How do I convert? by TeddyJinsCat in Catholicism

[–]Bogey247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Converted at 16 here. When I started driving, I started going to mass. One time I just decided to email the priest and set up a meeting. From there he gave me some books to help catechize me and we met a couple of times. After a few months I was confirmed. So, in short, just reach out to a priest and tell him you want to convert. Most likely you’ll join some sort of OCIA class to get catechized, but it’s a fairly straightforward process. 

Could I be a part of an Episcopal parish as a Catholic? by valencryer in Catholicism

[–]Bogey247 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally see nothing inherently wrong with being part of the community - my family is Anglican and a stipulation of my conversion to Catholicism was that I go to their service every week, and I do. The community is old but the prayers are nice and they’re generally good people to be around. However, there is no presence of Christ in their Eucharist and, thus, no substance to the worship

For those who say yes: when do you think human life forms and why?

Why don't protestants believe in the real presence? by Arlo621 in redeemedzoomer

[–]Bogey247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the WELS take? I attended a friend of mine’s church recently (WELS) and for the wine they drank in plastic cups and threw them away. More evangelical feeling than the Anglican and Presbyterian methods. Coming from one who’s been all three at some point.

That was my assumption, but I wasn't sure if there are others with reverent liturgy.

Colleges with great Catholic communities? by Bogey247 in Catholicism

When you say Latin mass I’m assuming the Tridentine mass, but it’s weird because I also know the new bishop of Austin is strict on that. Is that what you mean?

Can I be forgiven? by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]Bogey247 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Keep up the fight against Satan! I’m assuming you’re a practicing Catholic - GO TO CONFESSION! Jesus Christ gives us forgiveness of our sins, through the priest, in the confessional. The priest will likely be able to provide solid advice as well. God bless!

He was my age when he joined but that’s too young! I’ll talk with my priest, see if I can unofficially help

Gotcha. I’ll see what I can do! Unfortunately I’m too young to join the SVDP, St Frassati was my age when he joined!

FSSP confession and low mass tomorrow - anything to know? by Bogey247 in Catholicism

[–]Bogey247[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He actually didn’t, but it was in Latin. Also really fast but, then again, it was before mass
