A member experiencing loneliness on their journey to the Catholic faith, another member trying to find a parish that has an RCIA program that fits their schedule, and another member who feels stuck between Protestantism and Catholicism – 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!
