If you want to find a Catholic, go to a mass on Sunday! They are held at various times and many have the office open. You will most likely find a member there who is exiting from the mass and be glad to take the time to answer your questions. The Priest himself may be a bit busy but I am sure would be glad to set a time that is convenient to answer your questions. Or e-mail me and I will be glad to help as best I can. I was a seminarian but fell in love and got married (can't be married AND a priest). I am a member of the Franciscan Religious order though, and am a part of the Liturgical Ministry in our local parish.

A catholic myself, I would be happy to help you, but if you would much rather talk to someone in person I would find your local Catholic Church, and after a mass, stop in and ask the priest for a few minutes of his time.

Go to the local Catholic Church and ask to speak to the priest, tell him about your assignment and I am sure you will have your answers.

Call the Catholic Chancery in your area and ask for the phone number of a retired priest who can take an hour to answer your questions.

I suggest you walk down to your neighborhood Catholic Church tomorrow (Sunday) morning (hopefully between Masses) and ask around for a Catholic who can answer your questions.
With love in Christ.

Call your local catholic church and ask. I would think most churches like to advertise their beliefs and would accomodate you.
Or, we have several catholics on here that are quite well spoken. I'd recommend Father K personally or Turb O (something like that, he seems nice, too).
