Dear Catholic Communicator: As a fellow communicator, we want to personally extend an invitation to become a part of making history.
In his visit to the United States, Pope Benedict XVI called for a “New Pentecost.” In response to this call - and the continuing call of the Church to use all of the “new technologies” for the “New Evangelization” - Catholic Online, a global integrated media network, has launched The Catholic Media Association (TCMA). The Catholic Media Association exists to provide a virtual home and association-based community for faithful Catholics involved in any and all forms of media. We now live in an era of integrated communication, and with this we are given an even greater responsibility for the proper stewardship of these tools. "Technology" is not an "add-on" to our communication or our community; it is an extension of the person, the family and our communities with no limitations. This is the new world of social networking, where the old differentiation of media no longer exists. Print, radio, TV, and the worldwide web are now integrated with the newer technologies of video-casting, podcasting, blogging, and the world of social networking. We now have a more united media available for a unified message – the message of the Gospel, as lived in it’s fullness in the heart of the Church.
Dedicated to the Servant of God John Paul II, Patron of the New Media, the motto of TCMA reveals our mission: “New Technologies for the New Evangelization.” Our vision is exciting - we see the need to place all communications technologies at the service of the person, the family, the Church and the culture. This is our business and our passion. The use of every communicative advance is integral to the “New Evangelization”. We will be satisfied with nothing less. Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI have both challenged all who are baptized, whatever their state of life, to fully participate in the New Missionary Age in which we live. They have used rich phrases such as “New Evangelization” “New Springtime” and a “New Pentecost” to speak of the universal call to missionary activity. Media and technology are two of the greatest resources we have available for this work. We are inviting you to join us in this exciting endeavor.
Whatever your expertise and interest, TCMA can provide a foundation and forum for your work in media and the Church. CLICK HERE – THE CATHOLIC MEDIA ASSOCIATION To find out more about who we are and what we offer to you right now.
