Dear Maureen —
Sure!
The short answer: Go to Confession
and welcome back!
This, of course, assumes there are
no other impediments. Sometimes there
are divorce and remarriage issues
etc., but it doesn't sound like that's
the case. Go talk to a priest and
he'll be able to tell you what to
do. If he doesn't, because of complicating
circumstances, he'll know who to
ask.
One last point. It's great that you
want to come back, but you should
also make an attempt to learn about
the faith. You left it pretty easily.
It sounds like you didn't know what
you leaving.
I'd recommend enrolling in an RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for
Adults) program. You don't technically
need it to resume the sacramental
life; you could probably do that
by simply going to Confession.
What you could do is enter the program
as an observer to learn
about the faith and the Church you
left.
