The CHNetwork Weekly Roundup #437

December 27, 2024 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

Please consider an end-of-year gift to help us continue our work into 2025 and beyond! To give now, visit chnetwork.org/compass.

This week’s episode of The Journey Home was an encore of our discussion with John Levi Davidson, whose reversion led him into work as a hip hop artist and a Catholic educator.

We shared an article with stories illustrating how one conversion can have a “ripple effect” that impacts families, friends, and even future generations.

And if you visited us at Mass for Christmas for the first time — or the first time in a long time — we’d love to invite you to keep coming back.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION

Lindsay Schlegel looked at the dramatic conversion story of St. Charles de Foucauld.

And the miracle that paved the way for Pier Giorgio Frassatti’s canonization involved a former atheist who is now a Catholic priest.

APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK

Deacon Mike Bickerstaff reflected on Mary as the Ark of the New Covenant.

And Joe Heschmeyer responded to the annual attack from some fundamentalist Christians that Christmas is a pagan holiday.

A member whose work schedule is making it difficult for them to participate in OCIA, another member whose OCIA process has been interfered with by a long illness, and all our members preparing to be received into the Church in 2025 — 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!
