I am Sheril's cousin and I wish I could have been there, because I am so proud of her and Travis! I just wanted to share with you that, as silly as it sounds, the Catholicism for Dummies book isn't too bad for explaining our jargon to others. Check it out at a bookstore, you might find it helpful.

I'm trying to think of how to leave out or explain the jargo while still keeping the flow of the narrative. Like talking to civilians about PCSing and husbands going TDY and accidentally getting dropped out of DEERS, LOL! I can include links to definitions of some of the things, but that might be a lot of clicking away and back and be frustrating. Or I can include a sort of glossary at the end of my post. Or both. Let me try it out and see how it goes. As for the suggestion for a book, I'm sure there are excellent ones out there, but I don't own any that explain Catholicism for the non-Catholic. Maybe one of my readers can chime in?<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1601','Lorri'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1601','Lorri','Sandy - Thank you for the suggestion, you make an excellent point.

I hate to even ask such a thing, but I've taken an interest in the Catholic faith and I'd like to understand what you're saying here. I'm not converting, but I would like to understand what I'm reading on the blogs. Maybe there's a book you could suggest? I'm sorry to leave such a comment, but I wasn't sure I had your correct e-mail.
