Debbie Capen thought her decisions and experiences had put her beyond God's love and the possibility of forgiveness, and even felt alienated from the world around her.
She shares how the story of Jesus meeting the Woman at the Well in John 4 helps capture her experience of coming back to faith.
Not only did Debbie experience God's love and mercy like the Woman at the Well; she's since gone on to share her story and her gifts with women like herself, just the Woman at the Well, who was able to share the story of Jesus with the very community she'd been estranged from.

The Coming Home Network was established to help inquiring clergy and laity of various faiths -- or even no faith at all -- with fellowship, resources, and encouragement as they explore the possibility of becoming Catholic.
