Thank You!
The article is the proverbial sight for sore eyes.
It’s so good that i downloaded it. It’s dripping with good stuff about the spreading of solid Catholic Truth…and Beauty. Goiing to have a poke around at the ICC site to see more.

Small point but, the fact that Fr Carnazzo is an Eastern Rite priest hammers home the truth that the Catholic Church is truly “Catholic”, not just in name.

For a change, even the word “welcoming” has a good meaning. 🙂
 
This looks like a very dynamic organization that can really help Catholics to be inspired in their faith experience! My prayers are definitely with it, and I hope more programs like this can become the norm in the Church. We really need more things like this to help people be fruitful in their Catholicism.

May God bless you all! 🙂
 
The article notes that many of the online lectures come from professors from Christendom,one of the schools noted in the Newman Guide. The director of the Institute is a Christendom Graduate. Here’s an endorsement and some information from the article:

“As a revert to the Catholic Church, I began attending classes at the ICC in 2010. The first thing that attracted me to the institute was the obvious unabashed love and enthusiasm for the traditional teachings of the Church by its director, now-Father Carnazzo. Through the excellent lecturers, many of whom are from Christendom College, I learned about history, philosophy, theology and Scripture through the lens of a faithful Catholic worldview. Moreover, during the summer of 2015, I was privileged to go on a pilgrimage to Israel with the institute, which turned out to be a life-changing experience for me.”

Priests see the good work of the apostolate, as well.

“The ICC is what we might call a full-service apostolate. It provides excellent teaching, as well as opportunities to encounter the beauty of the Church’s liturgy and sacred art. In the course of all this, the ICC builds up little communities of faith where people can grow in charity and service,” said Father Paul Scalia, episcopal vicar for clergy for the Diocese of Arlington."

I’m a member and have been for almost a year.
These are the type of programs that can save our Church especially if you can get young interested. At the very least preservation of Catholic Culture which is the cornerstone of a now dying Western Civilation will be preserved.
By the Young I mean Young adults who historically have returned to the Church in their late 20’s. who no longer do as they have succumbed to the overwhelming negative messaging regarding organized religion.
The wounds inflicted by the Church have largely been self inflicted and magnified by our enemies.
We have the intellectual answers that if we were allowed to get it out would resonate with a truth starved generation.
