Mobile Apostle – Empowering Christians
We live in a world starved for truth, starved for light. Our world is one shaken up by suffering and darkness. The deeper we learn to look at our world, the more we realize that we live in darkness. The darkness is so thick that many have lost all hope of ever seeing a light.
The Good News is that Jesus Christ, our Light (John 1:4) is risen and alive!
He is among us today and He calls upon His faithful disciples today as He did two thousand years ago, to be the light of the world (Matt 5:14)by carrying Him into the world, wherever they go.Today, in the 21st Millennium, with new developments in Social Media technologies, we now have new and exciting means of responding to our Saviour’s call to share our faith and to be the light so much desired by this world.
Ever since the Second Vatican Council, the Holy Mother Church has recognized that the media of social communication,
can be of great service to mankind, since they greatly contribute to men’s entertainment and instruction as well as to the spread and support of the Kingdom of God.
- Pope Paul VI, Inter Mirifica
To remind us the calling of our Saviour, and to reassure us of the call of Pope Paul VI in Inter Mirifica, Our Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI has issued a special message to the youth:
It falls, in particular, to young people, who have an almost spontaneous affinity for the new means of communication, to take on the responsibility for the evangelization of this “digital continent”.
- Pope Benedict XVI, 43rd World Communication Day Message
At Calissia Media it is our mission and commitment to our users and clients to leverage the latest and greatest Social Media technologies out there, to provide new, attractive and efficient ways which will permit all faithful children of Holy Mother Church to evangelize the “digital continent” and be the light of the world by sharing the beautiful and rich Deposit of our Faith, handed down to us from our Saviour Jesus Christ Himself, the only begotten Son of God.
And so it our great pleasure to introduce to you our brainchild – MobileApostle -
a Mobile Social Media application which aggregates some of the most popular Christian articles, audio and video clips on the Internet.
With MobileApostle, you can always stay up to date with fresh content, from trustworthy sources, faithful to the Magisterium of the Church. In addition to keeping you in the loop, MobileApostle gives you the opportunity to share your faith with the world. If you like a certain article, video or audio clip, you can share it on Twitter, Facebook or you can email it to your friends, right from your mobile phone.
We join ourselves to our Holy Father’s prayer for this year’s World Communication Day, and we trust and hope that “the Lord make all of you enthusiastic heralds of the Gospel in the new “agorà” which the current media are opening up“.
