The secular media is buzzing

This forum is intended to be a safe place for non-Catholics AND Catholics to ask questions about Catholicism and Catholic teachings. Here you can read about the faith from faithful, practicing Catholics, ask them your questions, and start to find out exactly what being a Catholic is all about. (Questions and discussions on matters of faith are to be kept respectful and non-inflammatory.)

CCH was even recently interviewed on a national progressive talk radio show!
Most important are the many souls who are being impacted thanks to your faithful support! We hope you are as inspired as we are by the testimonials below:


Atheist turns Catholic in Denver
"Months ago, I was an atheist trying to convert people out of faith, Today I have returned to the Church, and now I am learning apologestics and defending the faith" - Adrian


Hispanic woman returns in Boston after years away from Church
"I have come back to the Church a month today. The joy I feel is beyond words" -Jackie

Young Adult Returns to Church in Green Bay
"Television commercials for Catholics Come Home aired locally and I was inspired by the media spot that highlighted Jesus calling Peter 'the rock' and saying 'Upon this rock I will build my church.' After that, I started to investigate the Church. everything just made sense to me and I knew that's where I belong." -Casey
Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales

I saw the commercial, i think during an evening news show, and was very impressed with representations of modern life built on images of traditional religious life and sacramental worship.

It's in the article Denise provided, but this is quick link to the commercial on YouTube .. it might bring some Catholics home, and bring in some who've never had a home here. :)
