Return: How to Draw Your Child Back to the Church

The statistics are troubling: 6.5 people leave the Catholic Church for every one that joins, and 50% of young people who were raised Catholic are no longer Catholic today. The Catholic Church is hemorrhaging young people. Behind these statistics are countless stories of wounded families. Millions of mothers and fathers are longing for their prodigal children to come home to the Church, crying: “Where did we go wrong?” The passive wait-and-see approach is no longer an option. We need a different strategy. We need to understand the real reasons why our young people drift away, and we need a game plan to bring them home. We need Return.

Saint Monica and the Power of Persistent Prayer

Many of us give up on prayer when we don't get the answer we want WHEN we want it.

For nearly two decades, Saint Monica prayed for her wayward son. Years and years of prayers, seemingly unanswered. Countless tears shed with no relief. Yet she would not give up.

That very act of persistent prayer blessed the entire Church, for we have all benefitted from the conversion of her son, Augustine, who became one of the most revered saints of all time.

Parents of any age or at any stage can cultivate the same virtues in prayer that Saint Monica discovered during her long wait for God's answer for her child. This devotion includes 18 contemporary reflections, meditations taken from the writings of Saint Augustine, and prayers adapted from the liturgy and other ancient sources.

Don't give up. Persistence in prayer can change everything-for you, your children, and maybe even the world.

"How to Draw Your Child Back to Church" & "St Monica and Power Persistent Prayer"

"Both books are worthwhile. . . . . . . . . and unfortunately we all know friends and relatives who have ""fallen away"" from the Church. Hopefully st Monica's example of her prayers and hope that her wayward son, (now St Augustine) would return will work for us as well!"

Return, a wonderful resource

"Actually, I read this book when it first came out and lent it to a fellow parishioner. It offered very practical advice and a long list of resources for anyone trying to bring a fallen-away Catholic back home. I never received my first copy back because my friend continued to share it!"
