RA & SQPN at Steubenville’s Media and Faith Conference

By Greg Willits • Feb 21st, 2008 • Category: Welcome to Rosary Army

Rosary Army founders Greg and Jennifer Willits will be presenting the closing talk at the Media and Faith Conference at the Franciscan University of Steubenville in Steubenville, Ohio to be held April 4th and 5th.

The event is open to the public (registration required) and will be a great opportunity for Rosary Army soldiers and SQPN followers to get together for a weekend of faith and learning about media.

The university has provided additional information, including a schedule and full list of speakers at a website for the event which you can access via this link.

Greg and Jennifer will also be participating in a roundtable panel about podcasting along with Fr. Seraphim Beshoner (Catholic Under the Hood Podcast) and Fr. Roderick Vonhogen (SQPN). George Leite, another SQPN podcaster and winner of the 2007 Podcast Award for Best Podsafe Music Podcast for his Catholic Rockers Podcast, will also be speaking that weekend.

Fr. Roderick will be presenting the opening talk on Friday evening, April 4th.

There will also be a Meet and Greet event at the Heavenly Grounds coffee house from 3 to 5 PM on April 5th. Heavenly Grounds is located just off of University Boulevard, in front of the university. Click here for a map to Heavenly Grounds (the coffee house is found at #23).

If you’re within driving distance, it’s sure to be a wonderful conference and a great opportunity to socialize with other RA Soldiers. We hope to see you in Steubenville!

    I so have to talk my wife into letting me go! Two of my cousins are students at Stubie, which means I’d have a free place to stay! I’ve been listening to Greg and Jennifer since Greg’s first episode (which didn’t sound all that pretty). I found out about Podcasting from a link to Jayson Franklin’s Catholic Cast! I’ve been hooked ever since. My wife and I have since started a Catholic Podcast of our own. Sadly Sarah and Rob from the “Catholic Mormon Podcast” (CMP) haven’t recorded in over almost two years. And Jayson Franklin even longer. Perhaps I’ll e-mail them and let them know about this quickly approaching event!

    Hope to see you guys there.

    God Bless,

    P.s. Are any of the guys from “Hands & Feet” coming up?

    Okay, so the cost of registration is too high for my blood, but I might be able to make it to the coffee house… : )

    Okay, so I am registered for the conference, but they have informed me that the closing dinner of the conference and final talk by Jennifer and Greg is full, because of the size of the room and their agreement with the caterers : ( That was one of the things I was most looking forward to. It could be a blessing in disguise who knows. This is why I try not to get bummed when things don’t go “my” way.

    Well, it turned out that I did indeed get to go to the dinner and closing talk. Greg and Jennifer did such a great job. It was cool hangin’ out with everyone and meeting new friends. I even got to spend some time in Adoration. It was a great weekend.
