I attended Mass for eight years waiting for my husband to agree to having our marriage blessed in the Church. It’s hard to go and not receive the Eucharist, but I knew the Lord would open my husband’s heart eventually. My heart goes out to you. I know of what you speak.

(I would not believe in the Gospel, if the authority of the Catholic Church did not move me to do so.)

Ah, but it’s all good now:)
I literally attend Mass daily and twice on Sunday, lol!
I also serve as an EM, lector and teach CCD.
I learned a LOT of patience with my husband and the Lord.

"I attended Mass for eight years waiting for my husband to agree to having our marriage blessed in the Church.

Turns out there really was no impediment to our marriage (we were convinced there was) and we were able to have our marriage blessed. We ACHED for Communion (both baptized as children, married outside the Church as adults. it was worth the wait.

I am embarrassed if you already know this...do it.
You can pray a prayer asking Our Lord to come to you in a spiritual communion. Everyone can.
