A member wondering how to respond to questions about their interest in Catholicism over Thanksgiving, another member hoping their children will return to faith, and all our members who are learning new things and making new friends in OCIA — 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!
