About the cyberCatholics.com Project
cyberCatholics.com is the venture of two people, Fr. Christopher Decker and Joshua LeBlanc. Fr. Chris and Josh began cyberCatholics.com as a way to combine their talents of multimedia and evangelization. The cyberCatholics.com project was officially launched on December 8, 2000, the feast of the Immaculate Conception. cyberCatholics.com was initally launched to be a meeting place for Catholic seminarians and clergy to gather and exchange ideas. As it turns out, the Lord had very different plans for the project. After moving from server to server because of the site constantly being blocked by various groups due to sharing servers with other site that had morally objectionable content, cyberCatholics purchased its own server in October of 2007. This purchasing has enabled cyberCatholics.com to offer 100% Catholic webhosting that is both free of donations to planned parenthood, as we use completely open-source software, and completely free of pornography.

Our Mission
The mission of cyberCatholics.com is simply to put into practice the call of Pope John Paul II to use the Internet as an effective tool for evangelization. Many secular web-hosting companies also offer their services to adult sites as well as other sites that Catholics should find morally objectionable. With cyberCatholics.com webhosting, you can sleep easily knowing that you are not supporting any of these causes.
