Fr. Stan Fortuna has been playing music since the 2nd grade when his father gave him his first instrument for Christmas - a red electric guitar! His love for music grew into early adulthood as he began the life long journey of learning the art of improvising by practicing countless hours and playing lots of sessions in the New York area. It was during that time that Fortuna began hearing his true calling in life and was eventually ordained a Catholic priest. He is one of the eight original members of the Community of Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, a community established in the Archdiocese of New York under the jurisdiction of John Cardinal O'Connor in 1987.

Fr. Stan established Francesco Productions (www.francescoproductions.com) in 1987, a non-profit company which produces his music, teaching tapes, videos and DVD's. From Contemporary Christian to Jazz, Folk, Reggae and Rap, this incredible musician and composer has produced music for the enjoyment of all ages and walks of life. He has released numerous CD's of original music and standards, arranged in his very special style. All proceeds from sales go to the Community's hands-on work with the poor.

Although Fr. Stan lives in the South Bronx where he serves the poor and needy families, he is internationally known for his music as well as for his powerful preaching. Fr. Stan travels extensively, performing his music and proclaiming the Gospel at conferences, retreats, and both national and international youth prayer festivals. He has been a featured speaker at Franciscan University's High School Age Youth Conferences and Youth 2000 events for several years. He has also appeared numerous times on EWTN's Life on the Rock as well as the FOCUS Worldwide TV Network.

In January 1999, Fr. Stan was asked to preach and perform at the youth rally in St. Louis during Pope John Paul's visit. He is now serving full time in the preaching apostolate using his gift of music, a powerful means to reach deep into the heart and soul of both the young and old throughout the world.

ADORATION - Released June 2003
Album Description:
When people hear "adoration" the obvious questions arise: "Is it a Eucharistic CD?" "Is it about the Blessed Sacrament?" The answer to these questions and others like it is "Yes... Of course..." Yet, what does that mean? The magnitude of the awesomeness of the Eucharistic Mystery gets ignored by some and isolated by others; ignored by people who don't believe and isolated from the culture by people who live and construct a private world in harmony with their religious convictions. Not a good thing.

Both of these experiences - the ignoring of the Mystery by some and the isolation of the Mystery by others - are being addressed with the message of the CD. I'm hoping, praying and intending the CD to be a tool, a means to the end of one of the highest human acts - adoration - thus fostering and strengthening communion with God which will foster and strengthen communion with all peoples. Please pray it will be a help for us who spend time in the Presence of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament and a help for us to live out the spirituality of communion in the heart of the Church and the heart of the contemporary culture as the Holy Father JP II has been stressing and living and challenging us with for years! Check out the following conclusion from JP; "Therefore, I have maintained that a faith that does not effect a persons culture is a faith 'not fully embraced, not entirely thought out, not faithfully lived.'"

Peace and Blessings 4 ever in Jesus and Mary...fr stan+...
