New Catholic Evangelism Video

Perhaps anticipating the recent Pew study on religion, evangelical Catholics in Phoenix have started a campaign to re-evangelize the 10% of Americans that were raised Catholic, but later left their Church. If successful, the campaign will likely result in Catholics increasing to about 37% of the U.S. population. The Protestant majority would also likely fall below 50% as significant numbers of former Catholics were included in the Protestant segment of the Pew study.

In addition to a website, the group has produced three short videos and are distributing the videos via YouTube and viral marketing channels. In just one month's time, the video has already been viewed over 7,000 times. If sustained, the annual viewership will roughly equal the current number of Christians converting to Catholicism in the U.S. each year and has the potential for doubling the rate of conversion to the Catholic Church in the U.S.

UPDATE

Due to a copyright infringement, the YouTube version is no longer available. You may view the video named "Epic" here:

Hopefully, the owners will realize the greater audience offered by YouTube and have a change of heart. Pray for them.

(Personally, I'd offload the bandwidth to Google's YouTube server farms, but its not my site.)
