Anonymous submission (female), St Chad’s Cathedral parish

This individual kindly completed a short, optional questionnaire designed to find out more about why people have decided to join the Catholic Church. She will be fully welcomed into the Catholic Church this Easter, 2026.

Please tell us a little about what drew you towards wanting to become a Catholic.

I felt an instant sense of peace the moment I stepped into a Catholic Church. As soon as I heard the beautiful hymn, tears began to fall. It was such a powerful and unexplainable feeling that I simply couldn’t ignore.

Please tell us something you have learned during your period of formation to become a Catholic.

Gratitude. Trust in God.
 
Please tell us something you are looking forward to, following your reception into the Catholic Church.

Continue to grow in faith and learn the Bible.
