Bridges and Boundaries

Readers may recall that in the past this column has reported on the work of TOBET, the Theology of the Body Evangelization Team, headquartered in Texas (www.tobet.org). Monica Ashour, the creative and indefatigable advocate of Pope John Paul II’s teachings on the theology of the body, has been the force behind the successful – and now international – promulgation of TOBET’s outreach. 

As an offshoot of TOBET, Ms. Ashour and her colleague Mark Salvia have co-founded an organization called EveryBody International (EBI) whose mission statement is: “to provide compelling educational resources to renew the culture through human formation based on the truth of God’s design for the human body which shows forth the True, the Good, and the Beautiful”.

EBI has launched what many readers will concur is an exciting initiative addressing the critical need for faith-based educational environments that are also safe for children.
