Fatherhood as Vocation Retreats & Conferences

Looking for a speaker for your Parish or Catholic organization? If so, we'll be happy to present a talk or conference on "Fatherhood as Vocation." Our message is on the importance of redeeming and re-building the role of the father in Catholic families - perhaps one of the most neglected topics of the last century. We examine the role of the father in theology, tradition and scripture and then look at practical ways for fathers to embrace their old and new testament heritage. More. . .

April 2, 2003 - Web Site Redesign Completed

We've completed a major overhaul of Catholicwitness.com. New highlights include:

Devine Office: Left home without your breviary? From the home page, you can get today's gospel; morning, evening, night prayers, and the Office of Readings; and the liturgical calendar.

Catholic News: Get current with feeds from the Vatican News Service, Zen it and the Catholic News Service.

Apologetic Tracts - Short treatises on Catholic topics.

Prayer Board: We're posting prayer requests. Send yours to editor@catholicwitness.com.

12 Steps with Scripture: New article on 12 step programs integrated with scripture. Did you know that a Jesuit priest helped form this 20th century spiritual program. (Oh, yes, Mrs. Rose F., T.O.P., insists that we give proper credit to Sr. Ignatia, a catholic sister who is credited with helping 15000 alcoholics get sober. One of those she treated was AA co-founder, Dr. Bob)

Confessions of St. Augustine: The first volume in our online digital library.

New articles. Some original, some reprints, some linked including several from our very own Fr. James M. Sullivan, O. P. in the Christian Life section.

What Color is Your Spirituality? Click one of the links under "Pick-A-Style." (lower left of your screen). Also offers higher contrast for the visually impaired.

Gift Shop: We offer evangelical and apologetic books and tapes online. You can also register for special events at the gift shop. Don't forget to tell your friends about our upcoming "Fatherhood as Vocation" retreat conference.

Now that the mechanics and coding are done, (well, mostly done) we can now start focusing on content. We encourage third order members, especially Dominicans, to submit articles, treatises and content. We're also interested in hearing about your favorite sites. We welcome content from anyone as long as it conforms with the magisterium and is evangelical in tone.
