But I knew they would have to come to terms with my <EM>reason</EM> (or one of the most important ones) for converting to the Catholic Church: because I love Jesus.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to welcome Him not only "into my heart" as my Lord and Savior in good evangelical fashion, but also as He commanded in John 6. I wanted to welcome Him into my "tummy" and heart -- His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.<BR/><BR/>They may not "get" the Sacraments, but they sure get loving Jesus. <BR/><BR/>And these days, as Gil Bailie says, we need to "protect one another's (Christian) wells." I think this is why many evangelicals are starting to look to the Holy Father: they sense we need a unity to be able to confront-in-love our secularist and terrorist advesaries.
