I know an 18 year-old from a Muslim family who wants to enter the Church. When he approached the local priest to ask to join, he was told he had to wait until he finished high school, and get his parents' permission to join. (Which of course they won't give, because they're Muslim) Is there anything that can be done? (He already contacted his diocese's bishop, who said the same thing) Do pray for him.
Praying. In the States, he'd be allowed to convert without parental approval at age 18 (but this young man is still in high school, so must still be living in the parental home).
