Heather, St Brigids, Marrickville, NSW: Heather discovered that the journey of faith requires full acceptance.

 

“I found my home. I believe the sureness of the steered course, the firm hands on the rudder of faith, to be essential. Because following Christ is not simply an exercise in self-knowledge and belief. It is giving one's life and soul. I also discovered that, for me, it had to be a case of love it or leave it – embrace all, or none of it. Unlike the "buffet – style" of some churches, where one can pick out all the bits one doesn't like and fill up on all one's favourite stuff, the Catholic Church serves one solid bill of fare. It may not be to everyone's personal taste, but there is no denying its wholesomeness.”
