When "Friends" Become Friends
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Family on Thursday, August 05, 2010
Yesterday, I felt as though the wall of my Facebook page was coming to life! I had the great pleasure of attending the Catholic Marketing Network Show and the Catholic Writer’s Conference here in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Being on the show floor is a little bit like going to a Catholic Disneyland, but the best part of being present here is the opportunity to meet so many of my online friends... READ MORE
Off to Steubenville…San Diego!

Right about now, my teenage sons should be headed into a sports arena full of rowdy teens for three days of fun, frivolity and faith. Their destination? Steubenville San Diego.
Three years ago, Eric (the older kid) attended this conference as a relatively timid rising Sophomore. It was sort of the unofficial launch of his Confirmation preparation - his first real outing with our Life Teen group. ... READ MORE

Do you love to write? Have you considered using your passion for writing to blog, write for a magazine, or even pen a book? Then you’ll want to consider attending the upcoming “Catholic Writers’ Conference LIVE” August 4-6 in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. I’m so happy to be a speaker and panelist at this event, but most of all I’m thrilled that I’m going to have the opportunity to meet and hear from... READ MORE
Fully Alive!

This week’s conference experience has been full of blessings, large and small. Among the greatest has been the chance to meet a few of my favorite authors and speakers in person. On Wednesday, I couldn’t write fast enough during Teresa Tomeo’s keynote address. And today, I had to really stop from looking like a giddy fool when I had the opportunity to meet and chat with Dr. Greg and Lisa Popcak of the Pastoral Solutions Institute. ... READ MORE

This week, I have had the honor and pleasure of being a speaker at the annual National Association of Catholic Family Life Ministers meeting at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. They tell me that Cincinnati is a very nice city, but I’ll admit that I haven’t stepped off the campus since I arrived and am headed home tomorrow—so it looks like I’m going to have to plan a return visit to taste the...

Faith & Family on the Road
Posted by Robyn Lee in Just me on Monday, March 01, 2010
I love going to conferences. This past weekend I was blessed to travel with Associate Editor, Lynn Wehner, to the Boston Catholic Women’s Conference (doesn’t our display and table look great?).
I love conferences because all I have to do is show the beauty of the print magazine and it speaks for itself.
Women flip through the magazine and ask, “Why have I never seen this before? This is exactly what... READ MORE

Lucky me! As you read this, I’m winging my way to San Antonio for this year’s Catholic New Media Celebration, hosted by the Star Quest Production Network. Of the many things I’m looking forward to this weekend, probably one of the most exciting is that I get to meet Danielle Bean in person!!
Danielle and I will be joining other Catholic New Media enthusiasts for a look out how we can follow in the... READ MORE
Write On!

Danielle’s post earlier this week about Kateri’s gift of writing has me thinking about the joys of putting pen to paper - or fingers to keyboards - and sharing the thoughts that lie deep within our hearts.
Like Kateri, I’m learning to write. I’ve been in the process for years now, honing my skills and learning to listen to that inner voice that encourages me to document the little moments that make... READ MORE
