Welcome back to Catholic Gantz was live.

I'm Cy Kellett, your host, and as promised, Father Sebastian Walsh is our guest.

Father is a Norbertine priest from St. Michael's Abbey, just up the road from us in Orange County.

In a beautiful, I can describe it now because I've been there. I went there recently. In a beautiful

valley, a magnificent looking church, and what do you call it, a cloister,

or what do you call the house? Well, the whole thing's called an abbey. And then the abbey has a part

that's a cloister part where the priests live. It has the church. And then it has some other things,

you know, administrative offices, a cemetery chapel, and everything else. And it is just lovely there.

And Father, of course, is the author of the book that you hear me give away all the time,

Secrets from Heaven, but also Always a Catholic.

Secrets from Heaven is about the sayings of Jesus, the conversations of Jesus,

and always a Catholic, is about just that, helping your kids to remain always a

Catholic or to return, if they have left. Norbertine, you have another name, and I always try to say it,

but what's the real? Pramonstratensions. You're the Preymonstetensions. That's right, yeah.

We were founded in the valley of Preymontres, which is in northeastern France today, about where

Maine is in the United States, kind of the equivalent place in France.

Oh, yeah.

Have you ever gotten to go there?

Oh, yeah.

I went there once and saw the, believe it or not, the abbey that used to

belong to the Norbertines was seized during the time of the French Revolution, and now they've

made it into, of all things, an insane asylum. Is that amazing? Wow. Wow. Yeah, I'm not surprised
