The homepage functions as a digital billboard with 2 components: the ‘ticker’ image (background) and the Flash movie/slide-show. The ‘ticker’ image can be a thematic message: Christmas, apostolic effort to help the poor in Kenya, etc. The Flash movie/slide-show can be a pictorial story of an experience, and event, ect.

We welcome your contribution to make the website alive with your own contribution. When we have new submission, we will post it for 30 days. Thus the homepage can be alive all the time with contributions across our community – you will never know what would await you when you visit CLC-USA.org; it is going to be very excited.

You can submit your artwork for the background and the Flash movie/slide-show on the homepage according to the following specification.

Background

The background is a thematic pictorial message. It can be contemplative to reflect the contemplative dimension of our Ignatian Spirituality; it can be a seasonal greeting, i.e. Christmas; or it can be for an initiative of action about to take place.
