Developing this application has been for its creator, Germán Darío Tamayo Zuluaga, Systems Engineer and Love Ties missionary Mariano, a response to “special call the Lord not to ‘bury the talents’ given to us. “
” I have always believed that what the Lord has given us as a profession or occupation must also give fruit in evangelization. “
Speaking to CNA on May 21, Germain said miCatecismo “born as a personal response to the call of Pope Benedict XVI to re-discover the Catechism in this Year of Faith, and what better than being able to load everywhere on our mobile to enrich with lights gives us the Magisterium of the Church. “
miCatecismo What sets other applications available for Android is” completely in Spanish, is free and does not require internet to run allowing always have it available. “
For German is” amazing “that in smartphone application stores” can not find anything related to faith. “
“But rather than seeing it as something negative, it is a great opportunity to develop many things every Catholic should have on hand,” he said.
miCatecismo creator said that in the world of application development for smart phones “find more possibilities than difficulties.”
“Internet is very easy to overcome technical obstacles, for example, because you will always find someone who has the answer to your problem, in terms of programming or design, “he said.
Difficulties in this work, he said,” can go level spiritual warfare where temptations come to abandon the project, or ‘voices’ you say’ do not cares, and someone else will ‘or maybe’ why so much effort if no one valued ‘, but if we are clear to Whom we serve, we go. “
Tamayo recommended German Catholics” who do not know if getting or not in this world of mobile application development is simply not to be afraid. Never believe that this idea occurred to them not worth it “.
” Do not have to invent the new Facebook or the new Twitter, “he said, because” thousands of people may need that they now have in their heads although you would look small, useless or simple “.
Germán sometimes regretted that” we value very little we can do. “
” Think of the missionary and evangelizing action St. Paul had done or San Francisco Javier with the media we have today, we can not bury our talent, “he said.
miCatecismo creator has a plan for future development projects of evangelization for iOS which is the operating system of the iPhone, Apple iPods and iPads, as well as Windows Phone and Blackberry.
While plans to continue working on the dissemination of “essential documents for every Catholic,” Germán is working even wider applications for Catholics.
“For example, what would seem at any time in the world to see if you are around a Catholic church with their schedules, or a place of adoration, “he asked.
advance Unintentionally more details, Germain said it will continue working” to make good applications especially useful for Catholics around the world. “
