I attend Mass and receive Communion, I've been baptised and confirmed in the Catholic Church, I abide by the Vatican authority, if that's what you're asking.
My dad was a Catholic Priest (after I was born, converted and was confirmed a Catholic Priest).
Unfortunately, he's no longer here to talk this over with, but I've been saying some prayers for his intercession, particularly being that Father's Day is tomorrow.
Now I'm depressed again. Sorry.
Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host -
by the Power of God -
cast into hell, satan and all the evil spirits,
who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
Run that by me one more time...was your dad in another denomination (Anglican or such)?
I hope you had a Mass said for him.
You have my prayers that you will know and do God's will and that you will have consolation regarding the loss of your dad.
