When the bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Christ at every Catholic Mass.

When I was young, my grandmother used to drag me to church with her every Sunday from when I was a baby until I was ten or eleven. I was raised Methodist. I would be at the church from about 10:30 am to 3pm. My grandmother was on, what I like to refer to as, “The board of something or other” and, after a painfully long church service, she would be in the back room with multiple other people counting money and keeping books. I, on the other hand, would be left in the church to occupy myself from about 1pm to when we would leave. I was absolutely miserable. I distinctly remember one day, taking two paper plates and stapling them together and throwing them for entertainment. I had to keep myself occupied. Because of my extensive and uneventful solitude, I dreaded going to Church. \n\nThat is no way to raise anyone into religion. When politics caused my grandmother to leave the church and take me with her, needless to say, I was ecstatic. She never returned to church, and I grew up with my Sundays free since I was about 10 years old.\n\nAfter a while, i stopped believeing in God. I actually don't think i believed in Him in the first place, i think i was just told so many times that He existed that I just came to accept it. But time passed, and i questioned His existence. I stopped believing, and became an atheist.\n\nI tried to destroy the idea of God for a while to many people. But one day, when holding the ladder for my father who was doing work on the roof of our house, it occured to me, that there must be something after death. I thought that our whole lives are built on memories, and if we cease to exist when we die, then those memories are pointless and did not happen. (it's complex and, years later, i still can't explain this revelation satisfactorily) So i became agnostic.\n\nBut then two years ago, something happened that made me believe the Lord is there. It was a personal experience, i just felt Him. I can't explain it, but i knew then that He was there.\n\nAnd through a series of events, i came to Swedenborgianism, the religion of my father. It is a Christian religion. I love it so much, and am actually in school to become a minister for the church so that i may spread the teachings of the church.

Yes, I attend every Sunday, Lord willing! And, I am Christian, attend An (AME) African Methodist Episcopal Church. I will be on my way there shortly. The doors open at 10A.M. and everyone is welcome.  Have a great day, and God bless

Yes, and I'm so glad I did! I just started attending again recently, and I knew I missed it, but I didn't know just how much until I started going back. It felt so good to be back in God's house worshiping and fellowshiping with all my brothers and sisters.\n\nIt's no wonder that studies have shown that church going people are much more happy than those who do not attend church on a regular basis.

I met the Lord through my older brother...I was going to commit suicide (my brother did not know this) he asked me if I wanted to go, I said I was not dressed, he said he would wait, I could not think of any other excuse, so I went to Church..\n\nI called the Pastor a Jesus Freak and I told him that he was crazy to believe in God and Jesus and the Bible was written by man not God..little did I know that our Lord, had other plans for me..\n\nThe following week I went back to Church to condemn them once more, but before I could say anything, the Pastor asked who would like to be baptized, without even realizing it, my hand went straight up into the air..I was baptized and asked Jesus into my heart that very afternoon on August 28, 1978..\n\nI was immediately delivered from drugs, swearing, and hatred for those that had done me wrong..Our Heavenly Father bestowed down upon me His Holy Spirit, which cleansed my heart from all unrightousness..Our Heavenly Father, who forgave my past sins, placed within my heart His Glorious and wonderful Love, His Joy unspeakable and His Peace that Passeth all Understanding..\n\nI can go unto my Lord in prayer, when satan comes to attack..for Greater is He Who is in me..that he who is in the world.. \n\nMy Faith means EVERYTHING to me..The Lord is my helper and my provider..He will always be there for me..when no one else is...For He will never leave me nor forsake me..Amen\n\nLet this my prayer be, More and More of Thee and less and less of me..Amen \n\nLet His Will be done..not mine...Amen

I am a Catholic Convert - trust me, the experience of receiving the Holy Eucharist in the Catholic Church is the most wonderful thing you will ever experience.  To try to describe it would fall short.\n\nMind you, this is all in a spiritual context.

I once went on a missions trip to Ukraine 2 years ago, and because we had friends there who were part of an organisation, they brought us around and we did things like meeting street children, eating with them, buying food for poor families, visiting elders whose children left them.... and much much more.  It was a most awesome experience, and these types of experiences really humble you and (at least for me) it made me think twice about how content I was. And although I thought that I would be changing others' lives by helping them, it was totally opposite and it was a life-changing experience for me. Let's just say that God works in wonderful ways!

I was 16.  From a non-believing background.  Borderline alcoholism.  Attracted to christians by their love and simple joy.  \nWhen I realized Christ was alive and present in the room where I was, I couldn't resist Him.  I told someone the following day I had been born all over again, and he showed me that the expression was in John's Gospel.  A month later a Christian asked me when I was saved, and I was stunned:  "saved" - what a wonderful word!  That really described it!  So I became a Christian withoutg having been exposed to the two major buzzwords of evangelical Christianity! lol.  That was over 40 years ago.  I have never regretted it.

wow! i am very happy with my church youth group. we have two groups, the young teen and the young adult group. our youth group also has subdivision that consist of and only members that participate in the group, we have a prayer ministry which i am in charge of, we have an evangelizing ministry, we have a charity ministry, and we have our leadership ministry. it is very well organized and i hope that our group keep growing. i rate my youth group a big 9. \n   it would be a nine because we till need to adjust a couple things but other than that we are doing very good. \n  for the community we give retreats, we have open membership to our youth group, any one at any time can join. we also have fun times, like we go out to eat or we go to the movies, but we mostly do activities at church so that people can see us and want to join.

No, I did not, but I do want to go to Church.  The problem I have is that I have a disabled child and two other children.  We did go once and it was awful because we spent the whole time trying to keep our child quiet.  The other two boys were OK and could go off to special groups for the children.  It was quite a stressful experience, so now I try to pray at home.  A pity really, because I wanted my children to grow up knowing all about Church and the meaning of Christmas and Easter.

i dont go to church often (i havent been in a while) but for the past few times i did go the preacher always seemed like he was speaking to me...\n\ni love the music and a couple of times i have even cried for no reason (not like boo hoo crying just like a couple of tears streamed down my face)...and no it wasnt because i felt guilty about anything (because i also believe that God is everywhere you seek him...not just in church)...my fiancee says that it was the holy spirit...

I went on a mission trip to Mexico recently, and while I was there we went to a Mexican church. It was AWSOME! We didn't understand everything they said, but we knew that we were worshiping the same God. It was really cool.\n\nThey did some stuff differently but when they went to praise God we could feel His presence. We knew we were with fellow Christians and it was awsome.
