Sharon Ripley had an experience of a variety of forms of Christianity growing up, and even went to Catholic schools, but it wasn’t until her 40’s, when she felt that her life was missing something, that she decided to get serious about finding a church home.
Sharon immediately found a nurturing Christian community in the A.M.E. Church that formed her in intercessory prayer and a theology of the Holy Spirit, and she even served in children’s ministry.
However, in her continuing ministry formation, her study of the New Testament, especially John’s Gospel, began to lead her more and more to the conviction that Jesus truly was calling her to receive him in a unique way in Holy Communion in the Catholic Church.
