Ohio parishioners urge Holmes to return to Catholicism
Parishioners at Katie Holmes' old church in her native Toledo, Ohio are begging the actress to baptise her newborn baby in a proper Catholic church.
The 'Batman forever' star has become a devout Scientologist since meeting and falling in love with Tom Cruise and former family friends fear she'll turn her back on her religious roots and opt to bring up her child under the doctrines of her new faith.
But parishioners at Christ The King in Toledo are urging Holmes to think of her parents, see sense and return to her hometown to baptise baby Suri, who was born on Tuesday.
Kathleen Jensen, a long time friend of the Holmes family, says: "I can't imagine what her parents are going through right now. She really needs to get that baby baptised in the Catholic church."
And Becky Gillsdorf, who attended an all-girls school with Holmes, tells US tabloid National Enquirer: "She's (Holmes) lost everything. Cruise is a couch-jumping lunatic, and she is under his spell."
Ironically, like Holmes, Cruise was brought up a Catholic and once considered becoming a Catholic priest before he discovered Scientology.
