Catholic Roads…
The Holy Highway Through the Carolinas
Faith • Food • Fellowship • Cartoons with a Soul
It’s cool to be Catholic.
And in the Carolinas… it’s Carolina Catholic Cool.
Welcome to Catholic Roads, where E.B., Opa, and the crew are traveling the Holy Highway—a road that starts right here and, if you stay on it long enough, leads all the way to heaven.
Shrines! Wines! And Interesting People!
On The Holy Highway … In The Carolinas!
The Eucharistic Trail Starts Here
From Raleigh to Charlotte to Charleston…
Three cities.
Three Cathedrals.
Three dioceses.
One growing, vibrant, joy-filled Catholic Church across the Carolinas.
There’s a real brotherhood—and sisterhood—of believers here. And we’re hitting the road to experience it all.
We call it the Eucharistic Trail.
And you’re invited to come along.
What We’re Doing (Besides Having a Good Time)
We’re traveling from the mountains to the sea…
visiting parishes, meeting people, exploring landmarks, and discovering what makes Catholic life in the Carolinas so alive.
And everywhere we go—we bring it back to you.
Caricatures & Cartoons
We don’t just meet people… we draw them.
Priests, parishioners, backyard chefs, and unforgettable characters—captured in Opa-style caricatures and cartoons that celebrate the joy of the journey.Stories Worth Telling
Real places. Real people.
With a little Carolina storytelling flair mixed in.
(Translation: You’ll laugh… and you might recognize somebody you know.)Great Food on the Road
Parish kitchens. Potlucks. Hidden gems.
If it’s good, we’re eating it—and telling you where to find it.Recipes for Your Home or Backyard
We bring the road home.
Simple, bold, and sometimes “Bubba-approved” recipes you can try in your own kitchen, on your porch, or out back by the grill.
At the Heart of It All… Jesus
This isn’t just about travel.
This is about encounter.
We pray for the parishes we visit.
We celebrate the Eucharist.
We lift up the people we meet.
Because at the center of every mile…
every story…
every sketch…
…is Jesus.
Enjoy Good, Catholic Humor…
Between our hard working Knights of Columbus and the routines of daily, family life… there’s always something happening in Catholic life that invites a laugh or two. And Opa is never far away with his iPad and pen.
Knight Life
The Knights are always busy distributing the proceeds from their last fundraiser, working the current fundraiser, and planning the next one.
Church Life
Also sometimes known as Family Life, there’s never a dull moment when a man and a women are trying to learn how to become one—while raising kids too!
Pilgrimage Meets Vacation…
Plenty of folks come to the Carolinas for vacation!!!
But we’re here to say something a little different:
Come for a PILGRIMAGE…
Visit beautiful Catholic churches…
Join us at Mass…
Meet the people…
Stay for the food…
Laugh at our cartoons…
Try the recipes we publish..
And take something home that lasts longer than a weekend!
The Road Is Open!
The Holy Highway goes everywhere.
Anybody can get on it.
Anybody can follow it.
And no matter where you start…
it always leads forward.
So get out there and see the world...
Start in the Carolinas… with your Rosaries, of course!
It’s cool to be Catholic…
Especially in the Carolinas!
