A member struggling with Catholic teaching on life issues, another member praying their interest in Catholicism doesn’t become a wedge in their marriage, and all our members who are preparing for the Rite of Election in the coming days – these are just a few examples of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network International.
