The latest from CHNetwork
The July CHNewsletter is out! Read it here.
This week’s episode of The Journey Home was a fascinating discussion with Fr. Brad Elliott, O.P., a former Lutheran who was a professional drummer before following a call to the Catholic Faith and the priesthood.
Kenny Burchard wrote about how he preached and sang about the blood of Jesus as a Pentecostal, and how becoming Catholic has deepened that devotion for him.
And we shared the dramatic written testimony of Rachel Bulman, adopted from the Philippines into a Pentecostal family, and now a Catholic mom serving the Church.

CONVERTS AND CONVERSION
Meg Hunter-Kilmer shared the stories of the Ugandan Martyrs, all of whom were converts, most of whom died not long after being baptized.
Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus in The Chosen, shared how he ended up becoming Catholic.
Catholic World Report reviewed a new memoir from Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Dion DiMucci about his return to the Catholic Church.
Aleteia profiled the Catholic conversion of Academy Award winner Susan Heyward.
And Pope Leo XIV has again expressed a desire to work toward full and visible communion with Orthodox Christians.
APOLOGETICS PICKS OF THE WEEK
Manuel Bravo shared a video explaining the layers of history underneath St. Peter’s Basilica.
And Tim Clark shared the story of how one parish in Mississippi made the Catechism more accessible to the whole world.

A member exploring the possibility of religious life, another member feeling overwhelmed by all the new things they’re learning, and all our members who are starting to come down from the initial high of becoming Catholic at Easter — 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!
