I'm so excited for you. ...This is so cool, Maranda. I'm so excited for you. Not sure if you know, but I was raised Catholic. James and I had a Catholic wedding (without Mass, since James isn't Catholicc). In the past two years we've found an awesome, life-changing church that we attend ... though it's not Catholic. Even so, I love to read about how other people have strengthened their walk with God. The past five years of my life have been SO different in how I have related to God and the work He has done in my life is so unbelievable. <BR/><BR/>It's so comforting to read here about the Catholic settings and rituals you're experiencing because to me, even if I'm not attending a Catholic church currently, that setting is such a big part of my history. <BR/><BR/>Keep blogging about this! :) James and I will pray for this journey to continue impacting you in the awesome way it has already. I'd love to talk to you more about Catholicism and what you're learning (you probably know more by now than I remember from my childhood)! :)<BR/><BR/>We'll see you in a few weeks at Christmas Eve, right?McMahan familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13440618225226487798noreply@blogger.com
