Well . . . we waited too long.

As "high church" Episcopalians in a traditionally Low diocese, we had nowhere to go but the Catholic Church. I was worried whether my husband would accept that (he was raised Methodist even though his mom was raised Catholic - she married a P.K.)

But then he brought it up . . . so we high-tailed it across the Tiber. And here we are, just wishing we had got here sooner . ..

Ditto, for me...except I took a detour through a "continuing" Anglican denomination along the way. What I discovered was that I was still involved in "reformed catholicism" when what I was really searching for was "transforming catholicism." So, I finally waded across the Tiber, too. Like you, I wish I'd gone "home to Rome" a whole lot sooner.

I and mine chose the Bosphorus instead of the Tiber.
