Nearly everyone knows someone who has, for whatever reason, distanced themselves from the Church and their faith. If this is a family member, we usually have especially strong concern and would like to help this individual. But, what do you say? How do you go about helping? 

One way you might help is to suggest they check out Father Pat Umberger’s web pages devoted solely to this topic. Fr. Pat has designed his “CMONBACK” site based on many years personal experience in helping to guide those who left the faith or just dropped out, to find and renew their relationship with God and His Church. 

Some of the areas Fr. Pat covers are:
Lack of Time * I don’t get anything out of it. * “But the roof might cave in!” * I’m afraid of terrorism and war * Painful Memories * Resentments * Hurt by the Church * Marriage Problems
