The Star Quest Production Network (SQPN) is pleased to announce the location and dates for the 4th Annual Catholic New Media Celebration.

The 4th Catholic New Media Celebration will be held at the Savior Pastoral Center of the Archdiocese of Kansas City. The dates for the conference are September 30 – October 2, 2011.

The Catholic New Media Celebration (CNMC) is a festive, educational, and international conference focused on evangelization and building community through the use of new media. This event is designed to connect, guide and inform Catholic communicators as a response to the Church’s call for new evangelization.

“The 2011 CNMC will focus particularly on social media, its impact on culture, and how the Church and its institutions can effectively use it,” says Fr. Roderick Vonhögen, CEO of SQPN. “We will be exploring how social media can be used with quality content; authentic catechesis and, a true sense of mission,” he says.

All interested in Catholic communication, new media, and social media are invited, including young adults (18+), ministry leaders, and priests and religious, to whom Pope Benedict appealed in his 2010 World Communications Day message, to “become an ever more pastoral presence on the web.”
