Now this, Alex, is a wonderful conversion story! Not all converts suffer from “crazy convert disease”!:)

Beautiful! God bless you! Ave Maria!

Mary has continued shower upon us the roses we so ardently desire. Now, four years later, I am married to a wonderful, Godly, Maronite-Rite Catholic man.

Alright!!! The Maronites are very devoted to the Blessed Mother. Immediately following Baptism, the godparents carry the child, accompanied by the parents and family members and led by the priest, in a candlelight procession to the statue of the Blessed Mother, chanting a beautiful song of dedication to Mary.

Thank you, Annalex, for posting this beautiful thread!

Many more blessings to you!

Our Blessed Mother seeks only to bring us closer to her Son.

Scott Hahn strikes again! I wonder how many converts he has helped “get started” on the WAY. I know I was one—though lots of others contributed.

[Salvation]

BTTT! What an intriguing story about keeping everything hidden. I also wonder how many ‘Christians’ receive such and indoctrination during their college years at a so-called ‘Christian’ college.

Glad to be back.
