“I wish to convert to the traditional Catholic faith from Protestantism and hope you can help me”

Dear MHFM,

I have been looking at your material for a while now and am definitely convinced. I wish to convert to the traditional Catholic faith from Protestantism and hope you can help me. Since I am leaving Protestantism, I am one of "those who aren't sure whether they have been baptised".

I have bought a penny catechism like the one you offer on your website, but because I live in the UK I didn't buy it from your store directly. I have read it and believe all its contents... I pray the Rosary...

I believe that there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church, that baptism is absolutely necessary for salvation, that John XXIII onwards are antipopes, etc. I have read the profession of faith for converts from the Council of Trent, and would be able to make this profession in truth…

I do not know who would be able to perform a conditional baptism for me. My father is in a similar situation to me, and wants to convert as well, but he is not entirely convinced and is considering his options. He would be willing to perform a conditional baptism for me, but I think it might be better to find someone who is already a traditional Catholic. I live in Surrey, UK, but will be living in Southampton for university shortly. Perhaps you could put me in contact with someone near either of these areas. I have read your "where to receive sacraments" file…. Please help…

Thanks in advance,
Darren O'Neill
