Amidst sports tournaments, end of the year recitals, school exams, vacation planning, business trips and everything else that keeps us so busy at this time of year, it might be worth it to take time out – time out to listen to stories of conversion and evangelization that remind us of the bigger world of our Christian faith.  In the next six weeks, for example, EWTN will be broadcasting the stories of a former Methodist pastor, Episcopalian priest, and Lutheran seminarian who all “came home” to Catholicism.  Tune into The Journey Home on Monday nights to be inspired by their journeys and discovery of the riches of Christ and his Church.

In addition, just this week in Atlanta, the President of Catholic Exchange will be giving a lecture at Holy Spirit College entitled “Awakening the Sleeping Giant- the Catholic Laity.”  A convert to Catholicism, Mr. Harold Fickett is sure to inspire the audience with his motivating and encouraging words to those of us “in the pews” on how we can best use our gifts and talents to proclaim the Gospel in our daily lives.  For more information, visit the Holy Spirit College website.
