I just signed up to be media missionary for EWTN. I was wondering if there are any others out there! I a mvery excited about this. I am going to try to get EWTN in the Omaha area on 24/7 wiht basic cable. If there are any other Media missionaries out there that would like to ping idea off each other please chime in! We can make this work if we all work together! God Bless!
 
I’m a EWTN media missionary. We have EWTN 24 hours here. I called the cable company a couple of years ago, after Mother Angelica mentioning it on air and told them it was free so should be offered on basic cable. It didn’t take much to get it.

I take some program schedules when I leave the house and leave a few where I go. 😃
 
Well, I am not a Media Missionary, but I am encouraged to see your initial response to it, for I’m just beginning to consider it myself.

I don’t have EWTN on TV here. I do receive it via satellite radio when I drive, and so my big interest is trying to see about how to start a Catholic radio station in my area. I’ve heard advertisements about how even those with no broadcasting experience have done this.

…but since it seems quite easy to call the cable company as mentioned in the replies, I’ll pray about considering that, also.

I hope your efforts are successful, and I look forward to hearing of your progress! God bless. 🙂

All you have to do is go to ewtnmissionaries.com/index1.asp?target_page=register_form.asp and fill in the info. They will send you a package describing everything you need to know. Then, if you feel that you are being called ot fill this role you send in or go online to order your missionary supplies. You are not obligated to accept the mission just by requesting the materal from the above site. I plan on distributing to the two local Catholic Book Stores in town too! Good luck and please pray for all us EWTN Media Missionaries!

If you feel called, then go for it. I’m sure someone here at Catholic Answers can give you suggestions. Also, you might try IHradio.org. He started without broadcasting experience I believe. We need more catholic radio. I want more than one station when traveling. I’ll pray you’re led to do God’s will!

That’s waht I am talking about! We need to feed off each other to make this a great Evangelization!
 
Who exactly do you contact at your Cable company? i.e, what’s his or her title?

I just moved to this area a short while ago and it’s only on for about eight hours a day (hours when most people are working). From the little I’ve able to find out, a small group of people fought a two year running battle to get that much. I’m in the NY, Metro area so maybe there’s a little cultural resistance going on- I don’t know, but ten minutes from here in Jersey they’ve got it 24/7. It seems to be time restricted in a very limited area and pretty random so maybe the resistance is coming from one individual in one small jurisdiction.

The people who live here are about 3/4 Catholic and 1/4 Jewish, yet 2/3 of the day the channel has pretty off the wall televangelist type programing. There are about 15 unused channels too!

If you sign up as a media missionary the package you recieve has the format and very valuable info on how you should go about pursuing this. I thing it is the General Manage that you want to contact. Please look into the media missionary if you plan on contacting him. If you decide to contact him/her prior, remember to first sincerely thank them for what they are providing and then ask them about additional coverage. Remember, you are going in there as an image of hte Catholic faith and your actions and words will reflect directly on his/her image of our great faith! I will pray for you no matter what way you take. The media missionary package also has ways to talk to them or send them letters. I highly encourage you to look into it first. God Bless!
 
I just want to encourage everyone who is using his or her talents for God. Way to go! :tiphat:
 
You mean I can’t threaten them?? (just kidding)

I did a little more checking and every other neighborhood within about 30 miles has it 24/7 which is kind of odd. The area that doesn’t (mine) is tiny-about 3 miles in either direction. We have a good EWTN fan priest at my parish so I’ll speak to him about it too.

Thanks!
