I have been going back to church after a long absence because La Mapu, my older daughter has expressed an interest in joining the Catholic community, and my own relationship as a Catholic mixed with spritulism and afro-Latino Caribbean religious practices is so complicated. <BR/><BR/>So again thank you for this.
