A member praying his family will join him in the Catholic Church, another member whose mental health struggles are making their journey difficult, and all our members who are struggling to understand the Church’s moral teachings – these are just a few examples of the people we are praying for and working with at The Coming Home Network International. Please help us continue to support those on the journey by visiting chnetwork.org/donate today!
