Published: 2005-12-05

WASHINGTON (CNS) -- The U.S. bishops' Catholic Communication Campaign has produced a special 11-part Advent reflection series that it is distributing on its streaming video page on the Web. Each installment features a different bishop reflecting on various aspects of the season, focusing on each week of Advent, as well as most of the major liturgical feasts and holy days of this time of year. The series, which began on Thanksgiving, will continue through Jan. 8, the feast of the Baptism of the Lord. The CCC also unveiled a new name and logo for its streaming video project -- CCC-TV. It is located on the Web at http://www.ccc-tv.com. Visitors can view the segments using either Real Player or Windows Media technologies. In a Nov. 29 statement, the campaign's production coordinator, Ken Stockard, said the name change acknowledges the growing trend of convergence in communications technology.
