The latest from CHNetwork
The September 2023 CHNewsletter is out! Read it here.
This week’s episode of The Journey Home was an encore of our conversation with Pat Flynn, who shared his philosophy-driven journey from atheism to the Catholic Faith.
In the latest On The Journey episode, Matt, Ken and Kenny kicked off a brand new series on the Church, beginning by sharing what they each used to mean by the word “church” back in their Protestant days.
And in a newly available written conversion story, Pam Mings, a former Baptist, shared how her desire to learn about annulments led her to become Catholic.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION
Pope Francis recently discussed Catholic convert St. Kateri Tekakwitha as a model of patience in the face of suffering.
And Casey and Erin Phillips shared some thoughts for anyone who has been taken aback that someone they know has decided to become Catholic.
APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK
Casey Chalk showed how even flawed historical accounts still serve a purpose in giving us a picture of Church history.
Aleteia shared the story of the world’s first cathedral named for Mother Teresa.
And dozens of nuns showed up at a Whippy Dip in rural Michigan to celebrate the vows of one of their new members.

A member worried about finding work if they leave Protestant ministry to become Catholic, a lifelong agnostic struggling to come to terms with the divinity of Jesus, and all our members who are the only Catholics in their families — these are just a few of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network.

“If you wish God to anticipate your wants, provide those of the needy without waiting for them to ask you. Especially anticipate the needs of those who are ashamed to beg. To make them ask for alms is to make them buy it.”
