Hey, everyone. I'm Amanda. I've been looking for a good traditional Catholic Web site, and I think this one might be it. I look forward to meeting you and seeing you on the boards. God bless!

Hello everyone: my name is Dana. Converted in 2008 after three years of personal education. I attend a beauitful Catholic Church in alabama. I've attended very few traditional masses because of where I live... It's approximately over an hour drive one way to a church that has traditional mass. However I heard that a monastery in the area came in communion with our bishop and has TM.  The husband attends mass with us, my children are being raised catholic of course. Please pray for my husabnd's conversion.

Anyway, I homeschool my three children.  

If anyone would be willing to converse with me privately about the monasary in the area, I would appreciate it. I do not want to publicly post my location.

Blessings!

Welcome Dana/Memorare, I believe you will have to wait a week in order to send and receive private messages, so be patient. I don't live anywhere near you so I wouldn't know anything about the monastery. I just wanted to warn you about the week's wait.

God bless you and all your loved ones. Great that you are homeschooling.

God bless! I just read the rule, no problem at all.  Thanks for the welcome! My Children attended our parish school and we weren't happy there, so we came back home. I am truly blessed in being able to school them and to have a large community of homeschooling catholics for support. We luckily attend a very respectful parish. But I would like to introduce my children to traditional as well.

I am reading some of the subforums and I'm feeling "at home" with the content of them. I look forward to conversing and learning here.

Welcome flameburns623,
Here's  :pray:ing for you!

LAETARE SUNDAY A.D. 2014

Hi everyone, I'm just a new convert who can't justify modernism. My conversion turned my life around completely and I want authenticity.

Please bear with me if I ask any newbie type questions, I'm willing to learn from others and consider what I'm being told. I'm glad to be here, and hope I have something to offer.

Thanks :)

-John

Welcome aboard Johnb104, you will find Catholicism, Traditional Catholicism is THE ONLY WAY to fight the diabolical heresy of Modernism.

I noticed you have a devotion to the Holy Souls, our family does too.  They are great to pray to, as they have come to our assistance many, many times.  Also, they are all ETERNALLY GRATEFUL for your prayers, as those prayers help them escape Purgatory and enter into Heaven!  Talk about friends in high places!

Greetings all,

I was born and raised Catholic, unfortunately NO though. Converted to tradition shortly after I was married and my dear wife followed me whole hearted. We have 11 children and 1 one the way. About me;

Husband and father by vocation.
High school drop-out by education.
Concrete plant mechanic for a living.
Rifle marksmanship instructor as a hobby.
Prepper by inclination.

God bless,
JoeZ

Hello JoeZ, we are trailing behind by 2 children, looking forward to your postings!

Hello. Dave here. Live in AZ. Too hot for me. Wanted to find a place where I can some questions answered.

Hi dmg from AZ, the forum can get pretty heated up like AZ, enjoy!

Hello, I was looking for a good forum to interact with other traditional Catholics, and apparently I found the right place.

I used to be a person who didn't have a care about religion. I don't remember exactly when, but through the graces of God I found the true Catholic Church and her beautiful sacrifice of the mass.

Anyway, I hope to learn more and continue to deepen my faith.

Hi Providence! "Seek and ye shall find ...",  God will always answer, never cease seeking, and He will bring you to home to Him.  Great to have you on the forum!

A beautiful name, from a 7th Century Saint.  (Well it actually derives from St. Amandus. I actually have a son born on the feastday of a great female saint and we ended up naming him a male version of it, she was a great teacher and he definitely has excellent traits for teaching)

Hello Dana, we will keep praying for your husband's conversion.  St. Joseph is a most excellent patron for that, we have had many prayers realized through his patronage, especially after we formally made him the Patron of our home.  Also, the children, their prayers are most precious to Our Lord.  Teach them to pray sincerely and devoutly for their father.

Hello.

New here. 54 year old grandfather of two, veteran and college graduate.

Have been attending St. Francis de Sales since my return to the Church in 2008/2009.

I fell into inactivity in the early 1980's, after being raised in a very conservative/still-Latin-using parish, and then--when I joined the Army--seeing the true impact of VII: it disillusioned and alienated me, and after dabbling with Protestantism and then drifting into nothingness, I gradually found my way back 'home'.

At the time of my return I was full of hope that Pope Benedict XVI would nudge the Church closer to Tradition. I figured it might take two or three Pontificates, but I had hoped to truly see a 'reform of the Reform' which would bring us back to noble Tradition.

Pope Francis has proven a disappointment and I am quite honestly spending a year in prayer and reflection on the whole situation. I am now attending the local SSPX chapel and doing tons of reading on the issues. An SSPV congregation apparently also meets in the area so that is one direction I have cast my gaze.

Please do keep me in your prayers!

Hello flameburns63!  Hope you find a Resistance Mission too, the SSPX-MC priests are such a blessing!  Welcome aboard!

Hello everyone,
I'm new here. 27y single female traditionalist in the cold Northern Europe. I've always been a Catholic but found my way to Tradition just recently (last autumn) and wonder why it took me so long!

Hello Apollonia77!  Hoping to hear a lot from you on the forum, it's wonderful that so many Catholics from all over the world are on CathInfo!  BTW - she's one of our favorite Saints.

Pax Christi!

Hi, everyone.  My first post probably came across the wrong way: http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=31001&min=0&num=5

I was angry after reading that docuмent, and my post was supposed to be sarcastic but it came across to many as being uncharitable.  I apologize for that.

I'm 40 years old and I've been a Catholic for 20 years.  I was blissfully unaware of all of the problems in the post-conciliar church until Francis stepped out onto the loggia of St. Peter's last March.  My spiritual life has been in a tailspin ever since.  I was active in Opus Dei, but I have since terminated my relationship with them.  I'm probably headed for the R&R camp.  The nearest SSPX chapel is 100 miles away, and I'm not quite ready to take that step yet, but the day is coming.  I'm not a sede, but I have great respect for the sedevacantist position and I won't argue that their conclusion is wrong.  They may very well be right, but I'm too spiritually exhausted to go that far at this point in time.

I don't think I'll post much, but I look forward to reading the thoughts of like-minded individuals in this forum.  Knowing I'm not alone helps me get through the day.

Hi there. I'm receiving some sort of registration error. After pasting the link from my email it says it wasn't registered properly and to please contact an admin, but I'm not sure how. I'll continue looking about, but if somebody sees this could send the word, it would be much appreciated.

edit:

Oh btw, I'm happy to be here. I am a 25 year old convert to Catholicism, roughly four years ago. My family is evangelical, and not the welcoming sort. I was always attached to Catholicism, ever since a family friend invited us to Easter Mass as children.

Last Sunday was my first time at a traditional Latin Mass at an FSSP parish. I've since decided not to return to the NO unless I absolutely must. Praying there felt like coming home, and it was beautiful to see so many people taking the faith seriously. St. Paul says race to the finish with the discipline of an athlete right. :P

Obviously, everything is quite new to me. I've purchased a missal from Baronius Press in the meantime, and looking to get involved with the young adult group there, and of course support the parish in any way possible.

I have never experienced anything like the Latin Mass before, or the community there. Deo Gratias!

Hi Oatmeal,

Welcome to CI.

You may be the right person for the job, having experience with Opus Dei. I started a thread about Opus Dei and what we can do to get family/friends out of it, but it seems no one here is able/willing to help out. Have a look if you are willing :

Even if you don't reply, it's still nice knowing it is possible to get out of Opus Dei. Well done !
