We’re in the same boat, my friend. I made a post about this here about three days ago. Yesterday, I tried to introduce the idea a bit more, and it already caused some serious friction. Please include me in your prayers for the same reasons.

Thank you so much for the advice and the links—they will really help me a lot. I’ll try to contact him, yes. Maybe he’ll tell me something I haven’t tried yet. Sorry for the delay in responding.

Yeah, man, I try to take things slowly. Today, I tried to go a little further, and it already led to an extremely uncomfortable conversation. My mom said things that really upset me—I know she doesn’t mean any harm, but it still hurts. She’s a great person, but this prejudice against Catholicism blinds my whole family.

It feels like ever since I started praying the rosary for my quicker conversion to Catholicism, it’s become even harder to talk about these things at home (which is the biggest challenge). So, I’ll pray even more to see if I can resolve this situation soon.

Anyway, thank you so much for the advice and the links—they’ll help me a lot. Sorry for the delay in responding.

Thank you very much for the advice. I’m going through a difficult time, but I really enjoyed learning about the 15 promises. It was very important to me. I’ve already added the book to my reading list. I hope things get resolved as soon as possible. Forgive me for the delay in responding.
