TeresaAvila Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 VeniteAdoremus: I LOVE your story, and haha love the bit about the choir, I bet they were all so happy for you though! well my story is rather lengthy, so to sum it up shorlty, I came from the Methodist Faith but I always wanted to be a catholic from when I was a little girl (beautiful but long story how our lord guided me) and finally in 04 I found my home in my Parish and began studying the catechism with my priest and on April 10, 2004 I was recieved into the church and interesting is my original baptism when I was a baby at 9 mos. old in the methodist church was April 10, 1977. I am just SO in love with Holy Mother Church!! [quote name='VeniteAdoremus' post='1164251' date='Jan 14 2007, 08:49 AM'] Conversion stories! Yay! Yay! (Not much to tell on my part - I was raised by Catholic parents who dediced to give me "the choice" (ehm, pardon? the choice to live in sin and darkness? sore spot there... ), went to a Catholic school, sung in the Cathedral choir, and got baptised and confirmed during the Easter Vigil in the year 2000, when I was 16. Funny detail: I'd forgotten to mention it to my choir, so when the baptismal candidates were called forward, I was like "Oh, pardon, coming through, coming through!) [/quote]
