I am a young unwed mother, and my entire life my own mother spoke to me of the evils of the catholic church. However, my boyfriend of almost 2 years is catholic, and I love the values him and his family share. And I want to give my child(ren) the solid foundation of faith that I never had. And I sure could've used it during my seriously messed up childhood! But it is a big step.
I believe in God.
I believe in prayer.
But can I truly become whole-heartedly catholic?? I want to...but I'm scared.
Has anyone else done it? Was it hard leaving old beliefs behind? Also, my mother doesn't approve, so I would only have my boyfriend's catholic family as my support system...would you do it in my shoes???
