According to Internet World Statistics, 25.6% of world population uses the internet, a 600% increase from 10 years ago. This is why even the Catholic Church and the religious communities also made the internet as their medium for evangelization. Here are some of the websites we can use as reference to deepen our knowledge about the Written Word, know more about our Catholic community and share our faith to other believers.
• Our Church – These are our connections to our Church's activities, priorities, intentions and responses to world’s moral issues.
o The Vatican http://www.vatican.va/
o Website of Archbishop of Manila http://www.rcam.org/
o CBCP online http://www.cbcponline.net/
• Catholic Question and Answers – These websites provides common Q&As and to learn more about our Catholic traditions, faith and history.
• Facebook - Even this social networking site is home to some prominent personalities and groups. You can search these people or group in Facebook to connect with them:
o Bishop Chito Tagle – He is from Diocese of Imus, clips from his show ‘The Word Exposed’ is uploaded here every week.
o Bo Sanchez – He is a well-known Catholic Lay Preacher and author of numerous books. Most of his free articles and clips from his talks are uploaded in this site.
o 100% Katolikong Pinoy – A page where Pinoy Catholics connect and exchange ideas about Catholic faith
o Kape’t Pandasal - A brief daily reflection and prayer. This is where clips from their show in ABS-CBN is being uploaded. It is meant to be a "spiritual vitamin" to begin each day. The daily reflections are written and hosted by Jesuits priests and brothers, with Bishop Chito Tagle.
These are but some of our ‘soul’ connections to our faith through the web. Let us make good use of this technology to unite with our fellow Christians, and deepen our faith.
