The 15 Promises of Our Lady to Christians Who Recite the Rosary
1. Whoever shall faithfully serve Me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.
2. I promise My special protection and the greatest graces to all who shall recite the Rosary.
3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.

The untitled project will be produced by Mpower Pictures, the spirituality-minded banner founded by former Mel Gibson producing partner Steve McEveety. The banner also is behind recent Iranian drama “The Stoning of Soraya M.”
There is not yet a director or green light on the Guadalupe project. But McEveety said that the significance of the event was enough to merit a big-screen treatment. “Guadalupe changed the course of history for the indigenous peoples of Mexico,” he said. “It had a transformative effect on their culture and especially their faith.”
