The Weight of Glory

From the StarQuest Production Network (SQPN):

On June 22, 2008, SQPN will host the first Catholic New Media Celebration. This festive event will be held in conjunction with the Eucharistic Congress that takes place the day before in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Catholic New Media Celebration is going to be an unprecedented event in the history of Catholic media.

Visit the official website for the Catholic New Media Celebration at http://celebration.sqpn.com. Event flyer available here.

It will teach you, both as a media producer as well as simply someone who enjoys Catholic New Media, how to get involved in the exciting media revolution that is opening up so many new opportunities for the Church to spread the message of Jesus, the Bread of Life.

While we will be revealing more details about the program in the near future, here are already some reasons why you can’t afford to miss this day:

• It’s going to be big: it’s the biggest Catholic New Media event ever organized!


• It’s a celebration: there will be a lot of fun, some exciting surprises and great performances!


• It’s a reunion: meet all your friends, podcasters and fellow listeners that you’ve met online!


• It’s a training seminar: we will show you how you can make your own podcast, video, or even a live internet radio and television station!


• It’s Catholic: the Eucharist will be the heart of the celebration!


• It’s what the Pope encourages: “The new media – telecommunications and internet in particular – are changing the very face of communication; perhaps this is a valuable opportunity to reshape it!” - Pope Benedict XVI, message for the 42nd World Communications Day


• The event will be FREE, easily accessible, and hotels and transportation are readily available.

Come to the Eucharistic Congress on Saturday and stay for the Catholic New Media Celebration on Sunday. It will be a weekend you will never forget!

We hope to bring together some 600 people, but we can only reach that goal if you help us. Help us spread the word about this event by telling your friends and family about it. We will keep you informed about the celebration on www.sqpn.com.
