He was asking me today if I would be interested in being Lutheran if the churches ever had English services here. I think it stresses him out, me wanting to be Catholic.
He says he’s non denominational really but I have heard him talk about this before.
Ideas?

Whatever is said, say in a kind and loving way. The message is how we say it more often than what we say. So you might say something along the lines of wishing him the very best of what Jesus has to offer. And he offers us his very own body and blood as our food to be with us on our journey thru life. “He who eats my body and drinks my blood lives in me and I in them.” The whole purpose is to be one with Jesus, and this is the perfect way…to follow his own wishes to be with us.
It also helps to leave a few pamphlets and books laying around.
He might also be made aware of a class which teaches what the Catholic church believes. It is free with no obligation.
It would help if you get the Church’s Catholic Catechism. Browse thru the back of the book at it’s index of subjects, and read those that you are interested in. Someday you may find your husband picking it up to find an answer as well.
And get a green scapular, have it blessed, and then put it under the mattress. Say the prayer each day “Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of death.” And trust Mary to keep her promise about this scapular. Which was … that a person would receive the faith, or if they have the faith, it would increase. She gave it to us for that very reason … faith. She wouldn’t lie to us…just trust her and say the prayer each day.
