Well, this will be a test for me, as the hardest thing I will have to learn is obedience. However, I think this is my worst character trait, and I think the Lord wants me to learn it.

I have been feeling this call for quite a while, but the last month has convinced me I should make this effort.

The best obedience grows from love. All of Catholicism grows from and points back to Christ. As you pray and thus as your love for Him grows, obedience will turn from a command to a delight.

Keep praying!

If you have a trusted and close Catholic friend or relative, you should honor them by asking him/her to sponsor you. The Church does not want you to make this journey of faith alone.

And, keep us informed, so that we can pray and be with you as you join this wonderful Body of Christ!
