Pauline Sister Rose Pacatte, a contributing film reviewer and essayist for The Tidings, was recently honored with several awards for her articles in The Tidings and the book "Lights, Camera…Faith! A Movie Lover's Guide to Scripture."

At the 2004 Angel Awards, Sister Pacatte received three Silver Angel honors for her 2003 film essays that appeared in The Tidings, her "Eye on Entertainment" column in St. Anthony Messenger Press, and (with Father Peter Malone) the Cycle C edition of "Lights, Camera…Faith!".

The Angel Awards are presented annually by Excellence in Media, an organization dedicated to the promotion of quality family oriented programming in all facets of communication. Gold Angel honors went to several feature films and television shows --- among them, "Everybody Loves Raymond," "Joan of Arcadia," "Whale Rider," "Bend It Like Bekham" and "Finding Nemo."

"The recipients of the Gold and Silver Angels are people in any form of the media who have successfully contributed to the advancement of quality in life without the unnecessary need for violence, profanity and sexual content to sell to their audience," said a statement from the 27-year-old organization.
