When Finding the Truth Means Losing A Lot

Hi Gang:

I thought you would find the following article about what happens to a Jehovah's Witness when they convert to the Catholic Church interesting. Here is the link:

Thanks for the great artical, Jeff. I had no idea that former JWs were shunned. Very interesting. God bless your apostolate.

HSMom, hard first week of school?

Jeff, thanks for the reminder that not all converts have an easy road - and bless you in your task, you didn't pick an easy one.

Note the time of the post....

I'd already been up for two hours with a sick toddler... :

Excellent article, Jeff. When I was in the hospital two years ago, my roommate was a Jehovah's Witness. She asked me if I'd like to take a look at one of her books for consolation, but I politely declined; however, I did see an opportunity to talk about Catholicism with her. If I remember correctly, we discussed Mary. I think I might have flustered her a bit, which I regret in hindsight. (I tend to be pushier than I'd like when discussing religion and such.) In the days after our discussion, she was friendly with me, but I got the impression that she might have felt guilty about associating with me.
