How considerate of you to keep us informed.
I’m always full of Catholic guilt?.

It's good to know you have found a church where you feel comfortable and that the guilt you were feeling has gonesmile.

A few moths ago I posted a thread about struggling with my Catholic faith and the feelings of guilt in considering walking away. Here is an update for those of you who gave such kind and supportive advice. Well I took the plunge and started going to my local Anglican church and could not be happier. Everyone has made me so welcome and there is no pressure to attend services every Sunday. It is a very community orientated Parish with something for everyone including coffee mornings, Mum and toddler groups, Youth projects and a lunch club. The Vicar is lovely and understands my journey from Catholicism and is happy to chat to me anytime. It is still early days but my guilt has subsided and I am really enjoying being part of this beautiful church and worshiping God here.
