Posted on November 12, 2019 in: News

 

Dear Faithful Readers . . . 
Once a year we appeal to your generosity to help defray the production costs of our print, online, and email newsletter editions of the Four County Catholic. 

Thank you in advance for responding to our annual appeal. We are grateful for your generous support, prayers, and encouragement. Your help makes it possible for us to continue bringing the good news from around the diocese to you. In the past year, we have expanded our online presence on the NorwichDiocese.org website with the addition of Photo and Video Galleries of all the major events. 

Our Social Media presence has also increased with the addition of regular Facebook Postings.

The one advancement that we are most excited about is The Four County Catholic Weekly Newsletter. This summer we engaged our software developer to create a visually appealing, automated process to deliver the latest news and upcoming events directly into a reader’s email inbox.  So far thousands of you have signed up to receive this free weekly newsletter. If you aren’t yet receiving it then please visit NorwichDiocese.org/Newsletter, sign up and while you are at it sign up friends and family members who you think may be interested.

"God is not Solitude, but Communion; He is Love, and therefore communication,
because love always communicates; indeed,
it communicates itself in order to encounter the other."
Pope Francis, Message for World Communications Day 2019

We are working on expanding our Social Media presence onto other platforms. You can let us know what Social Media Apps you prefer as well as how we are doing overall by emailing us at Communications@NorwichDiocese.net.

We would also appreciate you keeping us in your prayers.
