Rosary Elvis Presley
inspiration to create the first short movie to get a rosary came from ... Elvis Presley. At the end of April 2008 in Madrid, one of the campus group of students heard the song on the radio The Miracle of Rosary . It allows young people began to ask themselves a question: If Elvis, a Protestant, he sang on the Rosary, is why we Catholics, we do something for her?
reply came within a few dni.Tak was May Feelings, in which young people presented 50 reasons to pick up the rosary. - The best in this clip is that it is positive - highlights prof. Diego Contreras, Dean of the Faculty of Social Communications - Institutional Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome. - Usually it is easier to say, why not do something, why someone is not. Here, the arguments offered fifty "yes." And with a smile
On the streets of Madrid
May Feelings success. - Within a few days we began receiving messages from all over the world, the U.S. asked us a video presented at schools and universities, the signals also came from Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Spain, France and England - says Miguel Rodriguez, one of the film-makers. It has mobilized students to create a year later second part, in which 50 young people in T-shirts with the inscription I pray the Rosary , marching through the streets of Madrid. The message was simple: not only to pray the rosary, but we have the courage talk about it publicly.
third edition May Feelings appeared in the Year of the Priest, and his motto was: We already know that we are not alone. Now they must learn that they are not alone. Almost three-minute film had a dual purpose: on the one hand, drew attention to the presence of thousands of priests in the world, on the other hand, was a message addressed directly to them - "Thank you for the work they are doing." Young decided to make the rosary a sign of solidarity with the priests.
This year young people from Madrid already live World Youth Day. The fourth part of May Feelings - which is not by accident appeared May 1 - about a man who looked young. His secret was his love for women, relationship with the Mother of God. His secret - the prayer of the rosary. With a rosary in his hand - changing the world, made it better and more equitable. John Paul II - because of the question - saying the rosary taught to believe, love, forgive, apologize and continue till the end. Today is blessed.
From YouTube to prayer
first part of May Feelings watched more than 521,000 people. Movie made a year later, about 426 thousand over the next 404,000. Last, recently present on the Internet, over 181 thousand.
clips real power, however, lies not in the number of registered access, but in people who have helped to rediscover the power and importance of prayer of the rosary. People write to us that under the influence May Feelings returned to pray the rosary. - Shared with Rodriguez. - Youth Group began to pray the rosary for us to continue our work ... I think that without the intercession of Mary and the Holy Spirit would not have reached this film to many people. It was independent from us.
John Paul II spoke to the youth: "You are the hope of the Church. You are my hope! As you can see, try not to disappoint him.
