Today (Thursday, April 29th) is the six-week anniversary of the public launch of The Integrated Catholic Life eMagazine. Please excuse a bit of shameless promotion, but we are beside ourselves with gratitude to God for how He is blessing this effort. As you already know, if you have been reading the articles here for a while, what began as a simple, standard blog has transformed into a full-fledged electronic magazine of mostly original content intended to help you integrate your Catholic faith into all aspects of your life – thus our slogan of “Integrating Faith, Family and Work.”
This effort is still in its early stages and there is much to be done and many benchmarks to achieve, but you, our readers are returning with regularity and are spreading the word by your personal endorsements, the very best kind. Already, thousands have visited from all over the world and the good news is that first-time visitors are returning. It is with humility and gratitude to God that I ask you to help us grow. Please take a moment to look at our “Meet Our Writers” page to see the growing lineup of world-class contributing writers that have joined this effort. More are on the way and will be announced soon – all dedicated to bringing you the very best articles containing practical help for living the faith. We are very grateful for their contributions.
