Here are some testimonials we have received. 

The "Everyone Suffers" Conference provides a roadmap from the pain we experience each day to the healing love God offers so beautifully in the Catholic Church. The Brown family's personal stories of job loss, health issues and other struggles are inspirational, and their practical suggestions for finding relief will transform your life!

As the Director of Adult Faith Formation, I wanted to let you know that having author Carl Brown come in to share about the Seven Sorrows of Mary Devotion was a powerful experience for our parish. So many people were moved by his reflections, and they now have more tools to enrich their prayer life. His book “Something You Can Count On” connects a lot of “dots” in the spiritual life. We are already planning on having him come back!

Carl did a great job connecting the 7 Sorrows, Scripture, and prayer to tie it all together in a way that is helpful for the spiritual life and contemplation on the Christian meaning of suffering. The conference had a great impact on our parish.

I did not know anything about the Seven Sorrows Rosary until you came and spoke after Mass. I have been praying it most every day since. And after today's conference, I don't want to miss even one day. I had learned about suffering and have offered up many things, but this conference just confirmed the value of suffering. Thank you so much!

You inspired me! I’m going to start saying the Seven Sorrows Rosary every day from now on!

I really enjoyed the conference. I felt so blessed that you came into our community to share such a powerful, urgent and life-changing message. I really enjoyed hearing your wife and sons’ story as well. I’m excited to read the book and make saying the 7 sorrows part of my daily life.

I have a 17 year old son who struggles with addiction and so I am praying for him and so many others who are suffering right now. I hope God continues to bless you and your family. Thank you!
