This is the third of a 3 part series of podcasts featuring radio drama -style scripts involving Moses in “what if” situations. They were written by Bob Snook and were fun for the students to produce. In this episode Moses is approached by two book pitchmen to sell his books from the Bible. You’re sure to recognize some of those “informercial” phrases as these two try to get Moses to agree to a book deal. What do you think he would say? Listen and find out!
Special thanks to the guys from the Podcasting elective class for putting in the extra time to get this one done. You might also enjoy our “Podcasting Behind the Scenes” video also posted in our PODCASTS section.
Have a great summer!

This is the second of a 3 part series of podcasts featuring radio drama -style scripts involving Moses in “what if” situations. They were written by Bob Snook and were fun for the students to produce. In this episode Moses asks his brother Aaron to go tell Pharaoh to “let his people go” with Moses prompting Aaron by phone. Only it doesn’t go exactly as planned.
One last “Moses” episode is currently being recorded and production will be completed shortly, possibly even this week. Y0u might also enjoy our “Podcasting Behind the Scenes” video also posted in our PODCASTS section.
God Bless!

OLM School was founded in 1927 and still going strong, despite the economic challenges facing our community. Across the U.S., Catholic schools are celebrating Catholic Schools Week and its theme “A+ for America”. Be sure to check our calendar for CSW events as we give thanks for the blessings of Catholic Education.
Videos of the Knights of Columbus presentation of the colors and Supervisor John Pedrozo’s proclamation from Merced County are posted here. More videos (with safety issues in mind) may be posted soon.
