Last night I was received into the Catholic church and it was a wonderfully moving and uplifting service. So many people coming forward to welcome me and received lots of hugs. One member of the congregation gave me a book about the Prodigal Son and I have to say it really feels as if I have come home.

congratulations.
Thank you all to everyone
It sounds like a memorable exerience for you sunseeker. Glad it went well.
Congratulations Sunseeker - I added my congratulations on the thread started yesterday then realised this one was more up to date! 
I was at all our Easter Triduum liturgies and (as always) found it a wonderful experience and I am a cradle Catholic!
I was privileged to read at our Easter Sunday morning Mass this morning. As expected, one of the intercessions was for all those received into the Church this Easter so a prayer for you went from my heart.
Welcome and blessings from me too!
Welcome Sunseeker, I too was thinking of you last night. It sounds as if you have been received into a truly loving community of people as well.

Congratulations sunseeker
Wishing you lots of happiness in your new 'family'
