8 Years ago today I became a Catholic.

8 years ago today I was able to go to a priest and confess my sins and receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time, and it would be the first of many times.

8 years ago today at a simple daily Mass I professed what the above little card says and received the Sacrament of Confirmation for the first and only time.

8 years ago I received Jesus in the Eucharist for the first time, and He has never left me.

May 8 turn into ∞ 

I still believe and profess.

Keep me here in Your Church, O Lord.

Till death, O Lord.

“And now it is the pivotal point. Now is the time to go back to the Church, and the Catholic Church might have been the one waiting on me all this time.“

From my personal journal in 2011, two years before my Confirmation into the Catholic Church.
