SAN DIEGO, Aug. 2, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Catholic Answers, the largest lay-run Catholic apologetics organization in the nation, is proud to announce the addition of dynamic chastity speaker Leah Darrow to its staff.

Leah was introduced to the public through her appearances on the popular television program America's Next Top Model.

Originally, Leah didn't take her Catholic faith seriously. That suddenly changed when, in a dramatic moment at a photo shoot, God showed her the state of her soul and how it had been warped by the secular modeling industry. This extraordinary grace gave her the courage to change every aspect of her life: her friends, her beliefs, her clothes, and her opinion of the world and of herself.

Since then, Leah has been speaking to young people across the country and educating them on the topic of chastity. She has also appeared on Catholic television programs like Life On The Rock and Faith and Culture.

"All of us at Catholic Answers are very excited about Leah Darrow coming on-board," said Tim Staples, Director of Apologetics and Evangelization at Catholic Answers. "Leah brings an enormous amount of talent and energy, along with a true passion for our Lord. If you haven't heard her speak yet, you are in for an amazing message of conversion and chastity!"

Catholic Answers is one of the nation's largest lay-run apostolates dedicated to helping Catholics become better Catholics, bringing former Catholics "home," and leading non-Catholics into the fullness of the faith.
