Hi, I just turned 36. I live just outside of Detroit. I am a recovering lapsed Catholic.
I'm very interested in learning more about living an authentic Catholic life. I have a few parishes in my area offering the Latin mass. I like attending these but I need to learn more about what's being said and done.
I work 3rd shift in a gas station. Right now it's all my body can handle. My sinful life after I left the Church has had dire consequences on my body, soul, and mind. I also hurt many people while I was out there. I hate to admit it, but almost all the people I hurt were those who loved me and wanted nothing but the best for me. Please pray for me that I can have the grace to avoid going back to that life.
On a happier note, I've found my mind is significantly more calm this past week. I am eager to find out what it's like to remain in a state of grace and regularly receive the Eucharist. At this point, I don't care if I get married or have kids or make a lot of money. I'm lucky to be alive, I'll be even luckier if I can ever have a living space that I can call my own.
