Hi due to privacy issues I have to keep my name private. Im currently converting to catholicism.
I am now 19 by the way as I wrote this last year
converted 4.3.2016. Started praying the rosary. On 4.4.2016 I converted on divine Mercy Sunday. Saint Faustina is the patron saint of my conversion, my confirmation saint is private for now, I have not been confirmed. It was the divine Mercy chaplet that stopped a suicide and depressive mood. I took medicine it helped But I still felt the same every day. The divine Mercy chaplet was like a snap. On 6.6.2016 My mother found out I was Catholic, she is against it. I was 17 at my conversion. I am 18 now. I have better contact with my priest though. I am now discerning, I have decided to keep this private, I will not say right now what convent I want to enter but I feel God is calling me closer every day. What caused me to convert is private, one the healing of depression. Two answers. Over time I had questions and the Catholic Church is so beautiful, I researched Orthodox, Anglican. Something that was holding me back from the Catholic Church was purgatory, I understood in time. I was met with a lot of schism, Maria divine mercy still some conspiracy theories. I was protestant of different denominations. I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness I was never baptized as one God bless every one!
