Catholic Family News Announces E-Edition Available

Starting with the August 2018 edition, Catholic Family News will now offer an “E-Edition only” subscription option. 

I am delighted to announce that Catholic Family News is moving into the digital age and making available an electronic edition of the paper.  Our mission is to disseminate the truth about the Catholic Faith and the crisis in the Church to as many people as possible.  Technology, like any medium, is capable of misuse, but in the final analysis it is simply a tool which can and should be used to disseminate the truth.  Growing numbers of people, and particularly the young, find information and analysis electronically.  Given the erroneous and harmful nature of much of what they find, it is more important than ever that the Catholic message reach them.  Therefore, starting with the August 2018 issue, an electronic version will be available for all subscribers.  A regular subscription will entitle you both to access the electronic version of the paper (through Tecnavia, either online or on mobile devices such as Kindles and iPhones) and a copy of the paper mailed to your door.  If you like reading articles electronically, you will receive access to the latest issue and back issues (as we begin adding them to the online archive) at no extra cost.  If you prefer reading the old-fashioned way with the paper in your hand, nothing will change and you can expect your copy of CFN in your mailbox as usual.  Starting this month, if you only want to read the blockbuster articles in Catholic Family News electronically, you can choose an “E-Edition only” subscription at a reduced rate, one that reflects cost savings from not printing and mailing a paper copy.

For the next two months (August and September), a regular subscription – including both a paper and access to the E-Edition – will be available for $32.00 (for U.S. delivery), instead of the normal $42.00. The E-Edition by itself will be available for $23.00, regardless of location.  Thus, for subscribers outside the U.S. the “E-Edition only” option will result in a more significant savings due to the greater cost savings on mailing the paper.

If you already have a paid subscription, you now have access to the E-Edition at no additional cost.  When the time comes to renew your subscription, you can choose to renew for a regular (paper and E-Edition) or “E-Edition only” subscription.  In future months, you will not have to wait for the paper to reach your home but you can start reading it as soon as the issue is published.   

If you are a current subscriber and wish to go directly to the Tecnavia website to authenticate your subscription and access the E-Edition, click this button. (You need to enter your name and the house number and country where you receive your paper to authenticate your subscription).
