I was just watching the coverage on CNN (a channel I rarely go to), and Christine Amanpour was talking with a priest that I think is the young priest that helped Mel Gibson with making "The Passion of Christ"---

I think he even wrote a book about the experience---anyway, I think he is a very charismatic person and if the American Catholic church wants to try to "improve" the image of priests, they should but this guy in some kind of public relation capacity....

I am not even a Catholic and I found myself really enjoying him speak about the movie and now the whole choosing of another Pope process..

OOPs, I just turned on CNN again, and the priest that Christine Amanpour is talking to is NOT the same priest that helped Mel Gibson---

he looks a lot like him, though, from what I remember, and with my memory, who knows, LOL.

%%%%

His name is John Bartunek, and has an amazing story of how he came to the priesthood.

After seeing him once, I wish that he would get more exposure on TV. He could be a real asset to the spiritual needs of our country. His book is "Inside the Passion."
