Different Religion

One thing that a lot of people don't know about me is that I am catholic. I was baptized,took communion and was confirmed Catholic. My family is mixed, my dad and I are catholic and my mom and my brother are Lutheran.

When people find out that I am Catholic,they ask why I have gone to a Lutheran school since i was in second grade. They ask why I didn't go to a Catholic school,and why am I still in a Lutheran school. They also ask why I am the one that is Catholic.

When people find out they ask me if there is anything really that different. A lot of times there isn't that much different between Catholics and Lutherans. As Catholic's we believe that Mary has an important role in our faith,and Lutherans she is important,but not as important.

What I want people to understand is that you can go to a school that is a different domination than what you are. You just have to be ready to answer questions that people ask you. Like why did you choose here,what is so different than what we believe. I have enjoyed going to a private school just to growth in my faith,even if the schools that I have gone to are not the domination that I am.
