I received this message from Kathleen: I was raised a Catholic,12 yrs of Catholic School,born again Baptized in the Holy Spirit in a Catholic Church in 1976. Since then I left the Church and sometimes I still feel that Im a Catholic,it was like my Heritige(IrishCatholic)but frankly I don't agree with alot of Church laws. If we could talk maybe IM each other.I would like to be very honest with you and likewise.My Father is still living and I worry about salvation he is 86 and hasen't been to Mass for yrs.My mother is 80. Please Please answer my letter I'm confused. Kathleen and replied: Hi Kathleen, Please feel free to chat. I am on a little forum dedicated to Our Lady with a small group of other believers, you are welcome to join us and chat away. Hopefully we may be able to answer your concerns. it is the Mother of God Forum and it is here: http://motherofgod.freeforums.org/portal.php I ask for your prayers for Kathleen and her family and to welcome her if Our Lady leads her here, which I pray she doea.
WOW! Padraig, It's another wonderful opportunity to share and to learn. I'll keep Kathleen in my prayers. My list is sure growing! In the Hearts of Jesus and Mary!
Kathleen, I hope you took Padraig advice and take a tour of his website. Many, many Catholic’s do not agree sadly with many of the Catholic laws. That is why there are over 20,000 different churches and many more to come. Please share those that you do not or cannot accept. Many times it is just a misunderstanding of the correct teaching or a teaching that has been taught incorrectly. I strongly suggest reading the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Next to the Bible, I think it is one of the best books I have ever read. You should be able to find one locally, on line, or at the nearest Catholic Church. May our Blessed Mother and our prayers bring you home… Cecil
kathleen you are in my prayers particularly your elderly parents. Today I will pray the Divine mercy chaplet for them. Its really powerful. Mary
