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.

The Church dedicates June to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Sacred Heart embodies Jesus’s humanity and divinity: His unquenchable burning love for each us and His unfathomable divine mercy expressed through the perfect offering of his redemptive sacrifice. In contrast to our culture that increasingly celebrates human pride and self-love, the Sacred Heart is a profound reminder of God’s humility and self-giving love. During the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we urge you to remember that Jesus came to us in human form humbling Himself for our sake. Pray daily the Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, pray the Chaplet of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, or read more about the truth, beauty, and love found in the Sacred Heart. Carolina Catholic Professionals is pleased to make available at no charge a limited number of copies of a recently published book: Love Him Ever More: a nine-day personal retreat with the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Father Joe Laramie published by Ave Maria Press. To order a copy, please call or text 843 670 1350

Sunday June 25th, 2023 
Ms. Rosa's Kitchen Project Matthew 25:45 Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.
Thanks be to God, during four days over the first weekend in May we served our sister in Christ, Ms. Rosa. Thanks to the generous contributions, prayers, and gracious goodwill of many souls as well as support from Buck Lumber, Plugs Appliance, and Lowes Home Improvement, we reinforced and rebuilt Ms. Rosa’s buckling floor and rebuilt her kitchen. A volunteer team of skilled craftsmen traveled from upstate South Carolina, Maryland, and Massachusetts to serve Ms. Rosa.
Ms. Rosa was born in 1926 in rural Berkeley County, South Carolina and now lives in the Union Heights Neighborhood of North Charleston. She is an active member of New Bethel Reformed Episcopal Church where she has worshipped for sixty-seven years. The matriarch for her community, she sells candy, chips, and soft drinks to the neighborhood children since there are no stores for such things within a safe walk for the children and she regularly checks on and cares for her ‘elderly’ neighbors.
Moments before she arrived to see her new kitchen a rainbow formed over her home. Carolina Catholic Professionals is honored to serve God by serving others.

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
