Eduardo,
It is amazing to see there is hope for change in this world.
The reason I say this is because of the amazing change I
have seen in you through your interviews you have given
recently. I remember watching your first novelas and your
personally of the same selfish attractive famous male. After
hearing the changes in your personal life I want to let
you know that I am very happy to see these changes not only
because your life has now began to change for good, but
also because you are a role model for the children (our
next generation). They are our future and perhaps by listening
to you, our world will change to a better place. Congratulations
on your new life and I wish you all success in all of your
future doings.

Dear
Eduardo, I have just viewed your interviews on your website.
I have done this in response to a request from a family
member that lives in Southwest Texas that has seen you on
TV promoting your latest film “Bella.” I must tell you that
I was pleasantly surprised to hear your sincere comments
in relation to your conversion from “religion” to “relationship”
with our heavenly Father. Your strong commitment to adhering
to your convictions and your desire to go a step further
and make a positive difference is more than commendable.
I too have experienced a conversion and have been a Christian
for over 25 yrs. I understand the change that has taken
place in you and I also know that when one is put in a position
of having to take a stand, often times there are repercussions.
I do realize that you have already endured a time of testing
and I am sure some trials as well. But because of your unwillingness
to compromise you have been blessed with this beautiful
film! I wish you the very best, and I do hope that you have
a circle of friends that pray for you on a regular basis.
For as I’m sure you have experienced, often times after
great victory a sense of vulnerability can emerge, and having
good prayer support can really make a difference. I am the
founder of “Peace Ministries”( website not complete ) and
am currently in the process of launching the first of many
projects with a focus on prayer, media, and a desire to
make a difference in Southwest Texas, there is such a great
need for a move of God there. . Thank you for stepping out
and making this film, for it speaks of one of the most important
issues on the heart of God our Father. What an awesome blessing
to be used by The Lord in this manner! May the lord continue
to bless you and all your efforts.

Dear
Eduardo, I had never heard of you by name before, but came
across it on myCatholic.com in an article about a new movie
that promotes the dignity of life. So I checked out the
website for Bella and also started reading more about you.
As I learned about your life, my eyes filled with tears.
In this society, it is hard to believe that someone who
had found the fame and wealth that you had could conform
his life for a greater good...the greatest good! I am thrilled
for you that you have embraced your Catholic faith and have
committed yourself to remaining consistent with your beliefs
in your professional life. Hollywood needs you. Believe
that your testimony will inspire many people. And you're
a Knight!! (my father is a Knight) It is a fantastic organization.
Congratulations, Eduardo! I will pray for your continued
success, both professionally and personally. God Bless You,
Linda Cristina Paz
Hello!
I watched the program of EWTN last Thursday. Your testimony
touched my heart. After the program, I promised the Lord
that I will follow him. God bless you and receive my greetings
from Puerto Rico.

García Giménez, I just encountered your website
yesterday and am still surfing the links. This is the most
in-depth celebrity website I have ever encountered. You
should win a website award for the appearance, easy navigation,
content and pictures - you certainly win my vote! It is
filled with so much important information - I am thoroughly
amazed! I reside in Toronto, Canada where Bella won the
film festival award last year. I am anxiously awaiting the
October release of the film which I hope will also be available
in Toronto. Sincerely,
Audrey

Hello
Eduardo, My name is Araceli. I am 28 years old and am Mexican
American. I have followed your career since you were in
Novelas in Mexico. Especially loved you in "Alma Rebelde".
I also loved you when you were in "Kairo". I just saw your
interview with Jorge Ramos on "Al Punto". I have to say
that I am so proud of your work and what you stand for.
It's so refreshing to see your pursuance of better roles
for Latinos. We need more people like you in Hollywood.
It's tiring to see Latinas portrayed as "the help or as
amantes" and Latinos as "mujeriegos". The fact that you
look for roles that really portray us in a good way is so
commending. Something else I find so refreshing about you
is your religous beliefs and how it has changed your life.
Being so driven by religion and family values is so hard
to find. It's nice to see a young successful man such as
yourself lead this type of life. Five years later you still
strive to have a better life. I imagine it's difficult to
keep your beliefs in the type of industry you work in. Please
don't change. Keep up the extraordinary work and thank you
for believing in our community. Eres un orgullo Latino.
Para mi en lo personal eras un orgullo Mexican. Bendiciones
y los mejores deseos,
Araceli Rodriguez
Eduardo,
I first saw you on una telenovela maybe 5 or 7 years ago
and I thought to myself "wow he is very handsome" of course
with the good looks came the undying ego. In today's society,especially
Hollywood, it is determined by those of us who are not celebrities,
that the good looking people of hollywood have it all. Fame,
money, love etc. Years went by and I really didn't see much
of you on American Television or many novelas. You came
out with Chasing Papi and I think that was the last time
I saw you in anything. About 2 weeks ago at 3am in the morning,
I was flipping through the channels and saw you on the Catholic
channel speaking of your life turning events and how you
had come to Christ. I couldn't believe it. It is always
wonderful when a fellow brother or sister come to Christ.
But when it is a celebrity who openly talks about it, it
just shows that there may be people in Hollywood who are
real and not fake. I just wanted to let you know how happy
I am that you have turned your life to God and are blessing
others by speaking of HIS word and giving them encouragement.
If more of Hollywood would do that, than many more would
come to Christ. Many actors may or may not realize, but
you are icons and to some idols. Thank you for finding the
Lord and sharing HIS blessings. With my love,
Janina Escobar Linneken

it, for that i respect you more both in your personal life

Eduardo,
congratulations on your recent film BELLA. I attended the
premiere last night in San Antonio and it was a fantastic,
uplifting, beautiful film. I had the pleasure of meeting
Alejandro as well. Congratulations to you both! Again, congratulations
on BELLA and I will certainly spread the word about the
wonderful role you play in this film.

Dear
Eduardo, It has been about 45+ years since I wrote to a
celebrity. And then just once, to Captain Kangaroo, and
in crayon. It was a genuine pleasure and great surprise
to see the work you are doing in Mexico. It is truly impressive.
I noticed that you were wearing the Lionheart Apparel cap,
so I sent your website link to Tarek Saab, its founder because
both of you obviously have the same perspective on life.
I hope you two will connect, if you already haven't. I will
pledge my prayerful support to your ministry and will follow
up with a contribution. Please know you and your loved ones
will be remembered in my daily Mass and Office. With best
wishes.
I
am Father Russell E. Smith Senior Director, Ethics The Catholic
Health Association St. Louis MO
Dear
Eduardo: HI. Congratulations on your success. I live in
Miami and will see your movie "Bella" this weekend. I cant
wait. I saw an interview you did some days ago with Jaime
Bayly and I was so impressed by how well you spoke, your
kind heart, your foundation, overall, I was impressed by
you. I bought the movie Chasing Papi right after I saw the
interview, and also found the video you made with Jennifer
Lopez. You are very handsome. I love you smile and your
eyes. CONGRATULATIONS and hope to see more of your work
in the future. All the best to you.
