I actually come from a similar situation. My Mom is Baptist, my Dad is Catholic. My Dad's family attended a more traditional Catholic church (plus this was over 20 years ago) and his family was more traditional so they were married in the church and my Mom had to take Catholicism classes, and take an oath that she would raise her children Catholic.

We were all baptised in the Catholic church. We never attended mass on a regular basis, except for the two years I attended a private Catholic school.

When my parents divorced, we went to a couple of masses, but eventually stopped. My Mom didn't feel welcome because she was/is not Catholic and didn't believe in any of the teachings or ceremony. I personally didn't feel welcome because I had been taught that divorce is a huge no-no in the Catholic belief.

Since then both my sisters have been saved and baptised in the Baptist church. I have been saved, and now my beliefs are closer to the Baptist beliefs but I haven't been baptised yet. It's just something I'm holding onto I guess.

Kenna's Dad isn't very religious, and neither am I, but if we were to go to church we would find a non denominational or Baptist one. We'd never go to the Catholic mass, regardless of my family. I say get her baptised in both. Why not?
