Im catholic converting to Greek Orthodox. Im not very religious so I'm okay with it, to raise our childen GO. Its kind of a hard thing to do changing religons ...understanding it. We both want our children to have one religon. The GO is also very into their culture and community .
Also its a dream for his Uncle (who is a Greek Orthodox Priest) to marry us.

FH and I both grew up in Roman Catholic families. I've since become a buddhist and FH is agnostic, so there won't be any religous involvement in our wedding....

Re: RELIGON-CONVERTING
My fh is catholic. I was not brought up anything b/c my mom was catholic and dad was Jewish, they decided to let me choose when I was old enough. My dad wasnt a prracticing jew so I grew up in a catholic family but was never baptised. Well now fh and I both want to get married in a catholic church and I think it is the best idea for me to fully become catholic so I am taking classes at our church once a week for 3 months and I will receive all 3 sacraments on the Saturday before Easter. We are really excited, and it has brought fh and I closer in a lot of ways, it was the best thing I could have ever done. P.S. fh's mom is soooo excited, she cries every time we talk about it.

i am christian orthodox which is what greek orthodox is, and fh is catholic, and i didnt have to convert. But i see you have other reasons for doing it.

Girls who are converting:
i think that is amazing! Congrats to you ladies!![]()
what a wonderful gift to give to your soon to be husbands!
FH and I are both Catholic - he does not practice though and I think religion is very important. He supports me raising our children Catholic but insists he won't be a part of it. . .
Anyway, I think its great that you girls are giving your time and energy and converting. . . I dont know if I would be able to do that - I can be very lazy sometimes!

well you might have to if you are getting married in a greek church...see catholics allow other religions to come in and things like that, well christian orthodox is different.
Hmmm yeah i haven't thought about any of that yet, well i told fh we'll see. Thing is i believe in god, but i don't believe in organized religion. The history of the church, how it was started, how priests were picked and all that. So for me its not a concern, we are all gods children and don't think there is a preference by what religion you are, as long as you believe then that is what matters. Anyways i wont get into all this haahahha.

The mother of the boy (boy meaning he was 20)

THAT i wouldnt be able to do!

no way - that was so upsetting. and that little witch didnt understand why his mom was upset?!?!?!
that was a disgrace - not judging anyone's religion . . but i dont know how that boy could do that to his mother.

they say that GO and catholic are very similar. I know a couple who was catholic and GO and he didn't convert and they let them get married in the GO church. And they are raising there children GO.
