Hi Lisa,
1. Gluten free option as I am a celiac.
2. I came into a personal relationship with the Lord when I was 21, shortly after I was baptized by immersion. But I had heard the gospel since childhood & believed in God…I just hadn’t come to that personal choice.
3. The missionaries Betty Mitchell & Lois Chandler with the Alliance, my story “Penang Pearl of the Orient” https://teawithjennifer.blog/2018/06/08/penang-pearl-of-the-orient/
Blessings,
Jennifer

Yeah, I was a kid too, but like you, I always felt like God was with me and in me. Even when I was a fool.

I don’t dilly dally over most decisions in life, which isn’t always good. I tend to go my own way then ask God to bless my actions later. Bad order and memory…

Yes, I was baptized in church.

My dad is the one that God has used mostly to shape my spiritual walk. Still not up to his level, but always seeking.

1) As Theresa said, if it’s a restaurant I am familiar with, I tend to choose the same thing every time, though sometimes I like to branch out. If it’s new to me, I try to look at the menu online before going so I can take my time looking around without holding everyone else up.

2) It was, not as part of conversion itself, but as a picture of what went on in our hearts when we believed.

3) Probably the pastor we had the first 14 years we were married. I think I may have mentioned him in a previous answer as well.

1. Quickly, if I am familiar with the restaurant. If it is new, I take a long time to order.
2. Yes.
3. I think a friend I met in 2000, Robynne. She keeps asking tough questions and encouraging me to grow.

My answer to your first 2 questions are just like yours.
My conversion almost 10 years ago when my son’s roommate (in the Seminary) asked him, “Has your mom ever listened to Alex Jones?” After listening to him for quite a few hours, my statement at the beginning of my marriage: ‘I am never going to be Catholic’ DEFINITELY CHANGED! I had already been through RCIA’s so I gave the Priest a call and shortly after that I was confirmed. GLORY TO GOD AND HALLELUIA!!!
