life. . . . he humbly put himself in our minds & hearts as he shared personal life situations & experiences w/ the audience.

He spoke in broad terms from a Christian perspective, not just a Catholic perspective. . . . the declines within our culture over the last 25 years as we have moved away from the Lord--and the values He has set for us. . . . We need more Fr. Jonathans!

Fr. Jonathan delivers a sincere, heartfelt, humorous, and soul enriching presentation regarding the meaning of suffering and how our suffering can be the key to unlocking the promise God has for each of us.

Even women who were not churchgoers could recognize that before them was a person who could have chosen worldly success, but instead chose a life of service motivated by an authentic and radical love for God and His people.

I would compare him to a spiritual master chef who manages to add just the right ingredients of a gifted orator, an insightful intellect, and a heartfelt message topped off with just the right pinch of humor.

Fr. Jonathan spoke to a packed church Hall of about 400 people and was huge success. He was highly informative, practical, and engaging, received a roaring and enthusiastic standing ovation at the end.
