The popular National Post columnist was in Vancouver to speak about the importance of the Church using modern means of communications, and he issued a strong plug for The B.C. Catholic, which is expanding its circulation over the coming weeks with the goal of reaching half of registered Catholic households by Christmas.
The importance of evangelizing, of building community, and of spreading news about the Church makes it essential that the Church have a publication that is in people's homes, he said. As The B.C. Catholic works on an expanded news website, also expected to be complete around Christmas, Catholics in the Archdiocese of Vancouver can expect that the newspaper and its online presence will become an increasingly important part of their faith lives. See next week's B.C. Catholic for more coverage of Father de Souza and the expanded circulation initiative.
