From Japanese Mafia to Catholic Priest w/ Fr. Donald Calloway 

Stories like this are great because it shows anyone can become catholic

More proof that God is in the recycling business. Redemption testimony always moves me because I am one of those recycled sinners and I know just how cold and lonely the other side is. Thanks for sharing your amazing story Father Calloway.

I was absolutely blown away by this testimony of Fr. Calloway. Certain proof that "nothing is impossible with God". Amazing! This needs to be known far and wide.

Whenever I see fr Calloway on a video I have to click on it. He really inspires me and reminds me that God can turn us around at any time.

I wonder if any Japanese Mafia is watching this and thinking "I know this guy!"

First watched a video of Fr. Don Calloway's conversion about 8 years ago. What a beautiful example of divine providence and the proof that there is a Saint in every Sinner and a Sinner in every Saint. Consecrate yourself to St. Joseph!

23/02/2022 THANK YOU BLESSED MOTHER! Another "win" for your Son. Prayers for ALL Priests and Religious, including Papa Francis from the Great South Land; Land of The Holy Spirit.

I never knew this about Father Calloway! There is hope for everyone.

Fr. Calloways testimony is both a testament to God's unending forgiveness and grace, but also a testament to what we are all capable of if we just submit ourselves to God's will and entrust ourselves under the mantle and care of our heavenly mother!

I have complex (ugly) Japan-related story as well. But man, I love they way Callaway ran through this in a humorous way. I need to get to that point.

No one else in the world is like Fr. Calloway

Love it! Same sort of conversion happened to me, through watching a video on Medj, so grateful to see this thank you ☺️☺️☺️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Love to listen to your stories. At this point in my life, I am having a difficult time. Through you and Father Goring, I learn , I do feel Jesus-and Mary are giving me guidance. Thank you.

I read about an ex murder WHO converted catholic and become fransiscan priest

Stories like these are great because they are true and show the power of the Virgo Potens

I love this amazing story from wildman delinquent to cool Priest. God bless you Father Calloway!

Fr’s book just blew my mind!!!

9:05 yep Father that’s how it happens a lot of the time. It happened with me a while back when I was an upset kid and I just felt an urge to go to her. Eventually that’s how I started looking at Jesus a different way. Before I was just unaware of who he was despite going to Catholic school for 2-4 years.

How many souls get led astray into really sinful lives only to find the reality,the peace the way is Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Very inspirational

Wow, thank you for sharing Fr!

Fr. Calloway used to say it was a book about Medjugorje that converted him, but I notice he no longer specifically mentions Our Lady of Medjugorje! Our Lady saved my life in Medjugorje! I wish more priests and bishops and converts would speak of all the conversions there!! Witness Our Lady of Medjugorje!

Wow, just wow. Glory to God in the highest! 🙏

Lord, make me chaste, but not yet.- St. Augustine of Hippo

Hey, there's more to his story! I want an hour long interview!

Wow. Amazing story. If God helped him turn his life around what can he if we ask.

Fr Calloway's life is an amazing story, it gives me hope for my backslid children. Praying for you !

Amazing!!!

With God all things are possible .Praise d Lord !

Amazing testimony!!

I love Father Calloway! Do you have the full story on one video? I wish these were numbered so I could see them in order. I would love to see the whole thing on one video!

Wow, Fr Calloway's story is really interesting, I was really getting more into the story only for it to get cut off suddenly...

This is amazing. I had no idea Fr. Calloway had a story like this

Excellent lesson ❣️

Amazing story.I am impressed.

My dad and brothers went and saw this priest speak, but I was sick and didn't go so they told me about it after. Seeing this video, I really wish I wasn't sick.

This is the Yakoozie and we approve this message. God Bless!

I'm blown, balles over. God Bless

Amazing story!

Fr. Donald especially chosen by God. God bless him always....

Thank You Lord Jesus 🙏 for saving this wretched soul!

GOD can change anyone.

Balled over, wonderfull story

Good sharing

WOW! WHAT A STORY . HOPE TO LEARN MORE.

I have a similar conversion to father’s living in California. At a young age I began following now convert and protestant pastor David Rocha’s (who has a RU-vid channel for his ministry) then gang music. However, I wanted to “slow my roll” to give my mom an easier time and began staying home not going out. Paths began converging into me coming across music from a Christian rap artist local to the area who’s music I began sprinkling in my listening repertoire which was mostly gang music. My mom being a good catholic mom, once came back from a charismatic convention and I asked her, “what did the preacher say”, just to make conversation. She said to “read from Genesis to Apocalypse”, and I asked “what’s that”, she said “that’s from the beginning to the end of the Bible“. Then I interiorly asked myself out of curiosity, “what’s up with this Bible stuff and why do so many people pay attention to it?” Then right then and there I just said out loud, “I’m gonna read it”. And so I began reading little by little from the beginning (mind you I barely graduated high school). All I had to go with were the Bible kid’s movies from childcare when my mom would take us to prayer groups as kids. But that was enough lol they had me hooked waiting to get to those stories and the good thing is that at the beginning of the Bible there’s a lot of violence and which felt like an action movie for som reason:) All in all, I’d eventually have a dream of being crucified next to Jesus like the good thief and when waking up and sharing it with my grandma, another pillar of faith, she shared Paul’s words “I’ve been crucified for Christ and it’s no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me”. I said in excitement, “that’s what the artist says!” and just like that I was able to tell my grandma “I’m gonna change”. Thanks be to God!

What an incredible story! I thought this video would be a discussion on a converted yakuza but was shocked that it was the priest himself! And to think that was only the beginning of his troubles. Wow! Reminds me of that hollywood socialite turned Priest who used to be on EWTN whose name I can't remember atm.

Great clip but what about Sips with Aquinas?

This story is wild

The book the queen of peace and the book glowed

Same family

DEVINE 2×4 ✔💯

Being a catholic is such blessing.

Wow

Things that makes you go hmmm

🙏❤️🙏

He's right about Filipinas hahaha!

And she did the same for me

Matt Doesn't know the infamous Yakuza mafia . ??

Thank you Jesus

LETS HOPE THAT CHRISTIANITY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DESTROY THE WONDERFUL BUDDHISTIC AND SHINTOISTIC CULTURE OF THIS UNIQUE LAND JAPAN.

Can anyone please say who was the Saint who said this at 09:28? Where can I find this quote?

👍👍🙏✝️

Nothing impossible to God

I wish Fr. Calloway would have told Matt what his last name was before Calloway. I believe it was "Crock"

From Japanese Mafia to Holy Roman Empire Soldier😏🤫

I find it crazy that Matt Fradd had no clue who Donald Calloway was other than his book didn't bother to read or watch a past interview of his to be familiar I mean just seems strange to me

No one has heard of the YAKUZA? GOKUDO?

Mom gave him the phone to speak to the priest and he started cursing out the priest

Callaway not calloway

You had to crawl into the sewage system in Japan to avoid the police

So, lemme get this straight. He thinks his parents have gone nuts by joining a "cult". Then he himself goes on to become a priest of that "cult". This is an incredible testimony!!!

Then he had to put up with that Novice brother from Kentucky for a while..now THAT was penance

I thought the Japanese police pinned him down manage to wrestle his boney self even though he was stronghe ran threw the money away and crossing the highway like frogger

And his drug partner Joel who had a blonde afro dus him at the train station

A white kid running drugs for the Yakuza? Right....

Why does he say the priest told his mom about the Eucharist, confession and the saints but he didn't mention the gopsel or anything about Jesus? And why does this guy leave Jesus almost completely out of his testimony? Mary is blessed but Jesus says "blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it."
