NEW! – CATHOLIC FILMMAKERS’ SHOWCASE
Friday & Saturday, 8-10 pm
A new event at Congress 2007 is the Catholic Filmmakers' Showcase, which features two nights of screenings. Fr. Ron Schmidt, SJ is Master of Ceremonies for the event. Producers and directors are on hand to meet with audience members after the screenings. This is a chance to see what’s being done by some of Hollywood’s Catholic faith community.

FROM THE YOUTH DAY COORDINATOR
Mike Norman, Youth Day Coordinator, announces the Youth Day 2007 theme, "LOL - Live Out Love." Youth Day is a perfect place for young people and adults alike to stand up and be affirmed in how they Live Out Love. The readings for the day are Esther 12:14-16, 23-25 and Matthew 7:7-12. These words give us the foundation for our theme and our exciting day!

SACRED SPACE
In 2007 -- returning for its fourth year -- Sacred Space provides a respite from the day’s events; enter a space dedicated to facilitating a sense of peaceful reflection and spiritual rejuvenation. Our Sacred Space offers Eucharistic Adoration in the Chapel, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, a labyrinth, and meditative music and inspirational art, and a new home -- moving from Hall E to the third level of the Convention Center.
