#1 On October 13, 2005, Father Gary Thomas stepped out onto Via delle Fornaci in Rome. He was there to visit the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which was the gatekeeper of Church doctrine. He felt he was part of something bigger than himself.

#2 In the winter of 2005, Father Gary was assigned to be an exorcist by his bishop. He was surprised when his friend Father Kevin Joyce told him that the Vatican had sent a letter to every diocese in the United States asking that an exorcist be appointed.

#3 The appointment of an exorcist caught Father Gary off guard, but he was willing to accept the role. He knew he had the stomach for anything to help people, and he was excited to learn more about the Devil.

#4 In Italy, exorcism is becoming more and more popular. There are now over 350 officially appointed exorcists, and the police have created a special squad to investigate the phenomena.
