I converted to Catholicism when I was 30 years old and it has brought me so close to the Lord and gave me so much Joy and Hope🎁🙏❤️

[@andrewpelt]

I’m currently discerning the Catholic Church’s claims of authority and overall doctrines. I’ve also looked into and am somewhat open to Eastern Orthodoxy. I’m currently an evangelical youth pastor. I appreciate anyone’s prayers for Christ’s wisdom and encouragement during this time. I just want to know the Truth.

I will offer up prayer for your journey towards truth. Please keep watching Journey home videos from the back catalogue, there are some amazing stories of Christians finding their fulfillment in the Catholic Church. Your story echoes many others I have witnessed, Faithful Christians yearning for true worship and a deeper relationship with Jesus in Holy Communion. I also discerned EO but I disagreed with the nationalistic variants and a few other things. The richness of spiritual development by those who sacrificed everything to God is what drew me into the Catholic Church. I wanted to know how I could decrease so that He could increase, I wanted to learn how to pass through the narrow gate, I wanted to know how to become as little children, I wanted to know how to die to self and let Christ live in me. The Catholic Church gave me the teaching garnered over hundreds of years on how to live the scriptures. I could write more but I would like to hear some of your questions if you have any. I could also point you in the direction of some reading resources should you need them.

@@marinasantos5151 Thank you!

“IF” you have not already, please consider going to Adoration of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament (also known as “Holy Hour”). Call your local parish and find out when they offer it. Then, just go and sit in silence in Christ’s Presence. Take your bible. Read scripture, pray, contemplate. Tell the Lord of your search for truth, of your doubts, worries, even fears. Then, be as patient with Him as He has been with you. When you receive the grace to know that HE IS THERE, you will be forever changed. Miracles occur in Christ’s presence - of that I can personally attest.

What a beautiful testimony brother, I am very happy to hear you and your wife are doing Catholic missionary work. If someone wants to help your missionary work, how to go about it.

Johnathon you have been bewitched away from the truth. Church of Rome is nothing like the church of apostolic times and at least for a couple of centuries after that. Your doubts about the Eucharist and teaching of Mary etc. were correct!!

[@HAL9000-su1mz]

Satan speaks. I would seriously consider informing yourself and then repenting.
