A former pastor wondering how he’ll support his family now that he’s pursued his interest in Catholicism, a member who’s experiencing spiritual warfare as she begins RCIA, and all our members working through annulments on their way into the Church – these are just a few examples of the people we are praying for and working with this month at The Coming Home Network International. Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!
