DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL COMMUNICATIONS (DEPSOCOM) HO DIOCESE
Director: Rev. Fr. Samuel Edem Eco Kornu
The mission of the Holy Catholic Church is to evangelize. Decree on The Media of Social Communications, Inter Mirifica, December 4, 1963. No. 1, 2 and 3 are of the view that “Among the wonderful technological discoveries which men of talent, especially in the present era, have made with God's help, the Church welcomes and promotes with special interest those which have a most direct relation to men's minds and which have uncovered new avenues of communicating most readily news, views and teachings of every sort. The most important of these inventions are those media which, such as the press, movies, the radio, television and the like, can, of their very nature, reach and influence, not only individuals, but the very masses and the whole of human society, and thus can rightly be called the media of social communication.
