Just passing some points along…<\/p>\n

If you live in Victoria, BC, check out the new Edith Stein Society, which kicks off its efforts this weekend with talks from George Weigel.<\/a><\/p>\n

Speaker Gil Bailie has a blog<\/a> – because of the illness of his wife he has cut down the amount of speaking that he’s been doing, and hoping to continue to get his message out through his blog.<\/a><\/p>\n

Take a look at the Ekklesia Project website.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Endorsers of the project come from many Christian traditions(Catholic, Orthodox, Mainline Protestant, Anabaptist and "Emerging Church"), and you can read about our shared vision for the divided church on the website as well.  One of the four primary commitments of EP members is Christian nonviolence, either by follwing strict Just War theory or pacifism, so the reflection I posted is, I hope, grounded in those practices.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Catholic Library is online:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n
\n

The purpose of The Catholic Library is to assemble a comprehensive collection of public domain Catholic books, articles on Catholic subjects, and official documents of Holy Mother Church, and to present them, free of charge, to the general Internet populace. We hope to make the official documents available in English, in their original language, and in Latin – the language of Holy Mother Church.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Scott and Kimberly Hahn and Mike Aquilina are leading a pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi next May – should be great!<\/a><\/p>\n

The Catholicism comes from her side. Amy grew up in a number of places - Indiana - Washington, DC - Lubbock Texas - Arlington, Virginia - DeKalb, Illinois - Lawrence, Kansas - and Knoxville, Tennessee, where the family settled in 1973. She attended Knoxville Catholic High School, then the University of Tennessee where she majored in history. She received an MA in Church History from Vanderbilt University, where she wrote a thesis on the changing role of women in 19th century American Protestantism, and the ways Scripture was used to justify those changes. She worked as as a teacher in Catholic high schools and a Parish Director of Religious Education and started writing for the diocesan press - the Florida Catholic - in 1988. Amy has written columns for Our Sunday Visitor and Catholic News Service at times over the past twenty years. Her articles have been published in venues ranging from Our Sunday Visitor to the New York Times to Commonweal. She has written 17 books. 18, if you included the as yet tragically unpublished novel. Amy has five children, ranging in age from 26 to 4 and was married to Michael Dubruiel, who died unexpectedly in February 2009. She lives in Birmingham, Alabama.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/author\/awelborn"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5684","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5684"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5684\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5684"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5684"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5684"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
