Welcome Home Catholics
A FRESH START
Good News for our baptized, yet inactive Catholics!. Welcome Home Catholics is launching
"A Fresh Start"
right here to invite you back to Mass and the sacraments. This six-part series brings to your screens WHC's time-tested parish format listed on our "What To Expect" page. Recorded at St. Patrick Parish in Lafayette, Louisiana by Channel One Digital, this series features Sunday Mass at St. Ignatius Parish in Mobile, Alabama and the finest Biblical art including the work of Rembrandt, da Vinci and Caravaggio.
Also streaming at no charge on YouTube, this video series will help inactive Catholics get back up to speed. WHC host parishes will also be able to access “A Fresh Start” on a tv, laptop or tablet at weekly sessions as a springboard for vibrant discussions. So will those not able to attend due to age, illness or distance. "A Fresh Start "is also helpful for similar ministries such as OCIA. Practicing Catholics can view as a refresher of our faith’s essentials.
“A Fresh Start” launches this Easter to reach the many Catholics who are not in touch with their local parishes. But, you don’t have to wait until Easter! Attend a Mass near you today and, after Easter, the WHC sessions. To learn more and see this season’s participating parishes, visit the Schedule page. First, preview this trailer for ... “A Fresh Start.”

Prayers of the Faithful for Lent
For those who have drifted away from the Church that we may be signs of the Lord’s love and care for them.
That our inactive Catholics may come to know the great joy of God’s abundant love and mercy to guide them home to the sacraments.
That those separated from the Church may find comfort and peace in the Sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist during this Lenten season.
