LOCAL CATHOLICS LAUNCH SUNDAY RADIO HOUR Every Sunday 4pm to 5pm, on KVOI AM-690Calling their Arizona non-profit corporation Culture of Life, Inc., a group of Tucson Catholic laymen has organized to pursue a document from the Second Vatican Council, "Inter-Mirifica"; a decree calling for Catholics to use the press, cinema and (broadcast) media to "announce the good news of the means of salvation, and to teach (us) how to use it properly". Calling their Arizona non-profit corporation Culture of Life, Inc., a group of Tucson Catholic laymen has organized to pursue a document from the Second Vatican Council, "Inter-Mirifica"; a decree calling for Catholics to use the press, cinema and (broadcast) media to "announce the good news of the means of salvation, and to teach (us) how to use it properly". Accordingly, the board of directors of Culture of Life, Inc. has voted to undertake a weekly radio hour to be aired every Sunday, beginning June tenth (10th), from 4pm to 5pm, on KVOI AM-690, and to simulcast on sister stations in Douglas and Globe. The program will be produced and hosted by retired Tucson broadcast veteran, Garry Greenberg. The program will offer discussions on catechetical topics following themes of the Catholic liturgical calendar, along with news of interest and interviews with local, national and international Church leaders; all in keeping with the authentic teaching of the Catholic Church. There will be a companion website featuring previous broadcasts and a local "bulletin board" as a service to members and friends of all parishes and other Catholic groups in support of their good work for the Church; information and links to other web sites for those in search of who the Catholic Church is and how to get more information from and about it. The website will link to a blog that will offer opportunity for comments and questions to be addressed in future broadcasts. President of Culture of Life, Inc., Mike Mohr, is chairman of St. Gianna Chapter, CUF* Tucson and a consecrated Marian Catechist. He states, "Our objective is to share the Truth of Jesus and His Church with our community through the modem miracle of the electronic media. We feel an urgent need to promote the authentic Culture of Life in a decaying -- formerly Judeo-Christian -- civilization that is now being ravaged by secularism's "culture of death". Toward that end, we also stage the annual Culture of Life Golf Challenge which will be held on November 16th, this year, again at Omni Tucson National Resort and Golf Club. For additional information and/or to get involved in the Culture of Life events contact Mike Mohr at: bmcmohr@aol.com, (PO Box 36958, Tucson, AZ 85704.) *CUF is an international laymen's organization, Catholics United for the Faith, which publishes church teachings and commentary, and supports Vatican positions on public policy. |
