Apostolic Letters, Encyclicals, and other official documents of the Catholic Church.

These are short papers addressing specific apologetics issues. These issues are either not addressed in, or are an amplification of, a topic discussed in the publications from the parish: "To Tell You The Whole Truth..." or "I'm Glad You Asked!". 

To Tell You the Whole Truth About the Church and the Holy Bible

This is a copyright publication of the pastor and parishioners of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Picayune. It is a bird's eye view of the history of the Church and the Bible, and short answers to a few of the most often received questions on the topic. We invite everyone to research history, the teachings of the Catholic Church and the Bible in order to arrive at the whole truth which has been revealed to us by God.

I'm Glad You Asked!

This is also a copyright publication of the parish. One day at Mass, Fr. John Noone asked the parishioners to jot down questions they had about the faith. Over the course of the next year, he addressed every question during an appropriate Homily. The booklet includes every one of those questions along with short, concise answers. These are real answers to real questions! Had a question about the Catholic Church lately? Chances are it's in here.
