New episode in production!

“Better late than never”, so goes the saying! But when you’re swimming upstream as we are by creating true-life stories with a great emphasis on faith, things take a little longer to pull off. However, we are happy to announce that pre-production work has begun on “The Saint Augustine Story”, andwe are very excited about.

You may wonder why we have chosen such an intellectual saint. The fact is, the funding for this particular character came in and we sense it is an act of divine providence! Besides, we hope the story will whet people’s appetite to learn more about this important person in church history.

And don’t anticipate a “heady”, boring story. Saint Augustine went through a lot before he surrendered himself to God and dedicated himself to His service!

We’ll be posting updates as we move along, which you are sure to enjoy. And if you would like to see other characters’ stories go into production, please pray for it.

We have Heaven and its inhabitants to help us, so please bring your faith-filled prayers before God’s throne. We sure need ‘em!

And as a reminder, we’re doing a lot for our younger audience. Check out http://www.brotherfrancisonline.com/blog for some exciting news about “Brother Francis: The Rosary”,the third episode in the “Brother Francis” series.

God bless you!
