A member preparing for their first Confession, another member who wants to become Catholic but loves their nondenominational church community, 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!
