Dan, what led you to your current situation of affiliating yourself with both Catholic and Methodist churches? Presuming you have migrated away from Catholic towards Methodist, why not go "all the way"? What do the Methodists think about your continuing to consider yourself Catholic, particularly if you are an elder there as John says? _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
