Hello! I'm Jeanine and am a 36-year-old Catholic in the SE United States. I was baptized Catholic as a baby and could not imagine another Christian path (even though I know that, technically, all paths lead to God).

Blessings....Jeanine

Thank you for letting me be a member. I look forward to learning from this site! Sometimes it is embarrassing to ask someone face to face certain questions.

As a Cradle Catholic, I haven't always been the best at explaining the Caholic faith. I lived in North Carolina and Virginia for several years and met dozens of Fundamentalists. They got me into the habit of suggesting good Catholic books that answer basic questions that many non-Catholics have about the faith. I strongly recommend anything written by Dr. Scott Hahn. He has been able to explain some of the deepest subjects so well that even I can understand them! Check out Dr. Hahn's two books - "The Lamb's Supper", and "Hail, Holy Queen". Excellent easy reading on the Mass, and the Blessed Mother!

Hello! My name is Daniel and it is a pleasure to be a new member of this forum. I am married to Mary and we have a 10-year-old son, Sean. We moved to Azusa, CA recently after having lived in Pasadena, CA. I still work in Pasadena as the Financial Manager of the California-Pacific United Methodist Foundation (I'm the token Catholic...ha!) I am a convert, having been a Catholic for 10 years now. It is the best decision I've made!
