In a featured written testimony, Phillip Lester shared what happened when he decided to give the Catholic Church a chance.
And on the latest Insights, Dr. Benjamin Lewis shared the difference between a “church shopping” mentality and the Catholic concept of the geographical parish.

Dr. Jared Staudt explained why OCIA is more than just a series of classes.
Dr. Shane Rainey shared how the witness of Bl. Fulton Sheen helped lead him to the Catholic Church.
And Ugandan Catholics marked the 108th anniversary of the martrydom of two young Catholic converts and catechists who refused to renounce their faith under persecution.

A member feeling socially excluded in their parish, another member whose changing work schedule is making it difficult for them to attend Mass, and all our members who recently started 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!
