The CHNetwork Weekly Roundup #385

December 22, 2023 Blog, CHNetwork Weekly Roundup

Got a question about the Catholic Faith, or need assistance on your journey? Consider joining our Online Community, or feel free to contact us for support.  The Coming Home Network exists to help converts, “reverts,” those on the journey, and those who are just curious – we’d love to hear from you!

The latest from CHNetwork

This week’s episode of The Journey Home was an absolutely fascinating discussion with Dustin Quick about his journey through Islam and Calvinism to the Catholic Church.

In a new episode of CHNetwork Presents, Matt Swaim, JonMarc Grodi and Joseph Pearce looked at classic conversion-themed stories in Christmas films and literature.

We shared a special video invitation from JonMarc Grodi to those interested in visiting us at Mass this Christmas.

And Marcus Grodi shared a Christmas greeting and a brief update on what he’s been up to in his retirement.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION

Aleteia interviewed former Protestant missionary Casey Allison about her journey to the Catholic Faith.

Susanna Spencer shared tips from Catholic convert St. Edith Stein on religious education for children.

Martin Barillas took a deeper look at the life of Nicholas Black Elk, a Native American convert who is being considered for canonization.

And Joanna Wischer shared how recognizing Jesus as the Messiah led her to embrace Catholicism.

APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK

John Grondelski discussed what real angels are like beyond popular mythology.

And a Denver Catholic high school is using restaurant buzzers to let students know when it’s their turn for confession.

*****

A member who’s dabbled in several religions and is wondering if Catholicism could be their home, another member who’s finally ready to join their spouse in the Catholic Church, and all our members wondering how Catholicism might come up with their families over the holidays  — these are just a few of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network.  Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!

“If the princes and rulers of this world are privileged to make merry over the sons of their flesh, what a mountain of reasons we have for exulting over the birth of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Savior!”

St. Peter Canisius
