And a decree of Heroic Virtue was announced by the Vatican for Mary Mother Alphonsa (AKA Rose Hawthorne). She now has the title “Venerable!” We made a short video about her conversion this past Summer.

A member who’s struggling to accept certain aspects of Catholic moral teaching, another member who’s worried they’ll alienate their family by sharing their Catholic testimony, and all our members who are preparing to be received into the Church at Easter this year — 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!

“I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through belief in the Threeness,
Through confession of the Oneness
of the Creator of creation.”
