Some of us will stray for one reason or another, only to return to the Lord and the Church in time. When our brothers and sisters go through this process, let us welcome them with the open arms of the Father who longs for their return.  In fact, let us pray even today for their return to be soon.  If you know someone who seems to have fallen away, call them out by name and ask that God would draw them back to himself and to us.
