A member praying for humility as they share their Catholic journey with loved ones, a former pastor discerning what educational path to follow as they rethink their vocation, and all our members seeking to help loved ones return to the Church – 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!
