New Catholic Travel Series Debuts on EWTN February 28, 2010
Philadelphia, PA (February 9, 2010) -- This February 28th a new travel television series with a Catholic focus debuts on EWTN
(Eternal Word Televison Network). The Faithful Traveler™ television series captures the faith, fun and excitement of Catholic travel. The
show’s host, Diana von Glahn, takes you on a fun and faith-filled tour of some of the most amazing churches, shrines, and places of pilgrimage
throughout the United States!
“You don’t have to travel all the way to Europe and beyond to experience breathtaking churches and shrines,” says Diana von Glahn. “We
have so many Catholic treasures right here in the U.S. and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to bring these glorious sites into people’s homes
and hearts!” Diana is not only the host of the series, she is also the writer, editor and co-creater with her husband David. A cradle Catholic
with deep religious roots from her Mexican/American heritage, von Glahn presents the history, architecture and religious significance of each site
in a fast-paced show that will leave viewers thirsty for more.
The first season of The Faithful Traveler™ focuses on the East Coast with travel destinations in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
and Maryland. Viewers will walk along with Diana von Glahn as she travels to such majestic sites as St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York, NY, the
Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark, NJ, the National Shrine of St. John Neumann in Philadelphia, PA , the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth
Ann Seton, in Emmitsburg, Maryland, and many more!
Shot in high definition, the series is not only a treat for the eyes but also for the ears: it features the music of some of today’s most
talented musicians, including Sarah Bauer, Nichole Akhoury Lanthier, Popple, John Grassadonia, Rise, Isabel Rivera, Robby Alleman, Christine Wittman,
