TRIBUTE TO ALL SAINTS

This movie is my tribute to our great heroes, the saints. Set to the song by Casting Crowns, "Lifesong," this tribute includes images of ... all » ... all » ... all » saints from the Apostles to the present day, meeting its crescendo in the allelujah verses with images of the Queen of Saints. Towards the end of the video, I pay tribute to some personal heroes whose causes for beatification and/or canonization are still pending. There is only one tragedy: Not to be a saint.

"The difference between the Gospel written and the lives of the saints is the same as the difference between music written on a page and music played out loud." - Saint Augustine

[davemyers1977]

Also, as regards praying to Saints - when we speak to the saints we ask them to pray for us. As the Letter of James notes "the prayer of the righteous man availeth much." When we "pray" to saints it would be the same as my coming to your father, who I'm sure is a good and righteous man, and asking him to pray for me. The saints are our elder brothers and sisters in Christ. We certainly do not pray to them in the same way we pray to Christ or the Father, and we don't worship them in any way.

Boy somebody needs to study some history. Check Saint Augustine or any other source from the Early Church Fathers and you will find that the Christians who believed in orthodox things like the Trinity (try finding that word in the bible by the way - you won't, and yet you believe in it don't you?) referred to themselves as Catholics, that is, members of the Church that was One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic.

Awesome video, both inspiring and heartwarming. It makes feel a desire to become holy, humble, compassionate, and courageous; essentially a disciple of Jesus.

Thanks again and God bless :)

Hey I wanted to thank you so much for your comments - I am glad that you were moved by this, it is one of the best things I have put together. Thanks for your encouragement!

You bet we'll never change. Why would we deny these grest gifts Our Heavenly Father gave us to know His Son ever more intimately. We've believed the same thing since 33AD. When did your denomination start, and how many times has it changed it's beliefs since then? ONE FAITH! Ephesians 4

All argument set aside...Seems like you really love Jesus, take this as an open invitation to know Him more intimately in the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church!

@Baunkuikui You are mistaken! True Cathoilc per-say didn't write the Bible! But with out question it was the Catholic church that determined what books were inspired and hense fourth belonged in the Bible! This is a Historical fact! Nowhere in the Bible does it say which book belong to the Bible ! This was determined Through the Guidance of the Holly Spirit, By the Cathoilc Church!

Most of the non catholic pple are wonder why we have statue of the saints inside our church; and the reason why; it's just to remind us all those good pple who use to live their whole life 4 jesus and did the good work of the lord..Sometimes when u look at the statue of the saints; u want to be like them and do all the good work that they did.

I really liked your video, it reminded me of all of those who have made great sacrifices for the good of others. Please Lord make me worthy of thy holy presence.
