I would suggest listing the parish where you were received into the church.Hi! I am registering my family at our parish. They have this online thing. Anyway. One of the sections they want to know our Church(es) of Baptism. Well, we are both converts, do they really want to know the protestant churches we were baptized in? Help, please!
I agree with the above as you gave that information to the parish when you became Catholic. I know I did as this was required and took awhile for me to get. (some mix-up with records at my protestant church I was baptized)
I’ve found lots of good answers here at CAF. But, how can anyone here know what your parish wants? Call them and ask them if this question applies to you and if it does how they’d prefer you to answer it.
Oh I don’t know, something about the Church being universal gave me the crazy idea that others on here would know.
These things you ask about aren’t universal. Parishes will have there own procedures. For example, registering at a parish is AFAIK an North American practice. We don’t register at parishes in the UK. To know what your parish wants: you’ll need to ask them. I believe the other two you mention were speculating. How can they know your parish’s administrative procedures?
Use where you were received into the Church in your RCIA program. If the new parish has any questions the Church of reception will have all the records. We did the same when we moved and registered in our current parish.Hi! I am registering my family at our parish. They have this online thing. Anyway.
