Raised Catholic, left the faith in my early twenties, about 30 years ago.
 
born and raised in a very catholic environment, but I’ve left the church to become LDS, then went to a Baptist church, then went to a Lutheran church. Yeah I’m not the most religiously stable person. 😄
 
Well, it’s good to have your hear. The door back to the Catholic Church is always open. Let us know here in the forum if you have questions, complaints, and / or things you want to discuss about Catholicism. 🙂
 
Thanks for sharing that! Very encouraging reminder of the reality of God’s Grace breaking into our lives in subtle and surprising ways.

I was a CRADLE Latin Rite Catholic but a CONVERT to the Maronite Rite of Catholicism as of March 17th, 2018!
 
I’m a Cradle Catholic. I was baptized as an infant. I was an altar boy when I was very young. When I was about 12 my mother left the Catholic Church and forced my sister and myself to attend a church called Springs of life. It was absolutely terrible, I would always stay with my Grandparents or my great Grandparents on the weekends so I could go to mass with them. Unfortunately my mothers breaking away from the church stopped me from having my conformation at the age of reason. Although last year I finally was confirmed and it felt so good. 😊
 
I’m a convert & a revert. Converted in 1999- my marriage ended 7 months later. I fell away from the church shortly after-I stayed away for 17 years. I came back to the sacraments January 2018. I will never leave again. My faith is the most important thing in my life. It’s been a hard road to walk back but I keep pressing on!

Came back several years ago, but may leave again…still too angry at God for a host of reasons…
 
By allowing yourself to remain angry, you are listening to Satan not Jesus. Jesus says to forgive seven times seventy. That is, without ceasing.
 
Have you pondered with the Western Rite Orthodox or Roman Catholic Ordinariates?
 
Have pondered, am currently pondering. I still have a bunch of reading and discussing to do on a number of contested issues before making that decision, plus considerations for maintaining domestic tranquility with my wife, who grew up Presbyterian and is no great fan of Catholicism.
