Jerome Holtzman - A true legend.

Along with the late great Mike Royko, one of my favorite Chicago journalists.  For budding journalists (and bloggers) everywhere, here is the standard to beat.  Good luck. He set the bar high.

I Like To Be Catholic - The Music Video

Here is our unofficial theme song.

Earlier this year I gave a speech to a group of parishioners at Divine Mercy Catholic Church in Faribault, Minnesota. At the end of my talk the organizer of the event, Justin Stroh, grabbed his guitar and led the group in a rousing rendition of a song that he wrote, called I Like To Be Catholic. My memory may be failing me, but I was certain that he changed the words to be I ‘love’ to be Catholic. Of course, my brain is probably wired to hear it as Love To Be Catholic. I was so surprised and pleased by the song. It immediately became the unofficial theme song of LoveToBeCatholic.com. After much begging and pleading, Justin’s friend Brad posted a music video of the song on LoveToBeCatholic.com. I am grateful for the opportunity to have met Brad and Justin and thankful that they took the time to produce and post this video. Moreover I am so pleased that people like Justin and Brad are using our platform to share their good works with both their fellow parishioners and across the globe as well.  It is a validation of what we are trying to do.

Thanks to Justin for the original song and Brad for the video production!
