Events Calendar Brings Catholics Together

It was back in the summer that Catholic Match released it’s updated

events calendar. We have been gratified by the response to this new

feature. The CM calendar has served as an outpost to help bring members

together across the country. From Boston to Tucson, get-togethers have

been promoted and discussed online. Increasing numbers of members have

started to submit activities taking place in their own communities for

placement on the calendar. Events from rosary groups, to Bible studies

to Young Adult gatherings, to high-profile conferences—all have found

their way on to the Catholic Match events page.

The ultimate purpose of all these events is to facilitate the

process of members meeting each other in the “real world”, and not just

online. We encourage all members to submit the activities taking place

in their local area. It doesn’t matter if it’s big or small—if

Catholics are gathering, we want to help spread the word. God

ultimately works through community in helping us find His will—by

placing technology at the service of the community, we seek to help our

users come closer to discerning and embracing the life He has called

them too.

You can help too. Just click “Add your event” on the righthand side

of the events page. We review events for approval each business day. If

you are going to attend a posted activity, there’s a place on each

event page for you to let your fellow CMers know you’ll be there. Each

meeting of fellow Catholics draw all a little bit closer to the Divine

Heart of Christ.
