From the Mailbag

Aquinas and More Catholic Bookstore tells me they've got a spot for first communion:

Within the last couple of weeks, we launched a new website - First Communion Stories. It's a place for people to go and submit their own first communion stories, or those of their children. We're hoping lots of people go and share these great stories with others. Right now, we're running a little contest at the site for those who share their stories.

Rules:

1. Submit a First Communion story about you or your children by 3/20/09.
2. Story must be true and a GOOD memory.
3. Voting on stories will run through 4/11/09.
4. Voters may vote for more than one story but please only vote for a story once.
5. The winners will be announced on Easter Sunday, 4/12/09.
6. The first prize winner will receive a $60 gift card to Aquinas and More Catholic Goods and 3 sheets of laminated custom prayer cards printed with a prayer of his choice.
7. Two runner-up prizes for $25 gift cards to Aquinasandmore.com will be awarded as well.

Opposing Views website is an interesting spot I just discovered. They have reputable writers, interesting topics, and tell me:

To start, we now have a new information center dedicated to religion. We’re continually publishing new articles, expert research, videos and opinion in this evolving location. Since you cover the same topic, I think you—and your readers—may be very interested in seeing some of this material on a regular basis. You can check out the Religion in Society Center here.
