This is from probably the most traditionalist man on the planet on the 44th World Day of Communications to be held on May 16th. The theme, The Priest and Pastoral Ministry in a Digital World: New Media at the Service of the Word. Wow...

Check out the site. http://www.pope2you.net. I think it's time to speak to my pastor about doing something about our church's website as well. Broken links and outdated info. Surely we can't be that bad.
