Called by Pope Benedict XVI for June 2009 - 2010, this Year for Priests provides us with the occasion to rediscover the importance of priests in our midst. They are called to be exemplars of Christ’s love and shepherds leading us closer to Christ. Salt + Light asked a few priests about their personal calling. Sprinkled through this edition are their vocation stories. We hope you will be inspired by their messages.

LAMPSTAND • 9 FROM THE EDITOR

A fond farewell In this, the last edition of lampstand for which I serve as editor, I reflect on my past year at Salt + Light. It has been an interesting and rewarding journey for me. I have had the pleasure of getting to know some very passionate and dedicated individuals – those who serve on the Board of Directors, every member of the staff group, and many viewers, customers and donors. In each case, the Salt + Light experience seems to be the same. There is a common recognition of mission and community. This is a result of a small and committed staff group, strong leadership with a marvellous personal touch, genuinely human atmosphere and excellence in the industry. But the consistent link that makes Salt + Light a success has been to remain true to its Catholic core. It was the key factor in my accepting the term position.

Gabriella Catolino, MDiv I have devoted myself to Salt + Light’s mission for the past 13 months, but I daresay the personal rewards for me far Director of Marketing & exceeded the workload. I will miss much, primarily the people. With my new paradigm beginning in November, I hope Development to devote myself to a new regime… family, physical activity and continued studies. Father Rosica’s love of scripture, and translation of the readings into practical day-to-day applications, has prompted me to spend more time each day with the Word of God and to savour this personal time. I hope a part-time job in London, Ontario will also be part of what awaits me on this new journey.

I will continue to invest myself in the work of Salt + Light from afar, and I invite you to join me in investing in this Canadian gem that is Your Catholic Channel of Hope through prayer, volunteer work, financial support and involvement in ongoing activities and events.

My final message is one of welcome to Daniel Torchia, who will take over the reins of the marketing, sales and promotion arms of the operation. I know you will enjoy his warmth, skill and leadership abilities. Arrivederci.

A WARM WELCOME Writing these few lines has been very difficult – it’s not easy to embark on a writing assignment knowing I will fall so short in expressing my emotions.

I feel an immense joy to be able to join the Salt + Light team in serving you, and all persons who have a relationship with Salt + Light Television. Salt + Light has a magical way of giving viewers a newfound appreciation for the television medium, a renewed hope in the future and affordable access, 24/7, to continuous Catholic formation. Having recently started to work with the Salt + Light team, I am inspired by the charity, devotion and skills of its members, and urge friends of the organization to get to know them better, whether through blogs, saltandlighttv.org, podcasts or our various products. Daniel Torchia Director of Marketing & The Holy Spirit, that great force which yearns to drive all of our inter-personal communication, is palpable at and Development through Salt + Light.

Cutting through the clutter. We need your help.

How can we be greater witnesses to our faith? Shape our youth? Help our friends and improve the world around us?

One of the most powerful answers is social communications: television, web, radio and social media. Clutter, noise and commercial interests often saturate our lives, leaving precious little time for spiritual growth. Backed by an increasing number of supporters, Salt + Light is gaining ground and giving an important presence to the Way, the Truth and the Life through modern media.
