Ex-Mormons Why Did You Leave the Church II

[twopekinguys]

I know that when I graduate in December and move back to Pittsburgh I will be attending RCIA and going to mass with the intention of converting. I also know that when I do leave the LDS church, my parents will think a few things. One of those is that I apostatized and want to sin. Then I hope they next thing they think of would be going back to Catholicism. My parents are converts. However, my dad is a bishop and my mom is a counselor in the relief society, so i doubt their hearts will change quickly.

Anyways, the main reason why I’m deciding to leave the LDS church is because Christ isn’t there. In meetings, in sacrament, in life, I don’t feel His presence while being in the LDS Church. I went to mass for the first time a few years ago while on my mission to Ireland. I literally felt Christ there and knew, there was something special about the Catholic Church. I can’t feel Christ in Anything that is LDS and for that, I will be leaving upon graduation and seeking Him in the Catholic Church.

Just keep listening and discerning where Our Lord wants you to be, where you will find Him. He will lead you…

My family joined the LDS church when they first came to the USA. They were really into it for the first few years but we left when I was in first grade because my mother didnt agree with their teachings.
The image below is what made have doubts about the LDS a few years after we left . I was 10 and I didn’t agree with the LDS interptention of it.

I completely understand how you feel about the lack of Christs presence in the LDS sacrament meetings. I tried to feel it for years & until I looked to the Catholic Church I really feel his love for us there. May God bless you on your spiritual Journey
