Carolina Catholic Professionals
Professional and business individuals sharing the Good News of the Gospel through word and works. |
Welcome
Carolina Catholic Professionals is a membership organization associated with Lucis Via Charities, Inc., a Charleston-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
We serve to share the Good News of the Gospel through word and works by defending the Magisterium of the Catholic Church, providing a spiritual refuge for Catholic Laity and Christian believers, encouraging a rigorous intellectual and Godly examination of ideas, and providing Christ-informed service and charity to the community.
Our motto is Humanitas Christi: Christ’s People. We are joined in communion through our shared Catholic Christian faith and our calling to bear witness to the Gospel in the way we live our lives. We are Christ’s people encountering the world.

Catholic Radio In South Carolina NEEDS OUR HELP NOW Headquartered in Greer, South Carolina, Catholic Radio in South Carolina was hit hard by the same storm that devastated parts of the upstate, North Carolina, and Tennessee. The loss of power and internet forced the network off the air. Truncated programming is back in the Lowcountry, but capacity is limited. At this time, programming is still unavailable in the upstate. With its small nonprofit operating budget, Catholic Radio in South Carolina lacks the infrastructure that commercial stations have to quickly overcome such a catastrophic event. Catholic Radio in South Carolina has been forced by the circumstances to indefinitely postpone its annual Radiothon, which is its primary means of fundraising. Many Catholics are generously offering their charity to provide water, food, clothing, and shelter to the countless souls whose lives have been wrecked by the storm and its aftermath. In this light, it may seem less urgent to ask for help for our state’s Catholic radio network. However, without your support Catholic Radio in South Carolina risks being stretched to the breaking point. Our world today is gripped by the effects of a spiritual storm no less devastating to souls. Catholic Radio in South Carolina delivers the Gospel of Jesus Christ to souls twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. It gives the water that Jesus described to the woman at the well; “the water I shall give will become a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:14) Dear Catholic brothers and sisters in the Lowcountry, without pause, please prayerfully consider supporting the always critical evangelical and educational work of Catholic Radio in South Carolina. You can donate securely online HERE OR Mail your check to: Catholic Radio in SC P.O. Box 905 Greer, SC 29652 Thank you for your prayerful consideration. | 2024 Annual Fall Dinner Sister Margaret Kerry, fspDaughters of Saint PaulThe Art of Evangelization: Sharing the Gospel with the WorldProceeds will support Catholic Radio in South Carolina and Evangelization in the Lowcountry

To survive in today's secularized world, Catholics must be courageous in professing their faith. They must be courageous in living their faith. Today's world, surely our American world, needs courageous Catholics. - Fr. John A. Hardon
