My name is Robert LaFleur, I am 60 years old. I became a Catholic in 1986. By that statement you can conclude that I am not a “cradle Catholic”. I was raised in a oneness faith. Some of you know them as Pentecostals. In 1986, I became a Catholic. However at that time, I will admit now, it was not due to the fact I had a revelation about the Catholic faith. My reasoning at that time was because that’s what my new wife wanted. I went to Mass with her for a while but my heart wasn't in it. I was not ready for the commitment required to come to God. So I went many years following, that I never set foot in a church and did my best to not even think about God.
In 2014 a life changing event happened in my life. I lost a son in March of that year. After that (not immediately) is when my true conversion took place. My full conversion story is a story in itself which will be told at a later time.
I am not a professional writer. I write what God puts on my heart to write. I have a blog site if you wish to read some of my writing.
