The Cardinal Arinze Webcast

Yes, the world-famous cardinal webcasts. If you can’t wait, you can click here to leave my site and begin listening to Cardinal Francis Arinze. The cardinal’s webcasts discuss “what the Catholic Church really is about and what her true message is on living a joyful and fulfilling life.”

I am convinced that webcasting and similar technology offer a new and powerful way of spreading and discussing in depth the message of the Gospel. That is why I am glad the Vatican has taken advantage of the popularity of this technology. Cardinal Francis Arinze is the Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments. The cardinal is no stranger to the world of new media. He appears regularly on TV and has produced almost about 2,000 TV programs with the Apostolate for Family Consecration.

Holy Rosary Podcast (Tagalog Version)

I have not podcasted for quite a while, so I said yes when Jun Asis of mabutingbalita.net asked me to help him make a Rosary podcast. The Rosary podcast we’ve recorded is in the Tagalog language. Since October is the month of the Holy Rosary, we thought it would be timely to make it available now.

Why pray the rosary? The main reason why we need to pray the Rosary is to remember in prayer the important events or mysteries in the history of our salvation. Each mystery of the Rosary is a meditation on a particular moment in the life and work of Christ.

Feel free to download or listen to the Tagalog version of the Holy Rosary by clicking the following:

Almost Done

My Joomla-powered podcast site is almost done. It looks decent but it is not yet perfect. I mean, some components, bots and modules are yet to be installed. And it seems that there are errors when it is viewed with Microsoft Internet Explorer so I still have to fix that. Well, my site is too cool for IE anyway. My suggestion? Uninstall IE, and use Opera or Firefox.

Podcast Promo

I just thought it was a good idea to make a podcast promo.

Dutch Communicants

In this podcast epidsode you are going to meet five Dutch boys and girls, aged between eight and eleven. They are Daisy-Mae, Chrisamae, Rubbin, Willibeth and Anna Rose. They are first communicants and they are going to tell us why they want to receive Jesus in the Eucharist. You are also going to meet Sr. Juliet, the Filipina Holy Spirit sister who prepared the children for their first Holy Communion in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

Mylene

Mylene is only 29 years old but she already went through three surgical operations. First, for a kidney transplant when she was only 24. Second, to remove a lump in her breast. And just recently, to replace her damaged hip. At first she was very bitter and even blamed God. But now she feels bubbly and, as a nurse in a British hospital, makes it a point to bring hope and inspiration to her patients. What changed her outlook? What is her source of strength? How can wounding be a source of blessing? Why does she think that through her sickness God has given her a mission? Download this podcast to listen to Mylene’s story and allow her to bring hope and inspiration into your life today.
