My name is Father Sergio Fita.
There are few times in our lives when we are presented with
a unique opportunity to be a part of something extraordinary.
This, my friends, is one of those times.
I'm calling upon you to join with us in an incredible journey
and through your generosity fund this ambitious feature-length documentary,
the Way of Saint James.
Catholics in Action and the award-winning Grassroots Films
have partnered to create a powerful documentary
and share the unparalleled beauty and redemptive story
of the Way of Saint James.
This forty day 500 mile journey by foot
was originally travelled by Saint Francis of Assisi over 800 years ago.
Today, twelve men from different backgrounds and nationalities
are preparing to abandon comfort and subject themselves
to a physical and emotional pilgrimage to tell a new story
of the search for spiritual meaning.
The Way of Saint James is one of the most sacred journeys
in the history of the Church.
Unfortunately its original meaning is being eroded.
This film will re-introduce the beauty,
history, and sanctity of a journey that has been forgotten.
But this is more than a film. It's an inspiration for a new generation,
a tool to open minds and hearts to the beauty of redemption.
In early 2015 millions around the world will have the opportunity
to experience this film in theaters, on Netflix, iTunes, and through social media.
This is an ambitious story to tell.
Together and through your generosity
we will raise 1.4 million dollars to create this important film.
I invite you to be a part of this opportunity to share the extraordinary story of
the Way of Saint James.
