Question for Catholic Converts

[BaLou]

What was the primary reason for you to turn to the catholic faith? I have been a catholic for almost two years. Back in 1999 I was reading about church history which led me to read about catholicism. The more I studied, the more I learn of the presence of the body and in blood in the Eucharist. I was then hooked, I then knew that I had to take communion in a catholic church. It is such a privledge to do this. I thank God every Sunday for me to take part in the Eucharist.

God Bless,
BaLou

I am technically a revert, but after many years away from the Church (I would say my whole life actually) I returned to Catholicism under similar circumstances: I found out about the body and blood of Christ being truely the Blessed Sacrament.

Basically, someone showed me John 6:50+ and I didn't know that that was even in the bible! 16 years of being a Catholic without knowing that!

I though we were basing everything on "do this in memory of me". When I learnt about John 6 I was amazed and everything fell into place from there.

Apart from what's in my profile? Well.... the truth is a very desirable thing.

The Bible. I was convinced in faith and works, the establishment of a Church with authority and protection from error, confession of sins, and the Eucharist being real, all from the Gospel.
