“Conversion is for all of us.”

Felipe Cunha

Lay Speaker · Legion of Mary, Belfast

Felipe Cunha brings a different voice to the Rediscover the Path series — not that of a clergyman, but of a layperson living out the faith in the everyday. Originally from Brazil, Felipe has made Belfast his home and has become a dedicated member of the Catholic community here. His perspective as someone who has navigated life between cultures and continents gives him a unique understanding of what it means to search for belonging, purpose, and God in unfamiliar terrain. As an active legionary, Felipe knows first-hand that conversion is not a single moment but a daily choice — a choice made in the mundane and the extraordinary alike. His talk draws on the Legion of Mary’s own teaching that every member, at every stage, is a work in progress under Our Lady’s gentle guidance.

About This Talk

We often think of conversion as something that happens to other people — dramatic stories of atheists who suddenly believed, or sinners who saw the light. But what about the rest of us? What about the person who goes to Mass most Sundays but still feels something is missing? What about the person who prays, but wonders if anyone is listening? Conversion, Felipe will argue, is not a one-off event reserved for the spectacular few. It is for all of us, every day.

In this honest and deeply personal session, Felipe Cunha reflects on his own ongoing journey of conversion — the moments of grace and the moments of struggle, the times when faith felt easy and the times when it felt impossible. He speaks as a layperson, a father, a worker, and a legionary — someone who knows that holiness is not about being perfect, but about getting up each morning and choosing to try again.

This talk is a powerful reminder that wherever you are in your journey, you are not behind. You are not too late. The invitation to draw closer to Christ is renewed every single day, and it is meant for you.

Conversion is not a destination. It is the daily decision to turn your face towards the light, even when the road is dark.
