And it is so wonderful that you converted together- we did it as a family (mom, dad, 5 kids) when I was twelve- it is such a blessing when the couple does it together What a blessing!

As the mother of a big family, I also am victim of wrong assumptions and rude comments. Hold your head high knowing that you are doing God's Will and that you are suffering persecutions on His behalf. It is a valuable lesson that you teach in instructing others of the truth. I once made a mistake when commenting to a mom of two and she corrected me by sharing that she desired more, but God had other plans. Her courage and honesty forced me to think deeper and realize that I could not "judge a book by its cover." Thank you. Elizabeth,

They got married and swore that within a year they would discover the meaning to life or commit suicide together...a year later they had both converted to orthodox Catholicism. They ended up committing themselves to a Josephine marriage and left behind a beautiful collection of philosophy and poetry. So you're part of a grand tradition! Congratulations.
