OK, so it’s been a really long while since I’ve wrote a blog. Sorry about that. But, today, after meeting great bloggers and podcasters, I was inspired to at least say something about how wonderful of an experience I had in Atlanta for the FIRST Catholic New Media Celebration! It was an incredible thing to actually meet the people you read about, see on the websites, and hear about from other people who are also part of the New Media Celebration. So, please know that I hope to post pictures of some of the folks that I had the privilege of meeting. But, right now I have to say Evening Prayer and then head off to the Willits’ home - from Rosary Army, and catch up with his family, Fr. Roderick, and a whole host of other popular bloggers and podcasting folks, and I will cook a pasta sauce! It will be a creamy chicken rose sauce. Hopefully it will be tasty. But, one way or another, I have definitely been satisfied by the incredible witness of these great New Media Artists!

Fr. Leo, it was so wonderful to meet you today and to hear you speak. Now I can’t wait to voraciously read (and eat) my way through your cookbook with my family.
God bless you as you continue to encourage families everywhere to nourish their bodies and their souls.
In Christ,

Posted by Lisa M. Hendey on June 23rd, 2008 at 9:14 pm.It was such a treat to meet you this weekend. I’m still contemplating your keynote speech from Sunday and how I can “be not afraid” and use my life and my skills as “bait”. Thanks for the inspiration and for all the hard work you are doing to help our families. Lisa, CatholicMom.com
Hi Fr. Leo,
It was fantastic meeting you in Atlanta and sharing Mass with you and all the others in attendance at the Catholic New Media Celebration.
Isn’t the growing presence of the Church in the the online virtual world fascinating to watch?
I can hardly wait to see what comes next!
God Bless,

Greetings Fellow PodCasting, Blogging, New Media Friends:
It’s been a few weeks since our time together in Atlanta, but I have to admit, even those few hours together made me feel quite at home with all y’all. As you can see, I’m still speaking a little Suthr’n!
Keep up your great work and keep spreading the message that will bring our families back to our table and most importantly, back to God’s Table!
Peace!
