The Catholics Come Home "Epic" TV commercial emphasizes the history, beauty, spirituality and accomplishments of the Catholic Church over her 2,000-year history. It illustrates how the universal Church is comprised of all races, ages, cultures and socioeconomic levels. It combines important factual information with breathtaking imagery and is an invitation for fallen away Catholics to consider coming back to the Church.
Please share with all your friends and help us spread the message.
I’m a Christian because of his saving grace.
As am I. I would add that it is the one and only church that can claim it was established by Jesus Christ. All the others are either splinter groups disagreeing with Church teaching (protestant) or those established by humans often claiming to have been informed by either Angels or Christ. I was very fortunate to have been raised a Catholic though I fell away for many years. Thank you Lord for giving us Your church.
Amen to that!
When your past is bigger than your future, you are nearing the end.
God has no grandchildren. Just children.
The thousands that are “returning” are a drop in the bucket compared to the millions leaving around the world.
“I would add that it is the one and only church that can claim it was established by Jesus Christ.”
AGREED!
What an incredible gift our Lord has given us: a Church in which we can intimately receive Him through the Holy Eucharist!
I’m a Christian because of his saving grace.

So am I ...AND I am a member of His Catholic Church....because of His saving and generous grace. ;-)
bkmk
Commercials show only the good stuff, right? People are suckers for deep voices, good music, great photography, and a compelling story. Put them all together and the sheep start flocking. Kinda like Obama’s campaigns.
AMEN!
The greatest gift given to me by my parents
I am a member of His Church as well, and it is an organization now bound by the traditions of men or stone walls. His church is the body of believers. We are members of many different congregations, some Catholic, some Baptist, Foursquare, Assembly of God, etc.
Comparing a commercial calling Catholics back to the church to the Obama campaigns... interesting. Seems you have an axe to grind against the Catholic church?
I’ve seen this video before. It’s a good one. I think it came out a few years ago when Benedict became Pope and called for a new kind of evangelization.
I pretty much agree with you on the following: “I am a member of His Church as well. His church is the body of believers. We are members of many different congregations, some Catholic, some Baptist, Foursquare, Assembly of God, etc.”
However, I refer to those who are not Catholic as my separated brothers and sisters in Christ.
May the peace of the Risen Christ be ever with you.
Different people are drawn to churches for different reasons. Some want food, fun, and frolic. Some want social networking and promises of prosperity. Some want culture, beauty, history, tradition.
Some want nothing more than to join with others in humble service to their King.
...or, perhaps, it was inspired by the Holy Spirit.
I saw one of those during college football season with Lou Holtz, which is odd because Notre Dame is moving away from Catholic teachings.
amen
The church of Jesus Christ is founded on HIM, it is composed of the saved..
The NT church had no priests, no mass, no 7 sacraments , no "holy water",no prayer to "saints", no immaculate conception, etc... Rome is a church of apostasy from the gospel
