Berlin_Freeper,
your wife is awesome!

I have strong affection for converts. I’ve mentioned in previous threads that both of my parents are converts: my dad’s dad and grandfather were presbyterian ministers (dad’s said his was an intellectual leap, essentially reading himself into the Church), and my mom came from a more fundamentalist background, but knew from early childhood that she was called to Catholicism.

My wife was raised in the sbc, and heard an irresistible call, which she is following, which began because of Saint Bernadette Soubirous. She’ll be joining the Church this year. Janet’s answer was somewhat similar to your wife’s.

Salvation, thank you, again, for another wonderful thread.

All I can say is “Welcome home, Janet. We’re so glad you’re here.”
