In response to Pope Benedict XVI’s call for a new evangelization, the Sophia Institute Press—the publishing arm of Holy Spirit College in Atlanta, Georgia and Thomas More College in Merrimack, New Hampshire—has acquired the popular internet site Catholic Exchange. 

Gareth Genner, President of Holy Spirit College, who serves as Chairman of the Board of Sophia Institute Press, said: “This is the next step in the creation of a multi-platform media company dedicated to the new evangelization.  We expect great things from the synergy of the Press and Catholic Exchange.”

Thomas More College President William Fahey told the Cardinal Newman Society  that Sophia is embracing new technology.  ”I believe new technology can compliment the older modes of communication as a way of promoting the new evangelization,” he said.

Sophia Institute Press is a publisher of Catholic books, from Catholic classics to contemporary fiction over the last forty years.  The Press became the publishing arm of Holy Spirit College and Thomas More College as of April 13, 2011.    
 
Every weekday CatholicExchange.com features stories from the contemporary press and timely articles, columns, blog posts, and podcasts on how the message of Jesus Christ addresses the crucial problems of everyday life and fulfills the deepest desires of the human heart.    
 
Working together, Sophia Institute Press and Catholic Exchange will bring an enriched menu of traditional and new media content to Catholics looking for practical help and inspiration.
 
Gareth Genner, President of Holy Spirit College, serves as Chairman of the Board of Sophia Institute Press, while Thomas More College President William Fahey oversees the Press’s day-to-day operations as its President and Publisher.  Sophia’s Board of Directors is comprised of an equal number of representatives from each college.
