NEW BERLIN, WI (February 19, 2013) - Liturgical Publications Inc (LPi) is sponsoring the second annual Catholic Parish Website of the Year Contest. In conjunction with CatholicTechTalk.com, LPi wants to recognize the often unsung heroes who make sure the parish website is actively engaging and informing its visitors on the Internet. Websites will be judged based on exceptional quality of content, design and overall visual appeal, ease of navigation, use of technology and social media, and utilization of search optimization.

�We have some notable judges this year who are passionate about helping churches effectively use new media to reach their members,� said Clare Zajicek, Marketing Content Specialist at LPi and the coordinator of the contest. �It�s exciting to see parishes use technology to communicate with their parishioners, and I�m glad we can recognize them for that important effort.�

The judges of the contest include Domenico Bettinelli, Creative Director for Pilot New Media in Boston, Dr. Caroline Cerveny, SSJ-TOSF, president of Interactive Connections, and Fr. Claude Burns, aka Fr. Pontifex, whose blog embraces and encourages Catholics to use different types of media to reach people with the message of Christ.

The top three winners will receive a plaque for their parish office, and the first place winner will receive a $500.00 donation from LPi. Last year�s winners were Holy Name of Jesus in Wayzata, MN; Saint Aloysius in Jackson, NJ; and Espiritu Santo in Safety Harbor, FL. They are excellent examples of what parish websites can aspire to.

The contest is open to all Catholic parishes in the USA. To nominate a website go to CatholicTechTalk.com/contests.
