How I Ended Up Catholic!

I've shared my story on other channels but I wanted to share it here as well. Apologies for the voice... i'm a bit sick in this video. Also, trying out a new video structure.

I say it to my Catholic peers all the time. Talk to a convert. The love a lot of converts have for our God's Church is inspirational and humbling. We cradle Catholics can take notes and remind ourselves not to take the faith we have grown up in for granted.

I am a ex Muslim and now I am a catholic 😊

I had kind of a similar experience. I grew up Italian Pentecostal. I was raised with a visceral hatred of Catholicism but I always loved my Italian identity. I started exploring Church history one Christmas when a Lutheran friend of mine invited me to their Christmas service. I was so shocked by how "Catholic" it looked but nevertheless beautiful. So I began researching Church history and was stunned at what I discovered. But because I hated Catholicism I drifted towards Orthodoxy and attended an OCA/Ukranian Orthodox Church for about a year. I loved the people there but I still had nagging doubts and concerns regarding Mary, who was by far the biggest obstacle to overcome emotionally.

But I wanted to stay as far away from Catholicism as possible because it felt a betrayal of my parents and because I didn't want anyone to believe I was interested because of my Italian heritage.

A friend of mine invited me to her Traditional Latin Mass one day and I instantly fell in love. Ultimately I became convinced of the papacy (especially because of the Council of Chalcedon) and was moved to embrace Mary. Then I knew Catholicism was the one true religion. I've never looked back since my confirmation. And I feel completed as an Italian as well. Home where I belong.

There is this joy and inner peace being a Catholic.
I am born a Catholic, raised a Catholic and I will die a Catholic.
I am proudly Catholic

I’m an ex JW, I’m on my way to Catholicism and have been through a very similar journey. I even went as far as to study Biblical Hebrew.

The more I learned how much the demons despise Mary, the more I learned to love her.

Catholic Church is the only Church founded by Jesus! The first Pope was Saint Peter and his remains buried in Basilica in Rome. Proud Catholic here no matter what! GOD Bless You Bro.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

I too am a Jewish Catholic, and I just discovered your channel. I plan to watch as many of your videos as I can!

I'm Jewish, but I didn't know at first either. I grew up Baptist, then went across different denominations and religions to figure out which one was teaching the truth, ended up studying with Black Hebrew Israelites for a year, but they made no sense Biblically, then I was in the modern Messianic Jewish movement for 8-9 years, before having a Marian apparition around 2022, and am now on my journey to Catholicism

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Being Catholic is deep and very difficult. It is rewarding, difficult but it makes a lot of sense once you see what it's like. I thank my parents for introducing me as a youngster.

[jesusnunez]

Welcome home to the Catholic Church. I am Mexican descent and I’ve been a Catholic my entire life and it’s such a blessing to love of Christ and the church he established.❤❤❤❤

[donaldturnbull]

My journey is similar to yours. When I started studying the history of Christianity and the Catholic Church, it was like all the missing pieces of a puzzle fell into place.

[carakerr]

Just found you! I am a cradle Catholic but I left the catholic church after high school. Radically saved in 2013 at age 39 and now 10 years later I am returning to Rome at age 49!! God is good. God bless! I was raised in Westchester, NY.

I used to attack the Catholic church until God lead me to the Catholic church

[JWellsUp]

The Puertorrican ex Protestant minister Fernando Casanova found Catholicism by registering to a Marian Course at the Mayaguez University to look at how he can debunk the Catholic Church.

Little did he know that the closer you are to the Blessed Mother the closer you will be to Jesus Christ.

He left his congregation told them the truth about converting to Catholicism and now is die hard for the Catholic faith.

[shirlymamolo]

It was prophecied that many will convert. To GOD be the glory. Amen

So glad I came across this video! I grew up Catholic and then converted to Judaism prior to getting married. My husband has quite the backstory, and I am praying every day for him to realize the truth in Yeshua. He actually grew up Christian as I did but his mother always told him he was Jewish ( he is, his background) so when he came to the US was into some bad lifestyle choices and then came to meet a group of orthodox Jews who found out he was truly Jewish. So he really acclimated to this lifestyle. That’s why it was so important to him to raise our family Jewish.
After having my son, I went through some period of trying to find G-d and got caught up in some new age practices, which did help at first with meditation, but ultimately was leading me in the wrong direction.
Because Jesus is such a no no in Judaism, I would not look into him too much until it seemed I kept being called to research him and when I brought up his name too much my husband would say “remember we’re Jewish.“ after he noticed, I was mentioning Jesus a lot.
I tried to shut it down, but truly couldn’t and around last year this time I became very enthralled with looking into Jesus‘s life and what led to his crucifixion.
Little by little, I really fell in love with my mind, and with my heart & soul, and knowing the truth in Him.
In the spring and summer of last year, I was drawn to mostly Catholic content, but because I have evangelical protestant friends, I was influenced by what they said about Catholicism, and some other content I had seen about the idol worshiping, Mary, etc. in the Catholic Church.
It’s been a long road the last year, but these last few months I have seen more and more clearly the truth in the Catholic Church . I started to realize in the other sects how much division there was, and how many problems from having everyone interpreting the scripture even the pastors, and saw how true Catholicism is for so many reasons, and especially the Eucharist, which I felt initially, and then being told it was just a symbol. I put it on the back burner, but re-discovering this truth is truly mind blowing. I cannot wait to receive this sacrament again.
I go very easy with trying to evangelize with my husband. He does not know how I feel but I do say things here and there and at this point he is way more open to Jesus one year later I feel like I can talk about him without backlash, but I do tread lightly .
Please pray for the conversion of my whole family. I do pray every day .
I am so relieved to know the truth and trust the Lord will lead my family, and I so that we can all experience and live this truth.

As a Catholic, none practicing, I have to admit. However!! For me, I know the Blessed Mother is with me, always ❤️
