Sorry gang that I wasn't able to get something posted sooner for this show. It was 'one of those weeks...'

Anyway, there were a few links that I said I would provide, so here they are:

• Defensor Veritatis excellent Catholic-Mormon Blog!
• Catholic:Under the Hood Fr. Seraphim Beshoner's Podcast Homepage
• From Advent to PresentationFr. Seraphim's Daily Podcast during Advent
• Disciples with Microphones
  
  Thanks again to everyone for listening and posting!

YES!!! In an effort to make life as easy as possible for sending in those voicemails, we (ok, Rob...) forked out the cash to setup a Gizmo Project phone number!

Got something to say? Give us a buzz anytime day or night and leave a voice mail with your thoughts.

Normal long distance charges will apply and the phone number is based out of Atlanta, GA USA, but if you live in the United States and have free long distance (like many cell phone plans) then the call is virtually free.

Alternately, you can download Gizmo to call us totally free using your computer. Our screen name is catholicmormon (as if you expected it to be anything else).

Hope to hear from you soon!!!

Oh yea, one more thing... we also just signed up with MySpace, so stop by and add youself there is you want! The link is myspace.com/catholicmormon.

Again, I'd like to thank everyone for their prayers as we stood by Alan and his Friend. It's hard to understand why things happen when they do. Our faith in God props us up when we feel weak. Plans known only to Him slowly become revealed to us over time. No one can say why things happen in the moment, but over time the answers become clear in most all cases.

Please pray for the soul of Alan's Friend as he has come home to Our Lord and witnessed the face of God.

OK, short and sweet on the show notes. We share a few thoughts as a result of the posts and emails for November's conversion cast.

Sarah has a few interesting observations on the types of responses and a little challenge of her own to all of us as we head into the Christmas Season.

Finally, below is an Amazon link to a Little People Nativity set that we bought our children last Christmas. We loved using this toy as a tool to teach our kids about this special time of year and wanted to bring it to your attention.


Thanks again for staying subscribed to the show and please email or send us an audio comment with your family traditions for this special time of year. ...oh yea, one more thing - Don't forget to VOTE for the CMP!

It's a new month, which can only mean two things! First, it's time for the CMP Conversion Cast... and secondly, it's time for every podcaster in the world to beg for your votes at Podcast Alley. Thanks for taking a minute to show your support for our show by voting!

We have three great conversion stories in this show from CMP listeners and want to thank everyone for taking the time to make it possible.

Please keep the support coming in for Alan and his friend - featured in the previous Roadcast and mark your calendar for November 14th and say a special prayer.

Finally, we have another important cause mentioned in this show - Remembering those impacted by Hurricane Katrina. There is an audio appeal in this show and here are some relevant links:

• Mission Hope Homepage
• Catholic World Mission
• Disciples with Microphones

Update - 11/17/2005

First, I'd like to thank everyone who stood by us in prayer as we prayed for Alan's friend. It is with a heavy heart that I pass along the news that his friend has been called home to Our Lord. Additional details will be be given in an upcoming podcast, but I know many of you are checking here frequently for any type of update.

Please keep the soul of Alan's friend in your prayers and feel free to share any additional thoughts on this blog entry.

This podcast is an appeal to all the CMP listeners, Catholic Podcasters and the general Christian community for your prayers. After listening to the emails I read in this roadcast, you have to agree with me that Alan's friend is a very special person - people like this are rare in the world today and he needs our help.

Please mark November 14th on your calendar and keep his friend in your prayers that day.

Additionally, please post a comment, thought, reaction or whatever else you feel compelled to do here on the blog for all to see.

OK, I think I may have screwed up the posting of this show a little. In iTunes, it appears that there are two Roadcast #2 shows...one is only the first 6:04 of the show and the second appears to be the full installment. The name of the good show is 'Roadcast #2 - Appeal to the CMP Community' Please not that this one does NOT have the word 'An' toward the beginning...oh boy...what a mess.

Anyone know how to remove a failed iTunes entry??? Please email me and I'll be happy to fix this - catholicmormon@gmail.com Thanks and sorry... --rob
