iCat is meant to be a place where we can meet and share ideas about how Catholics can express their faith through social networking. At iCat, you'll hear from a panel of informed speakers and also get to meet the WYD Madrid11 international social networks team. Rafa Rubio (Spain) Prior to becoming the director of the Department of Communication of World Youth Day, he was responsible for the social networks of WYD. He is a father of three daughters and is passionate about communication in the Internet age. @rafarubio Sr. Kristen Gardner (USA) Sr. Kristen is a young religious of the Siervas del Hogar de la Madre community, and is the webmaster of the WYD website, madrid11.com, in collaboration with volunteers from all over the world. Fr. Roderick Vonhogen (The Netherlands) The initiation of Fr. Roderick into new media of communication began while he was reporting from St. Peter's Basilica following the death of Blessed John Paul II, and then from the conclave that elected John Paul II's successor, Pope Benedict XVI. He is the founder and executive director of what is currently Star Quest Production Network, which specializes in the production of audio and video programs faithful to the teachings of the Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Roman Catholic Church. http://roderickvonhogen.com/ @FatherRoderick Jo-Anne Rowney (UK) She currently works in the Press Office of the Diocese of Westminster to promote social communication media in the diocese, and works on social strategy for media, researching for ways to participate and to develop manners in which the Church uses social communication media. @JoAnneRowney
