Its a joy to watch this film bring alive the pages of the Gospel, said Cardinal Donald W. Wuerl, archbishop of Washington, D.C.
To prepare viewers for the films release, the Archdiocese of Washington has created a series of seven online catechetical videos linked to scenes in the movie.

“Downey is grateful that Catholic leaders can appreciate the vision behind the film. The project, she said, is tied in with everything our new pope is speaking about this new evangelization and using all the new means we have to reach people with the message of Christ.
