Jeremy,

Welcome to the Catholic Church! It may have seemed that there were only 30 there, but there were many more heavenly witnesses, the whole host of heaven and all the departed saints throughout the ages, all greatly rejoicing. May the light of Christ who is Love and Truth shine through you even more brightly, through the charism of the Spirit you received in the sacrament of confirmation. And may you find the peace and rest of being in full communion with holy Mother Church, and the true communion of all the saints.

In the peace of Christ,

- Bryan

Jeremy,

I would welcome you to the Catholic Church, but you beat me there somehow. Now go and put those special graces received from Confirmation to work!

Peace in Christ,
Tom

Thanks Bryan and C2C folk. I was received into the Church this past Sunday! We only had about 30 people at Mass because of the blizzard, but it was great. The work of C2C certainly helped to speed things up for me. Thank you all for the great work. Here’s a link to The Catholic Review which mentions my confirmation. I can’t even begin to tell you how loving the community at St. Andrew’s has been to our family during this transition.

Thank you all. Thanks for the book Marshall! Peace in Christ, Jeremy
