YouTube Can Help Pitch for Priesthood
Just the other day while I happened to be visiting someone in the hospital, I bumped into my friend Fr. Stashu, from the old neighborhood. He was eager to talk to me.

“I want to ask you about that You Tuber thing,” he said, closing his sick call briefcase.
“Oh, you mean YouTube — the popular video sharing site on the internet?”
“Yes. My altar boys are all talking about it, and I don’t see what’s the big fuss.”
“Well Father, it’s a great place to promote the priesthood and religious life. As a matter of fact, I was just looking at a video that some guy named ScottXfan made called ‘Catholic Priests.’ This three-minute music video is a great presentation of the priesthood. And guess what? It got 5,500 views in two years.”
“That’s more than all the preaching I do on the priesthood in that amount of time,” Fr. Stashu said.
“What’s more, it’s set to music that enhances the still shots of good priests celebrating Mass and distributing the sacraments. The whole effect is very inspiring. Even more moving than a whole lot of words.
“Tak,” he said, harkening back to his native Polish. “Sometimes beauty does more than yakking.”
“Since videos are easier to make nowadays, and since they can be distributed on the internet, you can reach tens of thousands of people at a low cost,” I said.
“A very good thing,” he said, “I’ll have to call you about this.” He bade farewell, mentioning something about going to his next communion call.
