Tito Edwards is happily married and manages Catholic websites for the new evangelization that Pope John Paul II and then Cardinal Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, has asked for in the third millennium. After a lifetime of living a nominal Catholic life, he reverted completely to his childhood faith that began on the eve of the funeral of Pope John Paul II. He manages ThePulp.it and The American Catholic.

Managing Editors

Liesl is a single Catholic woman who hails from the great state of Ohio, but now resides in the just-as-great state of Virginia. She graduated from Miami University in Ohio with a B.S. in Chemistry and a minor in English Literature in 2009 and from The George Washington University with a M.Sc. in Chemistry in 2011. She spends her days working for the government, and her evenings figuring out what to cook for dinner. In her free time, she enjoys music, running, thrifting, baking, cheering on the Washington Nationals and Ohio State Buckeyes, singing about being sixteen going on seventeen, and making people laugh. You can find her at her blog The Spiritual Workout or on twitter @LieslChirps.

Jean Elizabeth Seah is a Singaporean who read law in Brisbane, ran away to a convent in Perth, plunged into liberal arts in Sydney, sojourned in Melbourne and returned to Brisbane in search of sufficient sunshine. The road is narrow and the path ahead is foggy, but she knows that as long as you hold firmly onto Our Lady’s hand, you’ll make it through! She writes for Aleteia, besides blogging at The Sign of the Cross and Thanks to Catholicism.
