And I opened up, you know, this room that was right next to the cathedral, which I went to a lot.

And there were like two young people in there, like 20s, you know.

And I am from a very small town in South Australia.

And I was the only young person who believed in Jesus Christ.

I was trying to get other people to come along with me, but there was no one there, you know.

And I said to them, can I help you or can you help me?

It turned out they were part of this missionary team called Net Ministries that would travel across Australia and run retreats for high school students.

I was just so excited to meet other young Catholics who love Jesus Christ.

There were about 12 of them.

They were all normal and good looking.

They weren't weird, like how that stereotype we sometimes have of young Christians.

And they asked if we could pray together.

I'm like, all right, yeah, sure.

Let's do that.

That sounds good.

So we walk into the cathedral.

It's about, I don't know, 9 p.m.

at night.

And I sit down and they stand around me and they start praying over me.

And, you know, I was all about it.
