Interview Time

     I have started my interviews and have come up with a few beliefs that have been misinterpreted. Now, I am asking for your help. If you have a few minutes it would be very helpful if you could answer a these questions in the comment section or email me.

For Catholics:
1) What are some beliefs of our faith that you did not always understand or know about?
2) What do you think are some beliefs that are misunderstood by non-Catholics or other Catholics?

For Non-Catholics:
1) What key things do you know about the Catholic faith?
2) What beliefs seem odd to you?

Step One

I am now beginning to work on my Girl Scout Gold Award. This is the highest award that I can earn and is recieved by completing a large-scale service project.

For my Gold Award, I will be creating a video highlighting the basic beliefs of the Catholic Church and the most misinterpreted beliefs. I have noticed that many people dislike the Catholic faith because they do not fully understand the religion. This video will help anyone who is misinformed about the Catholic Church. I want to decrease the amount of animosity towards and misinterpretation of the Catholic Church.

My first step is to figure out which beliefs are the most misunderstood. To do that, I will be interviewing both non-Catholics about their basic knowledge of the Catholic Faith, and Catholics about which beliefs they believe are misinterpreted by others.
