EWTN

I had all but forgotten EWTN until some Catholic friends of mine suggested I watch The Journey Home.

Oh, yes, good old EWTN!  A dusty memory came to mind when they reminded me of the channel.  As an AG-Protestant youth, I remember stopping at EWTN from time to time in my channel surfing and watching it curiously.  Mostly, I remember a nun talking.  That's about it.  But, I remember something in me wanted to understand the channel, the program.  Wanted to be a part of it, in the "clique" so to speak, of those who watch it and discuss it.

It's just another link in the chain of my history.  Was I always meant to be Catholic?

I never felt at home in the Protestant churches.
I wished I could have gone to Catholic school.
I envied my older brother who got to take first communion and confirmation before my parents left the Church.
I never believed the things I was told about the Catholic church, even though I accepted them from my authorities.  I always felt some knowledge or understanding was missing.

At this point I am open to the possibility that God may be calling me "home to Rome."  So, I leave it to Him in prayer.

At this point I have also prayed to God that He would have to bring my husband home to Rome, too.  We were at one accord when we left the AG church for the Baptist church.  My husband and children love the Baptist church (I do, too).  Hubby is not at all fond of the Catholic church (too many bad memories).  I cannot divide my family over this.
