What Will They Think of Next?

A parishioner sent me this information which she got from the Baltimore Sun Web Site. The Catholic Church in New York City apparently ran this "ad" on youtube to increase the response to confession during Holy Week. It is a takeoff of the "ShamWow!" commercial.

ELCA to Air Ads

One of my favorite web sites I visit regularly is the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Web Site. When I went there this week, I noticed one of the stories on the front page indicated that the ELCA will be running t.v. ads from May 11th-31st. You can preview the ads on this web page. The ads are very short, but they highlight the new tagline: God's work. Our hands. The ads will run nationally on CNN, CNN Headline News, Fox News, HGTV, and DIY Network. Apparently this has been in the planning stage for two years! So, if you watch any of those networks, keep an eye out for the ads!
