Help Spread the Word about ThePulp.it – Chief Editor, ThePulp.it

Dear ThePulp.it Readers,

 

It is my great pleasure to create these twice daily posts for you (Monday through Friday) on everything and anything affecting us as Catholics and those interested and curious about the Catholic faith.  This is a labor of love and I am constantly improving the content and the look of the website itself to evangelize as many people as possible.  With your input, we have all improved what is posted (and not posted) for each EDITION.

 

What else can ThePulp.it’s readership do you say?  You all can spread the word!

 

How?  By emailing your friends a link toThePulp.it.

 

Yes, just by simply emailing a link toThePulp.it, you are saving me from asking for donations.  This apostolate will forgo donations for the foreseeable future so all you will endure is this particular post and some non-intrusive advertisements in the sidebar.

 

So please, if you have family, friends, or acquaintances that would be interested in reading up on current events, opinion, catechesis, news, and much more on Catholicism, send them a link to ThePulp.it.

 

In Jesus, Mary, & Joseph,

 

Tito
