WASHINGTON (CNS) -- Using the theme "How the Good News Gets Around!" the Catholic Communication Campaign will conduct its annual collection the weekend of May 15-16 in most U.S. dioceses. World Communications Day 2004 also will be observed May 16 in the United States. The CCC is the media ministry arm of the U.S. bishops. It sponsors public service announcements in both English and Spanish, the radio series "Catholic Radio Weekly," the quarterly "View in the Pew" parish bulletin insert, and helps finance large-scale projects as the documentary "The Face: Jesus in Art" and a continuing series of TV specials aired by ABC, NBC and CBS for Sunday broadcast on faith issues in everyday life.
