  I'm non Catholic. I got married to Catholic. After a year and half of marriage. I decided to become Catholic. I will be baptised in April next year. My first Sunday Mass was tears with happiness.

  I married a non-Catholic thankfully he was a strong Christian. I am a devout cradle Catholic. When I met my husband I told him specifically that I hope your in this for the long haul...I want my children raised Catholic and we can never get divorced (I said it half jokingly sorta :)). He always attended Catholic mass and was very supportive of my faith. Our kids have been raised Catholic as I hoped. Fast forward 14 years later, he got confirmed as a Catholic last year. He came to this decision on his own. His reason for this decision: our oldest got confirmed this year and he felt compelled to do it and to be an example for our children. I thank the Lord for working through my husband because he is a wonderful Catholic.

  I contacted my priest yesterday. He replied to me at 9 this morning and told me he’s really happy I’m interested in the Catholic faith and would like me to call him after Easter vigil to set up a meeting. I’m really looking forward to this meeting with great anticipation. This is the best decision I ever made

  My husband was agnostic and was "ok" with me being Catholic. 11 years later he is the one that iniates prayers and sometimes I think he has more faith in God than I have.

  My mom is catholic and my dad was RAISED Pentecostal. However, a few years into the marriage, my dad realized that he wants to be catholic but he wanted to wait. Now, he wants my brother and I (23 and 18) to be his sponsors for becoming catholic. I’m so excited about it.

  I was a non Christian in love with a Catholic. Thanks to him, I found my faith in Jesus so strong that I got baptized in the church that came to my head first. Now after 8 years of our marriage, finally I am a strong Catholic preparing to become a Catechist soon... Hallelujah

  I was a Protestant and I married a Catholic. After 5 years I decided to become Catholic and went through RCIA. Wish I would’ve done it before we got married.

  My mom is Catholic and she married my dad when he was Jewish. My dad decided to become Catholic after they were married for a year. ❤

  I&apos;m a Hindu born into a super conservative family, but I practice faith secretly and I&apos;m happy that I found Christ. It&apos;s a beautiful feeling when you pray and I can surely say, my life has changed after I believed in Christ.<br>Amen.

  Been married twenty years. I often thank God that I married a Catholic girl. As a Protestant, I believe that was God’s plan to bring me into the one true faith. <br><br>Like many Protestants, I made the biggest mistake: I set out to convert my wife by proving Catholic doctrine wrong. And in-turn, I became Catholic. &nbsp;Go figure. Can’t deny truth and the power of the Holy Spirit. <br><br>God bless

  I married a non practicing protestant. It was hard to go to Mass because “I was always messing up the family programs”. I prayed a lot for him, and for us. And in the hardness of time, the Holy Spirit illuminated me. We moved far away with our kids, and after 1 year abroad, he started paying attention to the Gospel, also thanks to the pandemic. Last year on May 2021 he was baptized, had his first communion and confirmation. 🙏🏻 So it was worth going through this path
