New Year’s blessings to you:
With the Christmas season upon us, I wanted to once again wish you and yours a joyful Christmas Season and healthy and prosperous New Year.
As we turn another page and enter a new year, we at Catholic Exchange wish to express our gratitude and acknowledge our indebtedness to all our loyal and faithful supporters who have supported us these past seven years. We thank you and remain committed to serving you in 2009 and beyond.
We are finishing our most successful year-end fundraise in recent memory, which has been a great shot-in-the-arm to our hard-working staff. If you were among among those who contributed, THANK YOU! If you are someone who might need a final encouragement to make a tax-deductible, end-of-year contribution to our robust apostolate, here are some messages that have boosted our spirits over the past few days:
“I have been watching the post Prop-8 witch hunt. Do not be deterred. You stood up for the culture, for families and kids. You are patriots and a credit to this nation. May the blessings of the Lord be with you” — Dan G. (San Diego).
“Thank you, Catholic Exchange, for your phenomenal work! I read your articles daily and have introduced your site to many people. Thank you, too, for keeping the site content high quality and CATHOLIC!! God bless you!” — Mary L. (Charlotte, NC).
“I am sure there are many times when you do not feel it or see it, but your ministry has touched hundreds of thousands if not millions across the globe. Our blessed Lord sees it and thanks you for it, even if the world sometimes does not show you” — Peter O. (London, England).
“May God continue to bless your work at Catholic Exchange” — James C. (Australia).
“I have found your site to be most informative. I read it everyday. Keep up the good work!” — Henry D. (Canada).
You are a vital part of this faith-building mission, my friends — which, if you think about it, is all that really matters in this world. We execute, but you provide the means for doing so.
As a small token of my thanks, I am offering a FREE HARDCOVER copy of Catholic investment legend Frank Hanna’s must-read book, “What Your Money Means: And How to Use It Well” with any $100 or more donation made to Catholic Exchange before end of year. This special volume, endorsed by Archbishop Charles Chaput and EWTN’s Raymond Arroyo to name just a few, will quite simply change your life by putting your relationship with money on a new and healthier course. It is a simple and fascinating read, utterly ripe for the economic environment in which we find ourselves.
Thank you once again for all you have done for us and our readers. We are launching new features on the site and staying on the cutting edge of Catholic film and media (with some projects taking shape that are going to blow your mind).
Have a happy and blessed New Year, and I’ll see you online.
In JMJ,
Tom Allen
Editor & President
Catholic Exchange
