Conference in Rochester

From fellow Chestertonian Ellen:

Dear Chesterton friends,

The annual day-long Chesterton conference in Rochester, NY will be on the last Saturday of September, September 29th.  Topic:  History We Don’t Know : Lepanto, King Arthur, the Real England, Fatima.

Dale Ahlquist and Joseph Pearce usually speak, among others.  Admission is usually $10.

I will send more information as I know it, but I thought you might want to mark your calendars and think about going.

Information from last year's conference can be found at the ACS page.

UPDATE Ellen has sent an update with an informational flyer.

August Meeting

The July meeting of the Society went well.  In appreciation of his leadership and thespian skills, an active member and a corresponding member of the Society gave Fr. V. that "CHE-sterton" t-shirt you can see in the picture to the right.  This may become our official uniform for all meetings.  ¡Viva la revolución chestertoniana!

The August meeting will take place July 29 at 7:00 PM.  We'll be discussing Books I-IV of The Ballad of the White Horse.

GKC on the Air

A story with a US Chestertonian was recently broadcast on Vatican Radio

Vatican Radio's Veronica Scarisbrick recently caught up with Father Ian Boyd of the Congregation of the Priests of Saint Basil, President of the G.K.Chesterton Institute for Faith and Culture.
In this interview Father Boyd is asked in a special way to comment on Chesterton as a journalist, the ' rollicking journalist' this prolific author thought himself to be, as well as how his know- how of journalism might come across today in our media savvy world
