Defending Truth and Tradition in the Roman Catholic Church

Why I’m Catholic

November 3rd, 2011, Promulgated by b a

Our Sunday Visitor is running a story about the website whimcatholic.com.  What’s really interesting for local Catholic Radio fans is that this site was created by the Station of the Cross’ Steve Lawson.

Lawson was a fairly recent revert to the faith when he decided he wanted to “share the joy” of Catholicism with others. He reached out to some friends on Facebook, created a core team and, in January, launched what today has become a kind of clearinghouse of conversion stories drawing around 3,000 hits a week. So far, the website has had more than 78,000 visits from more than 49,500 visitors in 178 countries. 

The core team includes his wife, Lauren, and a couple of friends who handle “vision” and design, all of whom live in Buffalo, N.Y.

As Fr Moleski once said, “we don’t call him Awesome Lawson for nothing”.
