Catholic News Service The mission of Catholic News Service is the mission of the Church itself - to spread the Gospel through contemporary means of communication. Our mission is to perform this task by reporting the news which affects Catholics in their everyday lives. Some of that news is good and some is bad, but it is what readers need to know in order to work for salvation. They need to know that there are saints in the making in the Church today and they need to know that there are sinners too. Our mission is to report fully, fairly and freely about the involvement of the Church in the world today. Catholic News Service provides CNS in Brief and CNS Story of the Day each weekday and Movie Capsules on the public area of the CNS Internet site. |

The Movie Mom
One of my favorite sites is The Movie Mom. Our 13 year old son and I often check The Movie Mom’s reviews and recommendations before heading to the theatres or video rental store. Each film is reviewed for language, violence, drug use, sexual references, etc. Great collection of links to websites about media, parenting. And check her book, The Movie Mom’s Guide to Family Movies. |
