Hello everybody!

I have not been on in a long time, but on Easter Vigil I was received into the Holy Roman Catholic Church praise God! Please keep me in your prayers and God Bless!
I've been a Catholic since I converted to it about 20 years ago. Welcome to the family. May God bless you.

Thank you both, would it be proper to identify as Roman Catholic as my priest mentioned?
Catholic or "Roman Catholic" are both OK use. "Roman Catholic" is used more informally or on occasions when the Pope is having a dialog with Anglicans. They will only accept dialog on the terms that the Catholic Church be called "Roman Catholic". It drives Anglicans crazy when we just say "I'm Catholic" because at the times when they don't want to consider themselves Protestants they want to believe that they are Catholic. Technically there's nothing wrong with the Church calling herself "Roman Catholic", and that's why the Pope has done this as a way of offering an olive branch for the specific purpose of having a dialog with the Anglicans. But whether the Anglicans like it or not, "Catholic" is the official title of the Church.
