LAST CALL - Your Christmas Mass schedule needed - Catholic Times will be publishing Christmas Mass schedules, which will appear in the Dec. 10 edition. If you would like your parish/parishes included, please complete the online form by Nov. 16. Note, if you have several parishes, please submit separate submissions, one for each church. Submit your schedule here: ct.dio.org/christmasschedule. Thank you in advance!
Catholic Schools Week submissions needed - Catholic Schools Week begins on Jan. 28, 2024. Catholic Times will be featuring the annual Catholic Schools Week special section in our January 21 edition. We would like every school to participate in this special section in recognition of Catholic education. Each school has two options and one way to submit your piece. You can either:
- send Catholic Times an article of 250 (or so) words or:
- send a picture with a short caption.
You will submit this using the online form here: https://www.jotform.com/form/92934909594979
When you submit your article or photograph about your school, the topic is up to you, with one exception — no sports stories. The stories should be typed and double-spaced, about 250 (or so) words. Photos should be 300 dpi or better and sent as an image file (such as .jpeg or .pdf). Everything must be submitted through the link above. Submissions must be made by Thursday, Dec. 14.
Please use this as an opportunity to highlight something unique at your school, even if it has occurred within the last few months. Whether it is an event, some of your students did something amazing, how your school gives back, something your students will be doing in 2024 that is exciting — anything that highlights Catholic education and especially your school. Think of this as a marketing opportunity to showcase your school.
Answering your questions on dying and death - Catholic Times has put together an easy to navigate and comprehensive look at end-of-life issues. A bulletin announcement is available for easy copy and paste to promote this.
