I'm catholic but an Alter boy for an Anglican church. Is that ok?

Question

I'm Catholic but I thought i was anglican so I started going to an Anglican church then I found out that I'm Catholic but I'm an alter boy for my church what should I do?

Answer 1

I'm a bit confused. How does a person not understand what religion he or she belongs to? You "found out" that you're Catholic? Anyway, I can only assume that you haven't undergone Confirmation yet (in which case, there would be no doubt as to your religious preference). It also comes down to a matter of which church you personally prefer. This is a decision that you must make for yourself. It sounds as if you're already active as an altar server in the Anglican Church. If you wish to remain one, that's fine. When the time comes for your Confirmation, just get confirmed into the Anglican Church. It doesn't matter what you're "supposed" to be, or what you were previously. Only you can decide upon your religion. If you wish to be a Catholic, then make arrangements to get confirmed as a Catholic (if you are of age to do so). In the meanwhile, I don't think there's anything wrong with continuing your duties in the Anglican Church. This is really something that you should discuss with a priest, though. Try talking to the priest at the Anglican Church where you serve.

Answer 2

Beware the priests.

Answer 3

It's definitely safer.

Answer 4

It may be a bit unusual, but I can't see either communion breaking out in a cold sweat over it.
