LOL!

BTW, my Savannah-based s-i-l entered the Church this past Easter Vigil.

She had been raised in the Church of Christ denomination. Father and brother are ordained pastors in that community.

Any symptoms of whiplash there? That's a bit of a change. We had a shakedown period that lasted about 3-4 months, and we were ultra-high Anglicans to begin with (as my dad says, "Up in the rafters with the bats" or "Up in the cheap seats.") Seriously, prayers for her and welcome.

I think the hardest thing for us converts is not the theology, but the little details that "everybody" (i.e. cradle Catholics) draw in with their mothers' milk and don't even have to think about. Like -- how much is considered appropriate as an offering when you sign up to have a Mass said for a relative?

I've gotten past looking out of the corners of my eyes to see what everybody else is doing. If I don't know . . . I just ask.

You're very much mistaken. They could not have been "ordained pastors" in the CoC because the CoC doesn't have "ordained pastors" or ordained anything. It's "not authorized by scripture!"
