A member trying to overcome bad experiences with the Catholic Church as they return to the sacraments, another member looking for local support on their Catholic journey, and all our members who are interested in the Catholic Church but whose spouses aren’t on board – these are just a few examples of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network International. Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!
