In various places I mention 'we' as if there is more than one person involved in weCatholic so far. Well, in addition to the communion of saints, to whom I turn daily for advice, and who, in return, receive endless entertainment at my foolery, I work with two flesh and blood lads who are generous and daft enough to give liberally of their time toward this endeavor to transform the world.
Additionally, various products are in various states of development and some have folks generously working with us on them.
The reality is that my gifts lie in playing with concepts and ideas and brining some semblance of order from the chaos (many would debate this bit!). That's it. Because of my brain injury I do not handle details well at all. If my computer doesn't do it at the push of a button, I am readily baffled. Hence the need for monk(ie)s besides myself, who can serve as blessed implementation managers so that the completely incoherent and non-concrete might become tangible and real.
If you are interested in becoming a weCatholic monk(ie), please see our Internship postings.

What Happened to the Homilies?
Homilies now appear at my parish's site, both as audio and (when I remember) as text. I preach once a month, so you'll get to hear from the rest of the lads for the balance.

Help Us Spread the Word!
weCatholic's Vision:
Empower people to know and love our Catholic faith amidst the chaos of daily life.
Sounds simple enough. And with all things truly simple, amazingly deep, broad, and transcendent.
How can I help?
- Strive to live the Best Good Life yourself -- people will notice a vigor and purpose to you and inquire.
- Email this blog to your friends, Catholic or not!
- Subscribe to our RSS feed
- Apply for an Internship
- Consider being a venture donor.
Venture Donor?
Aye. Perhaps now is the time to provide a bit of the bigger picture...
We believe the Catholic marketplace is largely undefined, unknown, and untapped. When Catholic companies try and 'crack' it they mostly fail because their products look like they are dusted off from a lost 1964 warehouse. When Protestant companies try and 'crack' the Catholic market, their schlep may look shiny and new but it just isn't Catholic.
We are not sure exactly how to crack the Catholic market, but we are confident we can do a better job than has been done. We've sought larger amounts of investment capital since early 2004 and, while we continue to do so. In the meantime, we've developed a veritible ecosystem of lay spirituality and supporting products -- just waiting for the resources to be developed (including TV, movies, books, and a variety of creative products).
Some of these products are relatively inexpensive to get out there. Would you prayerfully consider a donation to weCatholic to help us make this possible?
We are looking for an initial investment of $5,000 to launch 3-4 initial products. This can come from many people pooling together or a few or one person -- any and all of whom share our vision.
To Donate:
We are working on setting up PayPal as a simple way to donate. Until then, please use our email as a means of donation via PayPal. lamontglen@mac.com .
