Why Am I Catholic?
This video is by by Katerina Marie Cabello whose blog is Evangelical Catholicism. The video slideshow gives six reasons for being Catholic: 1) the Eucharist, 2) the Church, 3) the Sacraments, 4) Mary, 5) Marriage (actual and spiritual), and 6) Communion of Saints. The song for the video is "Jesus Christ You are my Life," the theme song from the 2005 World Youth Day.
Enjoy!

Nice video Jeremy. Truly awesome and inspiring! And yes, the song was sung at the recent WYD - hearing it live is more electrifying! :)
One point though. She missed an important element - community - and that makes #7 (which is symbolic of wholeness, completeness). Our faith is never a solo effort, as testified by our fellow brothers- and sisters-in-Christ.
Yep its the theme song for WYD 2005 in Cologne.
Hmm...the aspect of "Community" is covered under #6 Communion of Saints. Here a very important point about the presence of Ecclesia Triumphans is made. We (Ecclesia Militans) together with the Saints in Heaven (Ecclesia Triumphans) worship the Word made Flesh. This is an extremely significant aspect of community that many forget.
