homeschoolmom Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 My beloved husband spent the evening telling my mom about our conversion. I didn't have the heart to do it. (We couldn't both do it... children are too interuptive)... And, I am tying up the phone line so that she can't call me tonight. I don't want to talk about it while she is still mad!! :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: I have no idea how it went... I'm guessing not well. Tomorrow we will call his parents in AZ and tell them... over the phone... and they will have had no way to see it coming... Last they knew we were a nice little Baptist family with absolutely no understanding of Catholicism... See what happens when you snowbird??? Pray for us...

annie Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 God bless you and your hearts.....will pray for all involved. Our family has the opposite problem---a bro in law who left the Church and we all just found out. It is sticky, but your post has helped me to get a grip on my emotions and remember how much we love him, and that God is sovereign and people are loved to Christ, not argued to Christ......Thanks for sharing!

Colleen Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Sorry to hear about the difficulty. But I will keep you in my prayers. Don't worry, just ask the Holy Spirit to guide your words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 sadly, it's just what the reprecussions are of Christ's radical message [quote]Do not think that I came to send peace upon earth: I came not to send peace, but the sword. For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.[/quote] [i]St. Matthew 10:34-35[/i] just read this passage and know that this is the right path, and Christ promised such things would happen. just take courage and rejoice, for you are truly blessed and your reward is great in heaven [i]St. Matthew 5:10-12[/i], pray for them to find the truth too. Pax et Amorque Christi. may the Love of Christ melt through their hearts if their hearts are hardened to His Church. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
