The CatholiCity Message
Volume III, Number 32 – December 16, 1999
Dear CatholiCity Citizen,
Please remember new souls will return to the sacraments this Christmas.
1. NOT THE MOST FABULOUS
CatholiCity is the Internet services division of the Mary Foundation. The Mary Foundation is known for one thing: giving free Catholic CDs and audio tapes to you, the Catholic faithful, so you can give them to others. Do our tapes contain the most fabulous, super-fantastic talks in the world? No, of course not, but they are interesting and reliably effective tools for convincing otherwise lukewarm and indifferent Catholics to consider paying serious attention to the faith. These talks change the people who hear them.
Scott Hahn, Chris West, Father Corapi and others: give the most respected and well-known Catholic speakers of our time a chance to spend a little time with your friends and relatives this Christmas. Free means free. Money is not an issue here. If you live in the continental United States, make your request online today and we'll make sure you'll get your materials in time to give them away during the coming Christmas season. We'll ship them the day you click on "submit." Everyone, and we do mean everyone, should at least give the simple, effective every-day Mary Foundation Rosary CD or tape to every person you come into contact with this Christmas. Don't be afraid: get the word out. Go to:

2. YES, NO
You should also stock up on Bud Macfarlane novels. They especially help you get a foot into the door into the hearts of hard-to-reach souls. Pure grace, through your prayers and the prayers of thousands of others around the world, does the job of changing hearts, minds, and souls. And you can't beat "free" with a stick! Again, if you order online today, we'll ship them on the same-day and you'll get them in plenty of time for Christmas gift-giving. It's a fun and easy way to be a part of the New Evangelization!

3. GETTING HAMMERED
CatholiCity has been getting hammered in the past three weeks: problems converting our T1 line to our new office location, employee changes, and our webmaster got seriously ill during the most crucial change-over. Thanks for your patience.
BOOMERANGS OF THE WEEK
Q: What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back?
A: A stick.
Q: What did Mrs. Boomerang say to Mr. Boomerang as he walked out the door, his bags packed, after a big argument?
A: You'll come back! You always do!
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
"You cannot visit the child without visiting the mother; you cannot in common life approach a child except through the mother. If we are to think of Christ in this aspect at all, the other idea follows as it is followed in history. We must either leave Christ out of Christmas, or Christmas out of Christ, or we must admit, if only as we admit it in an old picture, that those holy heads are too near together for the haloes not to mingle and cross."
G.K. Chesterton, The Everlasting Man
Let's pray:
"Immaculate Mary, your praises we sing! You reign now in heaven with Jesus our king! Ave, ave, ave Maria! Ave, ave, ave Maria! Amen."
Peace, baby. Baby, peace. See you Next Millennium!
Yours in Christ,
Your Friends at CatholiCity
