A national Catholic publication is inviting high school students to share their faith experience through a writing contest.
Our Sunday Visitor is asking Catholic teens: "How has your Catholic faith helped you live out Matthew 25?"
Students should write a 250-word essay, answering the question above, and submit it to Our Sunday Visitor by Jan. 8, 2007. The staff will select the three best essays to be published in the Jan. 28 issue, which will feature an In Focus section dedicated to Catholic schools.
Authors of the published essays will receive a one-year subscription to Our Sunday Visitor, "Our Sunday Visitor's Encyclopedia of Church History" by Matthew Bunson and "When Did We See You, Lord?" by Bishop Robert Baker and Fr. Benedict Groeschel, CFR.
Essays must be submitted to Our Sunday Visitor Essay Contest, 200 Noll Plaza, Huntington, IN 46750, via fax to (260) 359-9117 or via e-mail to oursunvis@osv.com (please type "Essay Contest" in the subject line).
